Hong Kong 

Hong Kong is a self-governed region on the south coast of China, and one of the most densely populated areas in the world. 

The city is also one of the globe’s leading financial hubs, characterised by a capitalist service economy, low tax rates and free trade. 

Hong Kong also has one of the highest concentrations of corporate headquarters in the Asia-Pacific region.
