Hong Kong will join hands with the adjacent Guangdong Province in the Chinese
mainland to organize a day-long on-line investment seminar on June 29, a
government press release said in Hong Kong Saturday.
The Greater Pearl River
Delta (HK-Guangdong) On-line Investment Seminar 2004 is the first such event
ever organized by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) government
and the Guangdong government.
It highlights the advantages of using Hong Kong
as a service platform and Guangdong as a manufacturing base, and aims to attract
companies or individuals interested in investing in Hong Kong and Guangdong,
particularly potential investors from North America, Europe, Japan and Southeast
Asia.
The seminar will feature speeches by senior government officials, such
as Hong Kong Chief Secretary for Administration Donald Tsang, Director-General
of InvestHK Mike Rowse and Guangdong Department of Foreign Trade and Economic
Co-operation Director-General Liang Yaowen. Prominent businessmen will also
share their experience on investing in Hong Kong and Guangdong.
Experts from
InvestHK, the Trade and Industry Department and the Trade Development Council
will be available to answer questions on investment. Guangdong officials will
also address questions on investment in the province.
The seminar will be
hosted on the Greater Pearl River Delta website, which has been created to
promote the advantages of investing in the region. The website is an innovative
and effective communications tool to reach potential investors from within and
outside the region.
