Hong Kong has long been a favourite outpost for both western expatriates and those from neighbouring countries. As an economic crossroads, it has long attracted investors and high flyers. What does this mean for you if you're coming to live and work here? The simple fact is that Hong Kong's superb communications network, good strategic geographical location, well developed infrastructure, low taxation compared to it's competitors, stable currency and free port status, leave the territory in a very strong position to attract investment. Furthermore, the experienced expat is often what hiring organisations are likely to favour when compared to a fresh graduate candidate, that is to say, they favour upgrading staff rather than increasing staff numbers.
Hong Kong is increasingly doing business with the Chinese mainland, therefore the expat with good language skills in both Cantonese and Mandarin, are going to be at a significant advantage.
