More than 150 senior business executives from Korean companies attending the Hong Kong-Shenzhen seminar have shown strong interest in the business environments and investment opportunities in the Greater Pearl River Delta region.

The investment promotion was successfully held in Seoul today, and was the sixth joint initiative to promote investment opportunities in the delta.

Noting it has become one of the most important manufacturing bases in the world, Director-General of Investment Promotion Mike Rowse said Hong Kong is in a unique position to act as the base to oversee business activities in the delta region.

"At the doorstep to the PRD region, Hong Kong offers world-class business and professional services, a sound and sophisticated financial system, strong international sales and marketing experience and expertise - complementing the strengths of the PRD in manufacturing," he said.
