Hong Kong slashes tax on spirits to boost nightlife
香港大幅下调烈酒税以刺激夜生活
Hong Kong has slashed its spirits tax, one of the highest in the world, as the Chinese territory seeks to boost nightlife and revive its struggling economy.
为刺激夜生活并重振陷入困境的经济，中国香港特别行政区大幅下调了烈酒税。香港的烈酒税率是世界上最高的之一。
The Asian financial hub, hit hard by China’s slowing economic growth and a fall in tourist numbers, has yet to see the benefit of lower US interest rates and a Chinese stimulus package.
这个受到中国内地经济增长放缓和游客数量减少沉重打击的亚洲金融中心，尚未看到美国降息和中国内地刺激计划带来的好处。
