Security for costs was justified. Balancing the defendant's need for protection against a non-resident plaintiff and the plaintiff's inability to raise the full amount sought, the court ordered security of HK$300,000 payable into court or by bank guarantee within 28 days, stayed further proceedings pending provision of security and awarded costs (nisi) to the defendant.
