Indeed. The PRC should have left the HK people with no choice as the British has done.

China has no interest in making Hong Kong "like the mainland". They cannot, however, allow Hong Kong to have no national security legislation, which allows the people there to take money from foreign countries and destroy the city for foreign interests. The Basic Law always required Hong Kong to enact national security legislation, and the mainland waited patiently for 23 years for the Hong Kong government to fulfill their constitutional duty, but they never did. Now Hong Kong is just like any other territory in the world, as it has national security legislation.

Hong Kong will still have its identity just like any cities in China. Just as Hong Kong is a part of China.

nothing wrong with holding multiple passports as hong kong with its own system allows it

communists always flee to capitalist countries once their money gets found out

Indians from India holds multiple passports, and they are everywhere in the world snatching jobs from the local people.

Why does Hong Kong commemorate Tiananmen which doesn't concern them because at that time Hong Kong was British colonial. However why doesn't Hong Kong commemorate all the fallen ancestors who fought against British aggression during the 0pium Wars? Which do concern them because thats the reason why Hong Kong got seperated in the first place and all the trouble now that comes with it. Some even waving the British colonial flag proudly, their ancestors in their graves would twist and turn in agony if they knew about it. Till this day U.K. havent officially apologized, the Royal Family legacy who constituted these atrocities still exist today. CCP have kept their promise to share the wealth with their people years after that crackdown. So if you can forgive the British, then you also can forgive the CCP

Tian Ann Men had already been relived and re-enacted in HK during the 2019-2020 riots. Both Tien Ann Men and HK riots 2019-2020 were works of Western intervention using their ideology of democracy and freedom, which they themselves have failed to put into effective practice. Frankly, there have been lots of Tien Ann Men incidents recurring in the West with a lot of police brutality meted on the protestors. Why do you want to recall Tien Ann Men when you can read about these similar events happening in the West every now and then? We can learn from the west what has worked, and more so what has failed to work with their brand of freedom and democracy.

@@kashe747 by the way you ask why do we remember tianmen massacre? because we want people like you to look at the fact ccp killed people, ccp is an evil force and then realise supporting an evil force is evil

@@kashe747 Why do you want people to forget Tianmen? because you know it is an evil thing caused by ccp and you want to hide it, why do you want to hide the crime of ccp? because you are evil like them

He's a CCP puppet boy. Of course he didn't say anything of substance.

hmmm i wonder what is the reason so many ppl escape ccp china and go to hk 🤔🤔

That's because the anti-china rhetoric had been ceafted inside their heads since they were young..made them thinking China is more backward than them..only those cross the ocean and see for themselves that China had evolved into what they dreamed, will ditch the "self hatred" mindset

Ask people from Middle East if they are happy that some of them are free from their worst dictators. That's what happens when you are an idealist that doesn't think about the future after overthrowing dictators.

For lots of asian, that is democracy..government work for the people is democracy. Government work base on majority people's interest is democracy.. "Freedom" to yell at presidents, to swear at politicians isn't freedom and democracy but *evidence of failing government, evidence of foolish government* Westerners trap with ideology only, without grasp the essence of democracy. And thinking that swearing at your leaders are democracy and freedom. Ideology give you no food, ideology give you no security, ideology give you nothing, except *false hope!* 😅😅😅

Many people living in western democracies are not happy either. They should find out why, rather to tell everyone in the world to live like them.

as ccp have turned china into the second largest economy of the world, it is not too bad of an idea to do exactly what the ccp does

@@kashe747 Help from the USA, you forgot to mention that. Tell the truth, unlike the CCP.

Why? The CCP is a joke.

@@joshuahernandez3216 oh so USA helped china to prosper, but even with decades of aid couldn't make African nations prosper, thats very odd. China prosperity has nothing to do with USA, it is because of the hard work of chinese, USA only profited of off China.

​@@joshuahernandez3216the benefit was mutual. US citizens got cheap Xmas presents made by Chinese mothers working overtime over Chinese New Year for a dollar a day.

the fact you can post here on youtube, means hong kong still has freedom

@@kashe747Jesus. Are you delusional?

He is not the most charismatic speaker (Lhatoo is very charismatic), but he tries to convey important details even in a language that is not his forte.

HK's Four Key Strategies for Economic Development: 1. [Housing] Housing is a perennial problem spanning many years. Drastic and bold action is needed to solve the housing crisis. [Strategy] Build reasonably sized public housing flats for all HK residents who are unable to afford private property (minimum occupation period required to prevent speculation in resale market) in a 2-phase approach (first phase catering to those who need housing urgently) within 5 years, using prefabricated units and putting in place supporting infrastructure and facilities (key recommendation). 2. [Talent & Enterprise] The global competition for talent, especially, top talent is stiff. Talent is the lifeblood of every economy. [Strategy] Attract top talent and enterprises with special work visas, residency, tax concessions and co-investment funding schemes. 3. [Cross-Border Collaborations] The Greater Bay Area (GBA) is a hive of opportunity, talent, innovation and enterprise. HK will do well by integrating itself more closely with the Motherland's economic development. [Strategy] Deepen HK's business links with Guangzhou and notably, Shenzhen to position itself as a financial and business hub attracting talent, innovation, enterprise and capital. 4. [Regional Cooperation & Internationalisation] To further internationalise HK as a financial and business hub, its unique advantages need to be maximised and Southeast Asia (SEA) and the Middle East leveraged through extensive cooperation with counterparts. [Strategy] Strengthen HK's network of business linkages and relationships with ASEAN and Gulf states to entrench itself as a leading international financial centre, specialising in cross-border transactions and financing. These outreach efforts should dovetail with the Motherland's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) for synergies and economic spinoffs. Public consultation and communications should be adhered to wherever necessary to enhance policy delivery and effectiveness in engendering trust and buy-in. This is particularly true for hot button issues like housing and talent that could potentially cause widespread discontent and social unrest. More communication is needed at strategic points in time on these fronts.

Because they have two systems

@@misterbig9025 and two ducks

I have to agree, it's a shame to see him reduced to this.

Lhatoo is a vocal critic of the 2019 unrest. To the point that he received personal threats from the protest movement.

By your logic, that is what Xi Jinping is doing, sorting out HK. It is just a city in China.

China is OK, HK isn't

Ukus agent, paid comment.

​@@tonyl7337not so convincing when the US claimed to give 'freedom' and 'liberty' to Iraqis when ≥2 millions Iraqi men,women children died If you think prosecution and use of tear gases is 'oppression',what do you make of how US police arrested a protestor who was reciting the Bible in a rally? Freedom of religion is in the US Constitution you know

China been the second largest economy for decades, its doing just fine, while the west is in another War 😂😂😂

@@ToiChutGongWuokay Wumao

Man has never known what 'rule of law' means and the fundamental law of Hong Kong

How can you be a traitor when his loyalty is in one country 2 systems, while the protesters just want to be a separate country.

I respect Yondon. He loves peace and harmony, and he is not a trouble maker. There were so many journalists from HK and the West who were trouble makers inciting so much hate and anger among the Hong Kong people during the riots in 2019-2022 with their news coverage. Yonder was among the few media journalists in HK with journalistic ethics calling for rational thinking , peace and harmony during those times in 2019-2020 when negative group think phenomenon was wrecking HK like a disease. Hong Kong is a part of China, that is a non-issue, and Hong Kong will gradually shed off the false British and western influence, and nurture its own identity like Shanghai, Chengdu, Qingdao, etc.

He has the right to his own opinion and presents it as such. Unlike the "pro-protest" news outlets which put a microscope on police conduct shortcomings, while wholesale ignoring the transgressions of the riots and their assault on the public, and then presenting all of that as fact.

hk isn't gone. just the hk of 2000-2015 is gone, remember what the headlines were under cy

Oh my the whole region is inundated and disappeared from this world!!! Trust this flat earther!!
