11:42 am on 27 August 2010

Finance Minister Bill English will visit Hong Kong and Singapore next week to meet business, investment and government leaders.

Mr English says he will update them on New Zealand's economic programme and share ideas about building a strong and sustainable recovery from the global recession.

He says Asia and New Zealand have developed strong trade and business links in recent years, and the Government is building on that.
