THIS ISHONG KONG
Hong Kong! is ever changing, and like the metropolis it represents, the city brand also has to evolve with the times. ln 2010, Brand Hong Kong (BrandHK) was revitalised following an in-depth review to update the Brand’s core values and attributes and to reflect the community’s perceptions of and aspirations for the city. Today, Hong Kong defines itself as a free and dynamic society where creativity and entrepreneurship converge. Strategi-cally located in the heart of Asia, it is a cosmopolitan city offering global connectivity, security and rich diversity, and is home to a unique network of people who celebrates excellence and quality living.
The visual identity of BrandHK, which has taken on a more contemporary look, maintains the virtues of the original dragon logo — a mythical and powerful icon that links the city’s historic past with its energetic modernity.
The blue and green ribbons that extend from the dragon symbol-ise blue sky and a sustainable environment, while the red ribbon is the silhouette of Lion Rock, which represents Hong Kong people’s ‘can-do’ spirit. The flowing ribbons evoke versatility and the multiple colours signify the city’s diversity and dynamism.
The small icons that sometimes appear in applications of BrandHK designs are representative of the city, its lifestyle and heritage.
The chapters of this book present the key attributes and values of Hong Kong and its people. These are the basic elements of BrandHK — qualities that explain why there’s no city like Asia’s world city.

With a highly efficient transport network ranging from its modern metro-rail system to the gravity-defying peak tram, double-decker buses, minibuses and high-speed ferries, Hong Kong is one of the least car-dependent cities in the world. The public transport network handles around 11 million passenger trips a day.

Hong Kong!s strategic location at the mouth of the Pearl River Delta (PRD) makes it the natural gateway to China. With a huge pool of entrepreneurs experienced in Chinese culture and international business protocol, the city is an ideal base for companies seeking access to China – and equally for Chinese companies reaching out to the world.
Hong Kong is a global communica-tions hub with excellent communi-cations infrastruc-ture. It was the first major city in the world to have a fully digitalised telephone network and the first in Asia to implement operator number portability.

Hong Kong is a busy city, but people find time for rest and relaxation. A walk in the park, a family meal, a game of mahjong with friends, an evening at the cinema or a spot of karaoke – there are many ways to take a break in Hong Kong, and many things to see.
