'Financial Secretary John Tsang: Local fashion designers continue to create their own brands and find success on the big catwalk, in Hong Kong and around the world.  The Hong Kong Government attaches great importance to our designers - to the fashion industry in general. In last year’s Budget, I earmarked HK$500 million to the industry and set out strategic directions.  These include stepping up promotion of Hong Kong fashion designers and brands, strengthening technical expertise and training for fashion designers, and launching an incubation programme for emerging fashion talent.  Through these efforts, and other measures, we support the industry’s shift to higher, and even greater value-added design.  In this regard, the recently established Advisory Group on the Implementation of Fashion Initiatives will surely play a significant role.  As well as nurturing homegrown designers, Hong Kong has long been an international fashion capital.  We attract a world of brands and related fashion business, as well as the consumers who flock to Hong Kong for their global fashion-shopping forays.
