HONG KONG: Hong Kong's economy expanded by 3.1% in the second quarter from the same period a year earlier, supported by a surge in rush shipments following the temporary easing of U.S. tariff measures, the government said on Friday.

The latest GDP figure was in line with the official estimate released in late July, marking the 10th consecutive quarter of expansion on the back of robust exports and strengthening domestic demand.
