Hong Kong is Hong Kong. It's just different from NYC and will follow a different development path.Hong Kong has some advantages that NYC doesn't have. It's really close to dozens of jurisidictions and it's "neutral territory" for international trade deals. It's also close to a manufacturing center, and a logistics hub. HK also has a very strong science and technology research system in the universities. The problem isn't the lack of scientists and technology people but rather than HK doesn't have the academic-industry linkages that exist in either NYC or Beijing.Yes, the "vision thing" is a problem, but what HK can't find locally, it can import.
