Hong Kong, described as a 'barren rock' over 150 years ago, has become a world-class financial, trading and business centre and, indeed, a great world city.
Hong Kong has no natural resources, except one of the finest deep-water ports in the world. A hardworking, adaptable and well-educated workforce of about 3.5 million, coupled with entrepreneurial flair, is the bedrock of Hong Kong's productivity and creativity.
Hong Kong became a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People's Republic of China on July 1, 19, after a century and a half of British administration. Under Hong Kong's constitutional document, the Basic Law, the existing economic, legal and social system will be maintained for 50 years. The SAR enjoys a high degree of autonomy except in defence and foreign affairs.
Location
Situated at the southeastern tip of China, Hong Kong is ideally positioned at the centre of rapidly developing East Asia. With a total area of 1 103 square kilometres, it covers Hong Kong Island, the Kowloon peninsula just opposite, and the New Territories the more rural section of Hong Kong, which also includes 262 outlying islands. [ HKSAR Map ] [ Hong Kong in its Regional Setting ]
Population
Hong Kong's population was about 6.8 million at the end of 2003. The population density is 6 300 people per square kilometre. Hong Kong has a large foreign population of about 523 880. The top three nationalities come from the Philippines (132 770), Indonesia (95 460) and the USA (31 330).
Language
Chinese and English are the official languages. English is widely used in the Government, the legal system and by the professional and business sectors. There is no shortage of well-educated competent bilingual or even trilingual professionals who speak English, Cantonese and Putonghua. These are vital staff for any enterprise trading in Hong Kong or doing business with the Mainland and Taiwan.
Climate
Hong Kong's climate is sub-tropical, tending towards the temperate for nearly half the year. Temperatures can drop below 10 degrees Celsius in winter and exceed 31 degrees Celsius in summer. About 90 per cent of the rainfall occurs between April and September. [ Hong Kong Ovservatory ]
Major International Trading Centre
Hong Kong is the world's 11th largest trading economy, the world's 6th largest foreign exchange market, the world's 12th largest banking centre, and Asia's 2nd biggest stock market. Hong Kong is one of the world's top exporters of garments, watches and clocks, toys, games, electronic products and certain light industrial products.
Global Services Centre
Hong Kong was the world's 10th largest exporter of services in 2003. Civil iation, shipping, trel and tourism, trade-related services, and various financial and banking services are the main components of trade in services. The prices of many services are among the lowest in the world.
International Corporate Base

The major types of business carried on by the regional headquarters include the wholesale/retail and import/export trades, other business services (e.g. accounting, advertising and legal services), finance and banking, manufacturing and transport and related services.
Free Trade and Free Market
Hong Kong advocates and practises free trade — a free and liberal investment regime, the absence of trade barriers, no discrimination against overseas investors, freedom of capital movement, well established rule of law, transparent regulations, and low and predictable taxation.
Small Government
Hong Kong has a small and efficient structure. Corporate and personal taxes are quite low, and simple to calculate. The HKSAR Government is well known for its efficiency, transparency and fairness. It is ready to lend a helping hand to business people and companies, under a long-established philosophy of 'maximum help and minimum interference' for business.
Monetary System
The objective of Hong Kong's monetary policy is to maintain currency stability. Given the highly
externally oriented nature of the economy, this objective is further defined as a stable external value for the Hong Kong dollar in terms of a linked exchange rate against the US dollar at the rate of $7.80 to US$1. This objective is achieved through the linked exchange rate system introduced in October 1983.
The Rule of Law
Hong Kong has a well established and trusted legal system based on the common law. The rights and freedoms of Hong Kong people and those living here are founded upon the impartial rule of law, an independent judiciary, a comprehensive system of legal aid, and a free and active press. [ Judiciary ]

Hong Kong International Airport, one of the busiest in the world, is served by major international airlines, which provide about 3 900 scheduled passenger services and 615 freight services weekly from Hong Kong to some 130 cities world-wide. When fully developed the airport will be able to handle up to 87 million passengers and 9 million tonnes of cargo a year. Hong Kong International Airport was named as the world's best airport for the lastest five consecutive years in a survey conducted by British-based research company Skytrax Research.

都市生活：生活リズムが非常に繁忙で、电车の时间、会社の出勤等にきっちりした时间帯に决められており、自由への希望が高い。周りに人が多く、一人で生活をしても、孤独感がなく、周りの环境に和らげられて、时の流れの速さには感じない。施设がたくさんあり、食事?买い物などの时间の费やしに选択肢が多く、友达もたくさん出来、若者に相応しい。
田舎生活：一言でのんびり、都会のような群れの中に生きるではなく、大地と空という大きな空间の中で自由自在に泳ぐような感覚。时に远い方の黄昏を眺め、时に目の前の花を観赏でき、开放感があり、心ものびのびするような心境。ただ、多少の寂しがりになりがちだが、心を静め、ゆっくり物事を考えたり、行事を行なったりするのが理想。

「Metroual」是由metropolis(都会)和ual(性的)这两个字所合起来的，简单来说就是住在大都市、像女性一样喜欢流行和护肤等生活过得高尚有品味的异性恋男子，台湾多翻做「都会美型男」，也有人称为「都市生活自恋者」。这个字是在1994年由义大利作家Mark Simpson所创出来的，并在2003年夏天被Euro RSCG广告公司活用在广告上，因而又再度引起一阵旋风，2004~05年其在欧美的化妆品和服饰界兴起了一股新浪潮，也被称为「Metroual现象」。
「Metroual」的要素可以说是以下几项：
1.是男性。
2.住在大都市。
3.对流行事物敏感。
4.对於全身的保养热心。
5.喜欢女生。(非同性恋者)
