Yes, many Hongkongers flee before the handover...

I myself an Austrian, have 2 HK friends. The one, indeed an ethnic chinese, but britisher as a Brit, took the handover personally and was deeply grieved The other one, a typically pragmatic chinese, was not appalled about, but saw clearly, that the days of autonomy were counted thereafter, altough the warranties...

Sadly one of the most loyal British Colony handovered when they actually more loyal and close to Great Britain than Communist China. Many Hongkongers flee to avoid the Chinese Communist Regime. Many Hongkong Elders cried when they heard the news about the death of Queen Elizabeth II, this shows the loyality of Hongkongers to the British Monarchy.... Remember, when they proudly waved the British Flag and sing "God Save The Queen" when they protested to the Chinese Regime.... Hongkong was a loyal colony

As a Hong Konger, thank you very much indeed. Hong Kong will always, always be British in our deep hearts. Most of the HK people loves Britain and see it as their motherland.

I pray for Hong Kong to be freed from its horrible oppression and return to its former glory as a Filipino. Britain leaving was a terrible tragedy. Brothers against the CCP, forever and always. 🇵🇭❤️🇭🇰 ☂️☂️☂️

@@Mythee was it always good? no. was it ''nasty'? I don't think so, not necessarily.

So pros and cons, as with everything.
