Introduction

The geographical advantage

Hong Kong is located on the China coast, at the meeting point of two dynamic regions: Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia. Its most important natural resource is its spectacular harbour.

Hong Kong links East and West, North and South, by rail and road, by sea and air, and in cyberspace. The new Hong Kong International Airport at Chek Lap Kok, which opened in July 1998, is one of the largest and most modern in the world.
