Strengthening the market could propel Hong Kong ...

Article Abstract:

Short-selling and insider trading have created huge losses on the Hong Kong stock market (illustrated by a 20% drop in share value for China Mobile in November 2000). Hong Kong's Securities and Futures Commission has been largely ineffective in detecting and prosecuting market manipulators.

Singapore licenses for cellular-phone, paging services offer new opportunities

Article Abstract:

New licenses for cellular-phone and paging services in Singapore, widely expected to break the monopoly of Singapore Telecommunications Ltd. over the lucrative market, are not seen to have considerable impact on share prices. This is because the new services, which are scheduled to start by Apr. 1997 yet, are not seen to realize substantial revenues until 1999. While news of the new licenses perked up the Singapore stock market, the favorable effect is not expected to linger.

Tapping China's phone market

Article Abstract:

A number of investment advisers believe that China Telecom (Hong Kong) has the biggest potential of giving the greatest investment return to prospective investors to China's mobile-phone market. The company's stability is unquestionable since it is owned by the Chinese government's Ministry of Information and Industry. It also manages cellular businesses in China's richest provinces that include Guangzhou, Zhejiang and Jiangsu. Furthermore, its price per share is reasonable compared to its competitors SmarTone Telecommunications, Hong Kong Telecom and Star Telecom.
