Hong Kong's visitor arrivals rose 18 percent to 2.45 million
last month, a record for November, bringing tourist numbers so far
this year to more than the whole of 2006, a city government agency
said yesterday.
The number of arrivals for the first 11 months of 2007 was 25.4
million, compared with 25.3 million in all of last year, driven by
increases in arrivals from places such as the Chinese mainland,
South Korea and the Philippines.
