The open flaunting of the US flag and the Union jack gives the impression that foreign powers are working with local forces to undermine the state.

COMMENT | The situation in Hong Kong is certainly not a satisfactory state of affairs. There is unhappiness among the deprived Hong Kong people with the gross income inequality and crowded housing conditions created by years of British colonialism and capitalism.

Nevertheless, it is hypocritical that the likes of US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and former Hong Kong governor Chris Patten should put their names to a memorandum that has warned China that a new Chinese security law for Hong Kong is a “comprehensive assault” on its rights and freedoms and “cannot be tolerated”.

They claim to have “grave concerns” about the legislation and fear it would jeopardise the city’s future. Chris Patten says the decision by the Chinese government to “unilaterally impose national security legislation in Hong Kong” is unacceptable while Mike Pompeo has described it as a “death knell” for the city’s autonomy and has threatened reprisals. I understand some Asean, including Malaysian, parliamentarians have also signed this US/British inspired memorandum.

Foreign/ local Its always about money to make Minus political responsibilty To HK's special status 1 country 2 systems On going work in pro/regress Foreigners piece of jewel Next to World's largest economy of 1.4 billion market US EU Canada UK Aust Cant add up West behave/ Quit

Shame on this guy. most of us are opinionated about the hypocrisy of some western politicians But often stood aloof when the threat is near to us. Mind you, HK is our neighbour & threat of freedom to the people in HK also means interference in your region might not be far away.

Foreigners should not meddle with their internal affairs.

Hong Kong now is under the jurisdiction of Chinese territory after the hand-over from the British Empire since 1997.There is no way HK can be succeeded from Chinese rule and return to the British. They can either adhere or depart as migrants to other foreign countries.

No. Foreigners should stop communist from illegal invasion.

This is the 21st century. Young people of Hong Kong do not need the greedy arrogant fellows of the Communist Party of China to tell them how to live their lives. Communist Party of China should stay out of Hong Kong's affairs.
