Welcome Message from Vice-chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference
C Y Leung
Vice-chairman
National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference
As the founding Chairman of the Hong Kong Coalition of Professional Services in 2001, I am delighted that the Coalition continually rises to the challenge of marketing Hong Kong-based professional services to the Mainland of China and overseas markets. Long before the implementation of the Mainland and Hong Kong Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA) in 2003, Hong Kong professionals have been making significant contributions to the development of Mainland China. They offer their expertise and market perspectives, not only for their own business growth and career development, but also for the advancement of our nation.
Through annual Supplements to CEPA, Hong Kong enterprises enjoy preferential market access to a growing number of services sectors in the Mainland of China, including key sectors such as financial services, legal, construction, medical services and information technology, just to name a few. With excellent professional expertise and management skills, good work ethics and strong ability to adapt to the ever-changing trends and demands of the market, our professionals continue to play an important role in the further expansion and upgrading of markets and industries across China.
More recently, Mainland companies are increasingly using Hong Kong as their springboard to "go global”. This is yet another example of how the Mainland of China presents tremendous growth opportunities for Hong Kong professionals, and how our professionals contribute to national development under CEPA’s win-win formula.
With the relentless efforts of the Hong Kong Coalition of Professional Services, I look forward to a new era of development in professional services for the betterment of Hong Kong and our nation.
