Leading today’s Hong Kong real estate news, Luk Fook Holdings may be betting that the city’s real estate is even more valuable than the gold it sells in its shops after the jewellery retailer acquired four floors in an office building in Shatin for HK$650 million ($83 million).

All these stories and more await you, if you just keep reading.

He said that the tax would probably need to “have a particular target, and not apply across the board.”
