Hong Kong must adjust development strategy – Lau Nai-keung

From China Daily (link):

Hong Kong’s specific inclusion in the national 11th Five-Year Plan (2006-10) is generally well received here in the Special Administrative Region (SAR). Rafael Hui Si-yan, chief secretary for Administration of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, recently articulated his concern that Hong Kong might risk being “marginalized.” This sparked a heated debate in Hong Kong, which served to consolidate the determination that Hong Kong must shape up to face the challenge of integration into the national economy.

For several decades, Hong Kong has thrived like a single-cell amoeba, freely moving around, exchanging resources with the environment. Now it has had to adapt itself as part of a composite life form, such as an arm to the whole body, serving certain specific functions, synchronizing with the whole entity.
