Additionally, please ensure that you address throughout your filing material legal and regulatory risks associated with your operations in Hong Kong and Macau as applicable. As an example only, please expand your risk factor disclosure on page 59 of your Form 20-F filed March 3, 2022 when you discuss the difficulty shareholders may have enforcing judgments obtained against you to address the specific risks related to the enforcement of judgments in Hong Kong or Macau, as applicable, in addition to the PRC.
