| Abstract | In June and July 1997, the world's eyes have been focused on Hong Kong as the former British colony has been returned to China. "Sleeping giant", quote that is often used in reference to China appears to be nearing its prophetic climax, as everyone from financiers to feng shui masters look to the country that contains a large proportion of the world's population. International hotel companies hoping to get a head start on the competition and enter this vast country which for so long was off limits to outside investment are now looking to secondary destinations as well as securing a prize position in the main cities of the People's Republic of China (PRC). |
