The applicant failed to establish a substantial connection with Hong Kong because both parties were not physically present or resident in Hong Kong at the relevant times, ownership of the Property and other weak ties (bank accounts, historic employment, deregistered company) were insufficient to establish the required substantive connection; accordingly the statutory jurisdiction under s29AE was not made out and leave under s29AC was refused.
