The Division of Business and Management (DBM) invited Tim Tim-leung Lui, Senior Advisor of PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) Hong Kong, to address the 80th High Table Dinner participants on “What the HKSAR can do for the nation” on 4 May.

Mr Lui is a former Partner of PwC, the former President of the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Deputy of China’s National People’s Congress as well as Chairman of DBM Advisory Committee.

He said that many companies from mainland China, a close business partner to Hong Kong, invest and set up branches in the Special Administrative Region. On the other hand, he mentioned that Hong Kong owns a lot of international resources and the two areas can help each other for better reciprocal development.
