Opening a business in Hong Kong

I'd like to open a limited liability company here in HK, and had a look through your site, but surprisingly didn't find anything (maybe my search wasn't complete). I've had a look at the Tax department and the company registry sites, and it seems to be relatively simple, but, having owned businesses in other countries I know it is often better to do it through a trust company or accounting service who then does your secretarial, legal, tax and accounting stuff for you.

My questions are - is this correct, what should it cost and does anyone particularly recommend or not recommend the services of anyone here? I'm small so I don't want to pay the top dollar, a 2nd or 3rd tier reputable company would be fine for me.

Any other advice would be appreciated.
