About my blog
My name is Winfried Engelbrecht-Bresges and I enjoy living in Hong Kong which is dynamic, competitive and has a can-do spirit. I am lucky to combine my hobbies, horse racing and football in my job. In this blog I will share with you periodically my thoughts on my work and life in Hong Kong. Your views are welcome but I may not be able to respond to every one of them.-
