Hong Kong looking better then ever...and it is so much more civilized now. Just check part of the video with the market with chickens omg like worst parts of New Delhi. Now even worst parts of HK looking way better than that

why? you wish you were British? then move. Quality of life in HK is higher now than it was back then.

@@biber9979 exactly... HK had many slum like conditions and much higher crime back then. people forget that in some philosophical argument about "freedom"... as if they had democracy under the British

@@Amidat You must be either a CCP bot, or someone who's brainwashed by the CCP. Back then you can have a protest of any number without being approved by the police. You could talk shit about the government without a fear of being arrested. You could publish any movie, TV shows, or books mocking or making fun of the British government. Try that now in HK and see how much "democracy" you have now.

Draconian racial seggregation mirroring the Apartheid in South Africa was practised in Hong Kong for the first 100 years of colonization under Britain from 1840s to 1940s. Back then, most of decent places were reserved for the Europeans only, with the rare exception of Hong Kong Museum where the local Chinese were allowed to enter but only at a time window before 8:00 am in workdays and at night, there was a curfew policy for the Chinese and if they really had to leave their houses, they must carry a lantern at all times visible to the "public eyes" (those of Europeans of course) but no such restrictions were for the Europeans. Only after the WWII did the British start to change how it ruled the local people in Hong Kong, for example, government jobs of the low ranks started to accept the local Chinese (which was entirely impossible for the first 100 years) but racial discrimination at the street level was still daily occurance.

I pulled my meat a couple of times

as someone from HK that hit me hard 💀💀

Free Hong Kong

Right?!

you expected them to let riots happen???

"Golden age"? You mean the economic miracles built by an abundant labor force formed by mainlanders fleeing to HK? Or the proliferation of financial sector that followed due to the uprise of China's economy? Be honest and be educated. HK's success owed much to China one way or another. The Brits had little to do with it because if they did have big influence, where the hell are the other British colonies in the world today, economically speaking? Somehow our stupid kids ruined this by asking for something ridiculous, and in a violent way. Some of them were treated unfairly, yes. But they F'ed up. Some of them even wanted this, which only made them enemy of HK, strictly speaking.

I wanna say, if the British people come back to Hong Kong.? This place would suppose do not want me to stay in. I don't mind to leave this place which I born and raised.

@@wangwang2048Who cares?

Ok it has been 30 years, now what?

lol not good enuf. maybe travel ch

Me too.

Yeah, the narrator is an absolute idiot.

stolen by the UK is a better way to phrase it.

So, keep on Chinese rule. If the British would take back to Hong Kong after 2047? Then I will leave

@@wangwang2048 According to the FT, 150,000 people (net) have already left HK since the end of 2021.

and that is exactly where it belongs.

should never had been British in the first place

so sad

How do you define "Freedom" and human right, or more importantly, how is "Human" defined? Is it same as how the West define it? How do you perceive Palestinians' human rights?

@@franklekwan5860，

人權不代表可以殺人放火，任意傷人，用火燒人及搗毀店舖，破壞公物等，那班傢伙全沒律守人權，至導致有國安法設立，牠們自己卻跑到外國去，不肯承擔責任！

Virus? That's before CPC crushed the freedom of HK. In the rest of the world the pandemic ended in 2021...

Motherland=United Kingdom

complete nonsense
