| Abstract | In accordance with Hong Kong's Basic Law, and empowered by the central government, said Huang Zhengdong, China's communications minister, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) government can independently maintain and develop shipping ties with other countries in the name of Hong Kong, China. As South China has become a manufacturing base for Hong Kong companies, it would be cost-effective to ship goods through a nearby port. In this regard, the mainland will not hurt Hong Kong's interests. Instead, it will help make Hong Kong products more competitive. |
