Hongkong
Hong Kong is an extraordinary place. It has an area not more than 1/70 of Ireland and yet its population is twice as many as in Ireland. Although there hasn’t been any significant upturn in its economy since the property bubble bursted in 1998, its GDP is still surpassing many of the European countries, including the Celtic Tiger which has been enjoying substantial economic growth in recent years.
For a place of its size (and for just a tiny Chinese terrority), it can boost its own Google HK, Yahoo HK, MSN HK. It is quite amazing.
Now even the fate of our only Olympic Gold will be decided in Hongkong.
