It would seem that the Hong Kong Competition Commission (HKCC) already has advanced investigations underway barely 10 months into the new competition law regime.
Since May 2016 the HKCC has actively stressed bid-rigging as an enforcement priority in a range of compliance activities including its “Fight Bid-rigging Cartels” advocacy campaign, residential building renovation and maintenance market study, recommendations to the Hong Kong Housing Authority on piped LPG supply, and most recently with its comments on the successful prosecution and sentencing in the Garden Vista bid-rigging and bribery case.
