Favourable Geographical Position
Hong Kong's highly favorable geographical position and entrepot trading opportunities are wealth-generating assets. It has a superb sheltered natural harbor. -
Skilled Labour Force

Banking Sector
A financial centre of East Asia - it has one of the highest concentrations of banking institutions in the world. 71 of the largest 100 banks in the world have an operation in Hong Kong.
Hong Kong remains the world's freest economy, for
the 12th year in a row. The report pays tribute to the city's commitment
to free trade and open markets, and the elimination of barriers to
trade and investment.
Gaining support from the Government, it helps in
enhancing the security of property rights; access to sound money;
freedom to trade internationally; and regulation of credit, labour and
business. This is a large contributing factor which made Hong Kong very attractive to foreign companies to set up a Buying office here.

Beijing
Everyone is excited about Beijing especially after
the city really improved infrastructure for the Olympics. The Chinese
capital boasts:
-
A huge population of expatriates
-
Numerous foreign tourists
- Increasing numbers of diplomatic delegations
- Countless international organizations
- Hundreds of corporate representative offices
Beijing is not only the political, cultural and
educational center of China, but also the focus of economic information
and business opportunities.
With the Chinese economy still growing at a very
strong rate, and with the Chinese Govt. investing heavily on
infrastructure, there is a lot of purchasing power in Beijing.
Shanghai
Shanghai is currrently the major business hub for
China mainland. Major banking and service businesses are strong there
and there is a very good business environment.
-
Bustling financial markets
- Huge expatriate population
- Lively social scene
Hence, Shanghai is very appealing to many business people getting set up in China.
Grade A office space in the eastern part of the
city, known as Pudong, had a year-on-year increase exceeding 26%. The
study suggests that the costs of office space will keep rising in
response to demand, which is very high in this most modern and
international of Chinese cities.
Our office in Shanghai is in Zhabhei district to
North of Shanghai near the N. train station, but is still only a 10-20
minute drive from town center.
