@Sean Sebastian Another fine junk journalism! Remember the hidden fact that Hong Kong prospered in the past because of China, since mainland China historically was blocked by the Colonialist Anglo West, and can not export their products directly to outside world; thus Hong Kong came in, and basically acted as a middle man, relabeling products from China and taking commission on them. Besides, these Protest groups/ organizations that Capitalist West helps set up in place like Hong Kong are nothing more than the forefronts of Tit-for-Tat protocol in place, in times of event that their capitalist imperialist interests are threatened; what they basically do is unleash those watch groups and organizations as part of their all out effort to destabilize any region that they feel threaten or simply to expand their interests. Moreover, many ethnic Hong Kong people are working class folks who work for these Western interests, like Western companies and businesses. blog.chinadaily.com.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=894096

actually the bill isn't dead yet, more like suspended. During the press conference, she said暫緩in Cantonese, yet when recapping in English, she said 'the bill is dead' instead. 暫緩means suspended.

Forgive us for our paranoia, especially if you are not a Hongkonger, but WE LIVE A SINGLE BORDER AWAY FROM THE MAINLAND. We have every right to be paranoid, at the very least, or is *that* a crime now, like passing a protest site to purchase/collect schoolbooks and owning laser pointers?

There nothing wrong with being paranoid.

the main reason makes HK a financial center is its access to the giant market in mainland given by China. Foreign investment would never stay in HK if HK lost its mainland market and political priorities such as ‘0’ tax given by China. China could totally transfer this priority from HK to Shanghai. One thing you need be clear is that HK GDP only ranked 4th in China. There were several opportunities for HK to upgrade its industry. HK didn’t catch the chance and continue to rely on old industries which benefits from political/economic priorities assigned by China. If HK itself cannot work hard and focus on own development, no matter how violent they become, they cannot win their own future.

Lam is CEO of the Chinese SAR of Hong Kong, her direct superior is the central government of PRC, of course she has close ties to the ruling party CCP and part of her duty is report and advice Beijing on Hong Kong issues and Vice versa from the central government. The U.S. Presidential election is not a direct vote either. The party delegates of choses the nominees for the two parties and non party affiliated citizens are not privy to the the process at all. Furthermore, the electoral college system used for the election is not a demographically equally distributed with the smallest states still garnering 3 electors regardless of the population size. Compounding that, the candidate with the most vote in the state gains all the electors.

The question is not: who is she, but: what does she do. Obviously, she's leading Hong Kong away from democracy and into the totalitarian arms of China. Her being a devout catholic has nothing to do with it. Some devout catholics did great things, others were Nazis. To be clear: I'm not comparing her with either, I'm just saying that her faith doesn't matter, it's what she does with Hong Kong that matters. Hopefully this channel is about actual international politics and doesn't aim to be a human interest channel.

Not only she has ties to China... hk is china lol

林鄭，please step down at last! Hong Kong needs a leader who cares about Hong Kong people!

Keep resisting! Don't give up!

A leader closed to China? I don’t see this as an issue cuz HK is part of China isn’t it?

Carrie Lam's closeness with China is really a blessing in disguise.Much of the protesters' anger has been directed at Lam who receives the blows on behalf of Beijing.Lam knows that prosperity of Hong Kong is tied to success of China as a strong economic power.China treats Hongkong as part of China.It wants Hongkong to be great. But it cannot give democracy now. Neither did the UK hold any elections to elect local Members of Parliament.UK acquired HK after defeating China in the Opium Wars. Even US benefited from the opium trade.

the appology video looks like a logan paul apology

Huh? Close ties to China? come one, she just an employee, her boss is China, no more explanation needed~

Shes more like a puppet than a leader. God bless HK!

Easiest way vent your frustration is blame, you see this in HK, and also US in the resent shooting incident. A problem doesn't just happen overnight.

Proud of Tsai Ing Wen, the President of Taiwan.

Who’s Donald Trump? the US leader with close ties to Israel.

She is cruel. .. China has destroyed faith in Hongkong saftey

all the Best wishes for Carrie Lam from Germany!!

Yuichiro™ Nightcore But there is 'one country two system' as China promised. Also promised in formal writing is general suffrage of legislature and top government official by Hong Kong people.

''The Hong Kong Leader With Close Ties to China'' is that not part of the job description?

This person was the reason riots started happening in the first place, and then continued to fan the flames by being incompetent. Why hasn't she stepped down?

Most likely Xi won't let her. He will make her stay and be the face of the oppression.

I'm tempted to hit those policies c:

You forgot why she even proposed the extradition bill?

"Deeds speak louder than words"

Yet to support me

I saw many umbrellas 🌂

We won't tell nobody

She had China to support. Many HK people please mc in order to get something in fact the most beneficial is mc. Because most of HK people are more weathly than China

A small number of foreigners are naive and think that watching the 3.5-minute video fully understands the Hong Kong issue in China and spend time reading the full contents of the Mutual Legal Assistance Bill on Fugitives and Criminal Matters 2019. I can't stop laughing.

"The superior is aware of righteousness, the inferior is aware of advantage"... Confusius Who's successfully aware of the latter?

HK needs to be closer to Beijing...................

I gave down vote since her wrong doings were described downsized and so lightly.

I can smell the bias just from the title.

The best

2:45 Give context to why extradition bills exist (psst, i'll give you a hint, similar judicial systems... extra super hint, HK and mainland China do not have similar judicial systems)

NYT’s reporting on Asian/Middle-East issues are far from neutral. It’s like their journalists don’t have the ability to see both sides of the story or recognize any social or historical context. They seem to forget taking of their cultural lenses. Don’t get me wrong, NYT often holds a very high bar on their journalism in domestic issues (except recent headline ofc) . But for China issues, I would trust SCMP than NYT.

Hong Kong is a part of China of course she is close to China.

Many world leaders sleep less than 5 hours daily but they are made of sterner stuff and can make good decisions for their people at large.

I am seriously torn. I'm not a Hongkonger or Chinese mainland, I'm just a Chinese descent from an asian country. In one side, China, even though its a communist, really growing rapidly on country's development and economic equality and I think Hongkong will also be a much better country, especially for those who are very very poor. On the other side, these youngsters who only want freedom and independency aren't wrong.

She's a puppet of Beijing gov't. What a shame!

Some people like to be puppets.No back bone to stand up on principles.

In China, party representatives in governments are always in charge of personnel and therefore most powerful. So is the CCP's Liaison Office in Hong Kong which has 4,000 staff members infiltrated all affairs at both county and rural district levels. The senior most CCP agent in Hong Kong is Mr. Wang Zhimin (Director of the Liaison Office).

How did she became the CE of Hong kong.??? Did China put her there or???? How did she get there I'm confused...

Jacky Chan for President

Her time is up she has badly mishandled Hong kongs affairs for long enough
