On May 29, 2014 The Henley Group sponsored a talk on How to Apply for the Right of Abode in Hong Kong at the American Club.

Spaces were limited and it booked out pretty quickly.

Nevertheless, we recorded the whole presentation and are pleased to produce it here in 7 parts.

The entire talk will be posted on this website over the course of the next couple of weeks

We originally produced a version of this presentation last year.

However, this time we can bring the material to life a bit more with an actively engaged audience and a lovely ambiance to the session all told.

I hope you get value from it.

A hat tip to my new colleague Chris Michael Owen who joined us recently to head up our video production endeavours as our resident cinematographer here in Hong Kong.

Chris joins our team working closely to complement the Sterling  work of our long-standing video artist guru, India-based, Chirag Sachdeva.

Together we have big plans for the rest of the year and you will begin to see a significant uplift of the volume and quality of our video content as Visa Geeza TV emerges from the drawing board little by little as a result of our recent investment in the Video Cha Cha studio in Wanchai.

Either way, our intention is to help answer your Hong Kong visa questions and assist in solving your immigration problems.

Our websites are about you, not us, and we’re just happy to have you around.
