  • Description: ASIA'S tourism has experienced tremendous growth in the past decade, the outstanding feature of this growth being the rise in the number of outbound tourists from mainland China. While some Chinese tourists are obsessed with consuming internationally recognised luxury brand items, the majority of Chinese visitors actually purchase day-today consumer products, such as shampoo, toothpaste, washing powder, manufactured medicine, diapers and baby food. [...]of this group, most conducted multiple temporary visits to Hong Kong over a period of a few years to more than ten years before they could obtain the appropriate resident permit. Since 1997 an increasing number of Chinese students have enrolled in Hong Kong universities.
