Hong Kong was an Earth city. This city was located on the other side of the planet from Paris. Kowloon was an area within this city.
In one of Doctor Julian Bashir's holosuite-adventures, Julian Bashir, Secret Agent, he played a British spy, operating out of Kowloon, in 1964. (DS9: "Our Man Bashir")
Background info
According to a 21st century-era political map of Earth, Hong Kong was a Special Administrative Region in southeastern China. It was located on the South China Sea coastline. This Central Intelligence Agency map, which was seen in the remastered "The Cage", was published either in April 2007[1] or September 2008.[2] The difference, which was not noticeable at the resolution of the image from the episode, was the addition of Kosovo, which gained its independence between the releases. The label "Hong Kong S.A.R." was not legible to the viewer.
It was possible that Hong Kong was on a 20th century-era political map of Earth used in the original "The Cage". However, due to the poor quality of the image and the inability to access the source material, this was far from certain.
