 According to the United Nations, over half of the world's population currently live in cities. This ratio is expected to increase to two-thirds by 2050, with developing economies leading the urbanisation trend. As three of the largest, most successful and dynamic vertical cities on the planet, New York, Shanghai and Hong Kong can all lead by example in providing a green, clean and vibrant city living environment for our future generations. |
Through closer financial co-operation, Hong Kong aims to play an exemplary role in promoting intra-Asia financial collaboration and integration. In particular, we have the experience, expertise and the motivation to better connect our nation with partners in the region and around the world.
As our economy begins to emerge from the worst global financial crisis since the 1930s, we have an opportunity to take corporate social responsibility to a whole new level.Good corporate governance can help restore trust in companies that were hit hard during the financial crisis. Stronger co-operation and communication between companies and their stakeholders will help to make everyone more aware of their mutual responsibilities.
