Hong Kong

Hong Kong is incredibly intrepreneurial; everyone is in business; on the street, waiting for the light to change, everyone is doing business on a cellphone; anything goes.

Now that Hong Kong is part of China, it will be interesting to see whether Hong Kong drives China to be more open and laissez-faire or whether China drives Hong Kong backwards. So far, the former is, fortunately, winning out.
