Hong Kong, 20 years after the handover

What lays ahead? I had many a good run ashore in Honkers.

The Chinese will never let go of Hong Kong. Most likely result is the protesters will be crushed. The only way to achieve change in China is through internal change within the Communist Party.

Shanghai and Singapore have overtaken Hong Kong as the major business hub in Asia. In 2047, when the basic law and all current agreements can be scrapped, then HK will come under the " one country, one system " philosophy. A fait accompli, in effect. Of more concern, I believe , is the fate of Taiwan. Under the radar at the moment. Watch that space.
