Hong Kong Tops at Enabling Trade
When it comes to enabling trade, Hong Kong leads the world, according to a report by the World Economic Forum (WEF) that compared 118 industrialized and emerging economies.

Financial Secretary, Mr. John C Tsang, said the report "demonstrates strong positive recognition of Hong Kong's open, transparent and efficient trading infrastructure."

The WEF's first-ever Global Enabling Trade Report 2008 is the result of years of research into factors, policies and services of national economies in trade facilitation; and the Enabling Trade Index covers four areas, namely, market access, border administration, transport and communications infrastructure, and business environment.
