Bruce Gilley, "Down to Brass Tacks," FEER, Jan. 25, 1996, p. 14; "Chinese Statement on the Breakdown of Sino-British Talks on Hong Kong," BBC Monitoring Service: Far East, Mar. 2, 1994. 39 Jacques deLisle and Kevin P. Lane had substantial informal input with Beijing, not least because many of them are big investors in the PRC as well - key contributors to the economic revolution that the policy of "opening to the outside world" has brought to the mainland. Especially since the adoption of the Basic Law in 1990, efforts by China, Hong Kong-British authorities, and emergent Hong Kong political elites to canvas, convince, and even coerce business have included a subtle and complex battle over where the territory's key foreign and domestic businesses would stand on fundamental "rule of law" questions.

The future of port development in Hong Kong is also uncertain. Although there are plans for several new container terminals, some argue that land and labor costs are too high, and the environment too crowded and polluted, to make Hong Kong suitable for such a low value-added industry. It is possible that future port development will be concentrated in nearby locations outside the territory. For instance, Yantian, to the northeast of the territory, is close enough to be accessible. Despite these obstacles to increasing its physical trade output, Hong Kong should remain the place from which trade and much export manufacturing from southern and central China is organized.
