Bringing electrical items from the UK

Hi

I'm coming over to live in Hong Kong for a while from November. I'm currently working out how I should manage the relocation budget my company's offering me. Is it possible to bring smallish white goods from the UK and use them on Hong Kong's voltage? Things like hairdryers, stereos, IPOD speakers etc etc? I've got lots of things I love and don't really want to leave behind if I can avoid it.

Thanks in advance
