Description
An insiders view on how Hong Kongs land system, inherited from the British, has helped to create unrivalled wealth for the ruling class, how the lack of competition law has encouraged industrial and economic concentration in the same entities, and how these factors have given rise to a host of social and economic ills. The Chinese version has become the bestseller of non-fiction titles in Hong Kong in 2010. This second edition has been thoroughly updated using the most current economic data from 2010 and featuring the addition of a new prologue.
