i was in Hong Kong during that outbreak and as far as I remember the first place reported SARS cases is HK. Then after extensive research and investigation they found that it was a man from mainland China who brough and eventually spread the virus in HK. And then there was also this professor from mainland China who started spreading it in a hotel ( he was about to attend a conference or something in HK).

They later confirmed that the very first case was in Guangzhou province, China, where some people consumed some kind of wild animal ( cant remember)

But I might be wrong though as I was in HK and I was more concern about local cases ...
I suggest you to take a look at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SARS
which should give you a more complete and accurate idea
