November 14, 2011
Chief Executive Donald Tsang has asked the US to grant visa-free access to Hong Kong SAR passport holders.
Rounding up his US trip in Hawaii on November 13, Mr Tsang said he made the suggestion to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who reacted positively, however, no timetable has been agreed so far.
He has also talked about the possibility of abolishing double taxation for Hong Kong-US businesses.
Meanwhile, also at the Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation meeting, Mr Tsang met with New Zealand Deputy Prime Minister Bill English to discuss the progress of the country's free-trade agreement signed with Hong Kong last year, and the memorandum on education co-operation.
At Mr Tsang's meeting with Chilean President Sebastian Pinera, both sides agreed to enter a free trade agreement to be signed early next year.
