I can.

If your product has potential and a unique name, you may want to
grab up that name in many domains just so someone else doesn't
do so and pretend to be your official representative. You don't
see microsoft letting microsoft.cn or microsoft.hk go to someone
else. If you know that your company is about to introduvce a
new and unique name like Exxon, buying that name in all domains
is cheap insurance.

to the OP; whole grabbing productname.hk and productname.cn,
consider grabbing productnamesucks.com just so that nobody
else can.
