| Summary: | As an important market for American goods and services, as well as an excellent base of operations for business with the People's Republic of China and other East Asian nations, Hong Kong offers many commercial attractions, including totally free markets, a modern global communications system, major banking facilities, an extensive transportation network, and skilled English-speaking personnel. While foreign businesses can easily begin operations in Hong Kong, a basic knowledge of Hong Kong and its ground rules vastly improves firms' capabilities and prospects.<br> Prepared by the American Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong--an international group of investors representing over 1000 foreign companies operating in Hong Kong--Doing Business in Today's Hong Kong provides an essential source of information for newcomers to Hong Kong and veterans alike. It includes articles by attorneys from multinational firms, accountants, members of executive search firms, consultants with Hong Kong Government-subvented business support organizations, bankers, textile and apparel manufacturers, China trade consultants, and independent entrepreneurs based in the territory but also holding global investments.<br> Focusing on the issues which business people in Hong Kong face, the contributors discuss what makes Hong Kong such a crucial meeting place for the economic powers of the world and how Hong Kong has begun to develop its role in the broad spectrum of industries in which it participates. Doing Business in Today's Hong Kong will help people both in Hong Kong and the United States, as well as in other countries, to understand more fully the business opportunities in the world's foremost free and fair trade city market. |
