人类步入新世纪,在这个历史性的时刻,中国经过漫长的等待和艰难的谈判,终于走到了世界贸易组织的门槛。正如内地经济界对于中国加入世贸的看法喜忧参半一样,1997年回归祖国之后,经历东南亚货币危机冲击并保持经济稳定增长的香港,也在谨慎地关注和审视着中国的这个历史性的进程,这个被称为第二次开放的重大决策。香港的政界和经济界人士,都普遍注意到中国加入世贸必然给香港带来的促进和带动作用:外资的流入、转口,贸易的扩大等等都将成为香港经济发展的新动力。但冷静的香港经济界人士也清醒地意识到机会之下的挑战。归结为一点,就是香港特区行政长官董建华先生强调的在新的开放形势下,香港在中国的整个经济发展格局中,将如何重新定位?
At this historic moment, China has finally reached the threshold of the World Trade Organization after a long wait and hard negotiations.

Known as the second major policy of opening up. Political and economic circles in Hong Kong have generally noticed the promotion and leading role that China will inevitably bring to Hong Kong when it joins the WTO. The inflow and re-entry of foreign capital and the expansion of trade will all become the new impetus to Hong Kong’s economic development. However, the calm Hong Kong business community is also clearly aware of the challenges under the opportunities. In one word, it is the emphasis Hong Kong Chief Executive Tung Chee Hwa, Hong Kong, has taken under the new liberalization. How will Hong Kong reposition itself in the entire economic development pattern in China?
