Blank labels covers the words "Made in Hong Kong" on cases of sauce alongside the words "Made in China" at the Koon Chun Sauce Factory in Hong Kong, China. The US government's policy of imports from Hong Kong to be labeled as "Made in China" is scheduled to take effect on Tuesday (Nov 10, 2020) as one result of the removal of Hong Kong's special trading status following the imposition of a National Security Law on the city. - Bloomberg
HONG KONG, Nov 9 (dpa): Monday will be the final day for companies whose goods are produced in Hong Kong to change labelling to "Made in China" as exporters prepare for a new rule ordered by US President Donald Trump to take force, local media reported.
The labelling rule will effectively end preferential treatment of Hong Kong by the United States in response to a National Security Law imposed by Beijing in the territory which critics say has eroded the rights and freedoms of Hong Kong citizens and killed off semi-autonomous operations.
