Abstract
Since China´s open door policy, much of Hong Kong´s low cost manufacturing industry has been relocated to China for cheap labor/land costs; however, attention to technology upgrading and innovative product development is largely neglected. Based on extensive survey findings, this paper analyses the quality, technology and innovative product development practices of HK/China manufacturing industries. It also recommends strategies for sustaining competitiveness in the global market of the 21st Century
