Original: Editorial | Hong Kong, crowned world’s freest economy again, can’t rest on its laurels

Hong Kong has once again been ranked the world's freest economy, retaining a title it has long held in international economic indices. A South China Morning Post editorial argues the city cannot afford complacency, urging it to strengthen its competitiveness amid regional rivalry and economic headwinds. Commentators say keeping the top spot will depend on continued openness, business-friendly policy and adapting to shifting global trade conditions.

Why now: The renewed top ranking has prompted debate about whether Hong Kong can sustain its economic edge amid regional competition.
