The Hong Kong International Airport is testing a RFID system for luggage delivery, but due to its high cost it is unknown when the system will be formally launched.
An airport representative says it is difficult to persuade the airline companies to adopt the technology. The high cost of this system is mainly caused by the expensive rolling marks.
Huang Yaohui, supervisor of Hong Kong International Airport's Technology and Outsourcing said that Hong Kong International Airport has taken a lead in testing RFID in the hope of improving luggage and package delivery efficiency so as to save cost for the airport.
He believes adopting RFID at the airport is of great significance to both the airport's operation and the promotion of RFID applications in China. Huang suggested that the high-cost rolling marks be made in China to lower the cost.

I buy fake products, because it gets annoying to live in China with nothing at all. It is far better to fall asleep listening to music with a fake Ipod than running my computer on batteries for 30 minutes and then having to recharge it. If you happen to notice everything in China is fake. So it is hard to buy anything other than food without it being fake. So tell me if you know where to buy the real deal, let us know. Then you can down us for buying the goods as fakes when that is the only option. Not to mention as a foreigner in China, they will always sell you the fakes at the same cost of the real ones simply for the money. Westerners are a cash cow to the poor Chinese who live off a few hundred dollars a month. China is "buyer beware". Do you think the Chinese would rip off their own kind like that? No they wouldn't. They think we are rich, why sell us the real items and make less profits? You sit there and harp on the lawlessness of foreigners in China, now turn your attention to the Chinese theives. You know the ones who say it is genuine and the real item, but in truth it is a fake that is made for mere pennies to the dollar and yet you pay full price, they make the money off cheating us. So you see I am not really stealing, I am saving money, buying the things that make my life more easy and reducing my chances of being milked like a cash cow does. But then again you are rich. You make 4 thousand dollars US a month, why not harp on those of us who just spent our mortgage payments on a trip overseas, because we know that the chance will never come again.
And for a little personal info on illegal file sharing, I download. I tell you truthfully, But I ALWAYS buy the CD's later. I like to try before I buy. itunes does not give you the full song, just a 30 sec clip. How would I know if I like the song or not? Why pay for a full song that sounds good for 30 seconds, then sounds like crap afterwards? If the RIAA comes knocking on my door. I will let them in and show them the $800 woth of CD's on my desk. And as for DVD's perhaps you have never downloaded before or not, but most DVD rips and AVI files are corrupt and full of viruses. And how would I know, you may ask….Because I tried that while living in China. I found bootleg copies of American movies dubbed in Chinese and could not stand watching a movie where I could not understand what they were saying. Have you ever bought an American movie dubbed in Chinese before? If you answered yes, then I applaud you for your heretical denial that you just bought a fake!
