Whose Hong Kong?

No, Hong Kong is not a person. Hong Kong is landmark region in China that is known by many as the "Golden Egg" for it was known as a place to easily become wealthy. Though still part of China, Hong Kong governs itself independently and economically. With a population of 7 million and with only 426 square miles, it is particularly small. Hong Kong has become an economic powerhouse through its "Low Taxation, free market, and minimal government intervention" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong) Hong Kong has now become a tourist attraction with superb shopping, great eats, and numerous leisure activities. I hope in these next few weeks to captivate minds and create pictures of this magical region through words and imagination.
