YouTube Hong Kong
YouTube launches a customized version for Hong Kong which is also the first localized YouTube in Asia. There are a few channels from partnering organizations such as RTHK, ATV and Hong Kong Tourism Council.

He noted that the Taiwan version would launch later today (18 Oct). Here's the promotional video for the launch:
