                <description><![CDATA[Those who are familiar with Hong Kong will know that the city is split across two key areas. Kowloon is attached to the mainland and whilst it benefits from all the colour and charm that Hong Kong has to offer, it isn't as convenient for business as Hong Kong Island. When you are in Hong Kong for business, it's best to stay on Hong Kong Island and you will be close to the business district. Taxis are easy to come by but you may find yourself commuting more quickly by MTR, tram or even walking.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[In Hong Kong, like elsewhere in Asia, business cards are treated with unusual respect. Always present and receive a business card with two hands. When presenting your card, ensure your name reads 'right way up' to the receiver. Upon receiving a business card, look at it first rather than immediately stashing it away - and it is always helpful to show some kind of excitement at seeing whatever is written thereon. After this, the business card may be put away, but never in your back trouser pocket!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hong Kong benefits from one of the world's most competitive mobile telephone markets. Whilst handsets are generally more expensive than elsewhere, sim cards are exceptionally good value.<br><br>A GBP10 sim card should provide you with more than enough credit for a short stay in Hong Kong and allows you to keep in touch with locals and fellow travellers. Sim cards are available at local convenience stores and are easy to use with dual-language instructions.]]></description>
