HK only really has two cards to play – legal infrastructure and preferential access to China. Those interviewed in the video who say the NSL isn't a threat are ignoring that it sets a precedent for allowing China to interfere in other ways such as business. Once 2047 comes around, HK will just be another Chinese city.
of course money doesn't care if its war or dictatorships.. these rich criminals just want to make money. in that case scenarios like this is good for them.
“Asia-lite in the sense that it’s very comfortable to be there” ….. what?
sense of betrayal? Why not report on why the extradition bill was introduced in the first place? Does that guy murdering his pregnant GF not warrant a change in the laws so criminals cant use this as a loophole, while serving as a safe haven? Besides Hong Kong is more free than any western country today,. In no western country will their police officers not resort to violence if petrol bombs are being thrown at them for a year.
China will be China with or without Hong Kong, Hong Kong will collapse without China
One of the guy even had the nerve to mention free speech when these rioters didnt even understand the meaning of free speech as they physically assaulted anyone that dared voice and opposing view to them. That Nathan guy needs to lay of the drugs.
so many white people in this video, is this really about an asian city?
The CCP is no friend of the free world. They are the new threat to the democratic countries.
Britain has no say in the world, a second rate country.
Britain should think more about its future. Hong Kong is the bridge of Chinese Mainland, and the future will definitely be better and better. Britain is only one leg of the United States.
Ya a bunch of fools the whole system is about to collapse and ww3 in 2024 will wipe out all these pyramide scheme centers. Einstein was right ww4 will be done with sticks and stones
0:25 immigrants, not expats. Rich Western immigrants are still immigrants, not expats
2:56 the guy in blue was about to walk in to the camera, realized it and changed course immediately
When you are in someone's else house, respect the host.
Hong Kong is run by London and Shanghai is more of a Chinese Banking centre /. Remember World Finance is based on US dollar and when the reset happens in the future – (collapse of US dollar). Remember when Hong Kong first lease from China expired and rerplaced by 50 year lease it meant the end of Hong Kong goverment run by the Jockey Club of Hong Kong!.So much for Democracy and Law and over!. When USA collapses Shanghai will be ready!.
When the choice comes down to either 💰 or fictional western values and principles, foreign bankers will choose 💰 hands down 😎
Funny video.
Tokyo: “Am I a joke to you ?”
I mean sun had set for the British empire a long time ago. The only king is USA. If Wall Street stays rooted in Hong Kong, then HK has a bright future. But the best financial center will still be NYC.
content aside, the production quality is really off… it looks like something from the 90s. i mean, seriously? you need to catch up, financial times
Very nice fair interviews of both side views only time will tell who’s right and wrong
HK is China now, so stop with illusions
If you go to New York, play by American rules or leave. Same case with China. Hong Kong is Chinese not British. Follow their rules or leave
If you are involved in politics. You are in trouble. Biz ok politics
It's funny that they didn't even know Hong Kong is China, I am judging their intent and professionalism…

It was opium and illegal trade that made Hong Kong.
Liberate Hong Kong. Revolution our times.
