Neil J. Kay has the proud distinction of being one of the 1st importers granted access into mainland China (with a special diplomatic trade visa) on a unique trade mission through Hong Kong. Neil was in mainland China in 1979 through sponsorship of Guangdong Trade representative. This was prior to the globalization boom. At this time China’s government was contracting with established Hong Kong factories and trading companies to help train their workforce to prepare them for opening their doors to the global market.
