I'm going to be doing lots of cooking with this spice. Does anyone know where I can get an industrial size container of quality turmeric at a decent price in HK?

There's at least one Indian grocery shop on G/F Chungking Mansions who sells large bags of the stuff. Cheap as chips, or should I say chapatis. Also Mirador Mansions and any other Indian store.
Turmeric's very useful for improving liver function and it has recently been reported that it also has anti-cancer properties.

Also its used in some traditional Indonesian medicines (jamu).

Simple Simon, I guess you probably wouldn't want to swallow tablespoons of the raw stuff unless you want your teeth to have the Tango'd look. I looked at various sites on the Net talking about turmeric's health benefits and they refer to it in its cooked state. Best shovel as much as you can in soups, stews, curries etc. and congratulate yourself on how healthy you're being. You should then reward yourself with extra beers.
