Hong Kong: The Countdown, Part 2 - World History Documentary

A documentary covering the final year of the countdown period to the Hong-Kong hand-over. These films watch events unfold through the eyes of local people. They represent the different communities and the different social strata of Hong Kong - from street people to tycoons, from expatriates to the new Chinese administrators. In so doing we make this a personalised story instead of a political one. By getting to know these we understand the impact of the transition on a human scale. -

    Love Hong Kong such a special place to spend time . We were just there before the pandemic on our two months trip in asia. It's changed a lot since the brits left and standards and freedom has dropped. Still. I want to return 😫.

    Watch this documentary together with the last Governor of Hong Kong's presentation on the 25th and 26th anniversary of the return.

    It's 2020. Just makes me sick watching this. Wonder how many Hong Kongers emigrated to the UK

    Over 300,000 already holding Canadian passports since the early 1980's or before.

    Those who left were lucky. I wonder what became of those who chose to stay?

    So happy to see that. China has mercy to Hong Kong. They took over back from the British. Left the No fairness, no freedom, no speech to speak of the British Hong Kong colonial government. Britain never gave Hong Kong freedom, and never gave me the right to choose a governor. , I was 17 years old when Hong Kong on returned to the PRC, and I remember everything very clearly how British treated on Hongkongers.

    Britain never let you choose a Governor because your friends in Beijing expressly forbid it. In fact they advised the British prior to 1997 that if the British did give Hong Kong citizens any form of democracy they would invade and take Hong Kong back prior to 1997.....

    You’re brainwashed and ignorant, you should be ashamed of yourself for liking the CCP.
