โฆ Synopsis
Hong Kong is modern as tomorrow, where enterprise and hard work are the keys to this complex city state's existence against all the odds. Neighbouring Macau is a curious mixture of medieval Portugal and the casinos of Las Vegas, transposed to the Orient. Finally there's Canton, the business centre of China and the gateway to that mysterious land which is rapidly opening its doors wide to adventurous travellers.
