Therefore, the rents of shops in the Minsheng District of the New Territories have clearly outperformed traditional retail areas and even urban areas. As for the luxury goods business is still going downhill, the renting capacity is not as good as before, the renting of the four core retail areas has not been benefited from the rapid stimulation of the retail industry, so it can only be rampant.
