In 2013, the number of visitors from around the world received by Hong Kong exceeded 54 million, an increase of 11.7% over 2012. Hong Kong could receive 70 million tourists annually within three years and 100 million within a decade, mostly from the mainland, according to Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development Gregory So Kam-leung.
