Bubba Gump. Didn't have time to go but It would've been interesting to try their shrimp and grits.

Polytechnic University, HKTDC, Stock Exchange, and Hong Kong Productivity Council
Hong Kong Stock Exchange
I'm a trading agent
We couldn't get a good picture.
The Hong Kong Productivity Council serves the local SME's in Hong Kong with product development, planning, quality controls, etc.
The lady next to me is Mrs. Pui-King LAU, a congress woman in Hong Kong. Behind her is our Professor, Dr. Chen Min. Mrs. LAU gave us a very interesting lecture on The Role of Hong Kong in China's Business Development. She was very energetic and enthutiastic.
The Hong Kong Trade Development Council promotes Hong Kong as the best location from which to,
-Sell products into China and Asia
-Source products and business services
-Manufacture products
-Develop, manage and expand business in Asia Pacific
They also bring in more than 300,000 people every year to buy, sell and make contacts on Hong Kong's business platform.
Furthermore, they organize more than 600 Hong Kong promotional events globally, reaching nearly 100,000 business people in key markets every year.
Now I know who to turn to If I want Information about the markets and Industry sectors in China.
This is where all of our lectures and discussions were. Really nice campus and great cafeterias.

Jumbo Floating Restaurant/ Fishing Village
Rich people's Yachts just chillin
Smaller fishing boats on bigger boats.
Two guys fishing
Many people live on their boats. You can see a man on the left hand corner of this picture.
Our tour boats.
Cool dish. Traidtional Song dynasty characters.
Ballin! The tour guide told us that Jackie Chan's yacht was docked here. Don't know if it's true or not.
Jumbo Floating Restaurant. Food was really good here.
Cantonese food is much more similar to American Chinese food. Most of us on the trip prefer Cantonese food than other Chinese food or Shanghainese food.
Downtown Hong Kong

All those rectangular shaped signs are advertisment signs. Samsung, Phillips, Sony, and a lot of banks.

Our program paid for a boat cruise dinner. Got some really good pictures of the Hong Kong Skyline. This one is my favorite.
Peak View.
