Abstract
Highlights Hong Kong’s many small but thriving businesses which provide most of the workforce (60 per cent) on the island. Investigates the effects of the SARS crisis and the economic turndown of 1997, following the handover to Chinese rule. Uses tables to show the local feeling on what is wrong and the possible solutions. Tries to show the various ways of an improvement in the fortunes of the young people via an educational bent.
