Asian markets close in green on Wednesday

Asian equity markets ended in green on Wednesday, with sentiment helped by broad gains on Wall Street before an expected rise in U.S. interest rates later in the day. Hong Kong stocks rebounded and breaking a nine-session losing streak as energy shares surged. Chinese shares closed higher, with energy stocks gaining ground after China's top planning body, the National Development and Reform Commission, suspended a retail oil price cut that was scheduled for Wednesday and said it would adjust the current pricing mechanism in a bid to combat air pollution, and news that China plans to issue significantly more government bonds next year to aid the economy.
