First and foremost John, never go to Taiwei. You are not going to be able to compete there. That market, by your definition, doesn't even exist.

Singapore and Hong Kong are, indeed, major markets. They are also homes to world-class producers and farmers. How well do your products stack up against theirs? On such stages, the last thing you would want to do is to compete on price-points. The real affluent people demand quality and service.
