In recent years, Hong Kong`s economy has been facing the pain of transition, amid financial turbulence at home and abroad and challenges to Hong Kong`s status as an international financial center from Singapore and other cities.

G20 should recognize that developing countries hold the key to leading the world out of economic stagnation.
