About the visa application, I am afraid I am not too sure about that.

Thanks

Hi Ash,
Thanks for the post. I spent a month in Hong Kong last April with my Fiance who is a resident. Your right, it is very expensive, I have benn looking toward Lantau, or the New Territories, as possibilities. My Fance is not cetan about the immigration requirments, so thought I would post here to see what I can find out. Thanks again.
