HONG KONG - Hong Kong on Wednesday officially protested new US labeling rules for Hong Kong-made products, in a bid to resolve the row without recourse to the World Trade Organization.
Commerce and Economic Development Secretary Edward Yau said he lodged the complaint over the "made in China" labeling requirement in a meeting with acting US Consul General Paul Horowitz, requesting that it be withdrawn immediately.
"Such a move also confuses the market and undermines the rules-based multilateral trading system. We will robustly advance our arguments to defend Hong Kong's interests."
