*********************************************************************
Mr Lee welcomed Dr Skerrit and his delegation to Hong Kong. Mr Lee said that Hong Kong is the world's freest economy and maintains its position as third globally and first in Asia Pacific as an international financial centre according to the newly published Global Financial Centres Index. The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government will actively leverage the dual advantage of having national and global opportunities under the "one country, two systems" principle, deepen international exchanges and co-operation, further explore emerging markets including the Commonwealth of Dominica, and attract more enterprises to use Hong Kong as the platform to go global. He expected that Hong Kong and the Commonwealth of Dominica will explore more co-operation opportunities and enhance bilateral trade and business exchanges.
Mr Lee said that the Commonwealth of Dominica is a Belt and Road economy, while Hong Kong is a key link in the Belt and Road Initiative. The HKSAR Government is committed to serving as a functional platform for the Belt and Road Initiative, leveraging the advantages of being closely connected to both the Mainland and the world, and promoting participation in green co-operation in the Initiative. He welcomed enterprises from the Commonwealth of Dominica to leverage Hong Kong's role as a "super connector" and "super value-adder" and its highly internationalised and market-oriented business environment with its pool of professional services talent to explore overseas and Mainland markets, jointly seizing the opportunities from the Belt and Road Initiative to achieve mutual benefits and win-win outcomes.
