AS the official translation of the citiy names are Yichang and Yili, we 
are facing a risk to pick up a Chinese city name that most Chinese won't 
recognize.

If we really have to choose a city, IMO, Yichang (ichang) would be a 
better choice, as the Yili(ili) is more than 2300 miles away from Hong 
Kong, while Yichang (ichang) is (only) 600 miles away.

Just my $.02

Yi
