Hong Kong business delegation gives Belgian entrepreneurs insight into opportunities offered by Hong Kong's regional gateway role (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
     A delegation of members of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce (CGCC), Hong Kong, led by the Chairman of CGCC, Dr Jonathan Choi, had exchanges with Belgian entrepreneurs and senior representatives of business organisations and institutions at a networking luncheon in Brussels hosted by the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in Brussels (HKETO, Brussels) on September 18 (Brussels time).

     The CGCC delegation, which is visiting Brussels, Paris and London during its European tour, will take part in the Hong Kong Trade Development Council's signature promotion "Think Business, Think Hong Kong" in Paris, France on September 19.

     Being a veteran Hong Kong entrepreneur well-versed in the international and Mainland Chinese markets, Dr Choi shared his insights in his keynote speech on the latest business environment in Asia, importance of free trade and the role of Hong Kong in regional collaboration.

     Dr Choi elaborated that Hong Kong keeps to be a global business and financial centre with free economic system, low tax regime, business-friendly environment, as well as a wealth of talents and professional services. Hong Kong has been back on the world stage and will go on serving as the gateway for the European companies to do business in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) and enter the vast markets in Mainland China and Asia.

     In her welcoming remarks, Deputy Representative of HKETO, Brussels, Miss Fiona Li, said the future is bright for Hong Kong, which will continue to have the strong support from the Mainland China while retaining the unique advantages under "one country, two systems".

     "We do our utmost to provide the best business environment for near 9 000 overseas and Mainland companies established in Hong Kong to thrive, on a level playing field with our local companies," Miss Li said, adding that Hong Kong is a safe and convenient base from which foreign companies can venture into GBA, Mainland China, the rest of Asia and ASEAN countries.
