              HONGKONG LAND ISSUES US$500 MILLION 10-YEAR EUROBONDS

21st April 2004 - Hongkong Land Holdings Limited today announced that its
wholly-owned subsidiary, The Hongkong Land Finance (Cayman Islands) Company

following investor roadshows in Hong Kong and Singapore. The Notes are
guaranteed by The Hongkong Land Company, Limited. HSBC and J.P. Morgan
Securities Ltd. acted as Joint Lead Managers and Joint Bookrunners for the
offering.

The Notes pay a coupon of 5.50% per annum. The reoffered price of the Notes has
been set at 99.114% to yield 115 basis points over US Treasury notes due
February 2014.

million from the initially announced size of US$300 million. It was priced at
the tight end of the initial price guidance of 10-year US Treasuries plus 115 to
120 basis points. The Notes were distributed to over 140 international and
regional institutional investors.

This is the second US Dollar debt securities offering by The Hongkong Land Company,
Limited, the proceeds of which will be used for its general corporate funding 
requirements.

The Notes have been assigned a rating of 'A2' by Moody's Investors Service and
'BBB+' by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services. Approval in-principle has been
received for the listing of the Notes on the Singapore Exchange Securities
Trading Limited.
