FT.com / Asia-Pacific / China - Hong Kong predicts slowdown for 2007 (390 words)
Hong Kong’s government on Wednesday said it expected economic growth to dip as low as 4.5 per cent this year as official figures showed the territory’s gross domestic product grew by a better-than-expected 7 per cent in the final quarter of last year.
The government is to use around a third of the surplus to fund a series of minor tax cuts aimed largely at Hong Kong’s low and middle-income earners, including a populist move to halve the duty of wine and beer.
Hong Kong’s economy has been among Asia’s best performers in recent years, growing by 7 per cent in both 2004 and 2005.
