My personal choices in the USA would be either Palagems or Richard Wise.
I've had a number of stones from Pala and they have all been beautiful. I would also happily work with Richard.
I would suggest contacting both. Pala is trade-only, but they would probably be able to help you out with finding someone in Hong Kong to deal with.
I don't know if he is dealing in stones, but Richard Hughes who is basically the 'God of Corundum' and author of 'Ruby & Sapphire' and who used to work for Pala is currently based in Hong Kong. If Pala don't have other avenues they might be able to go through him.
ETA: I'm going to a Gemmologist's Xmas Party tonight and will ask around and see if anyone has any HK recommendations...
