HONG KONG BUSINESS PROSPECTS

W

12 OCTOBER 1993

Points to make with the press

- Massive infrastructure projects, including the new airport, provide substantial opportunities for business.

Increases in disposable income have created a large market for consumer goods, both in Hong Kong and in Southern China.

Hong Kong offers unparalleled opportunities in its own market, as a gateway to China, and as a regional base.
