Hong Kong max income tax rate is 16% but there are deductions which bring the median to around 10% only.
No other taxes at all, only stamp duty on real estate sales and duties on some very few items, like HK Customs and Excise Department puts it: HKSAR is a free port. There is no tariff on general imports. However, there is duty on liquors, tobacco, hydrocarbon oil and methyl alcohol. See more here http://www.customs.gov.hk/eng/major_dutiable_freep ort_e.html
Western societies as a whole are way too heavily taxed. Even the US is practically a socialist nation by taxation amount.
