He probably would want to apply for permanent resident status after I-130 is approved. If his application can succeed, depends on many factors. Consult with an attorney.

When people talk about sponsoring someone to come to the U.S., usually they mean petitioning for that person's green card. You cannot sponsor your mother-in-law. You wife can petition for her mother, but the process will take several years - unless your wife becomes a U.S. citizen. If, however, all you want is for your mother-in-law to come and visit with you for up to 6 months, the situation is much simpler. One does not need a relative's petition to obtain a visitor's visa (B2). However, if you write a letter to the U.S. Consul in Hong Kong explaining that your mother-in-law would like to come only for a short stay, has no intention of remaining in the U.S., and that you have the means of supporting her here (attach your most recent federal tax return and a current letter confirming your employment, with 3-4 recent pay stubs), then her chances of obtaining a B2 visa will increase.
