Apple Tree Yard, So I suppose you're subjected to the quiet but desperate brutality everyday by the way you comment on this subject? Have you ever lived there? Do you know people there? or How long have you been living in HK?
I'm a HK local and must say there were mixed feelings when HK got handed back to China back in 97'. I liked the English and thought the Chinese gov was bad too due to their communist nature. I knew we had to live with it watching the English flag gone down while the red flag went up. But now it has already been the 11th year I must say I'm impressed by how the PRC is changing and reforming. Can you say it's still a pure communist country? I wouldn't. It's more a socialist regime. and for the 11 years of Chinese rule in HK, no complaints really.
Call me brain washed or patriotic , I was educated overseas but was never ashamed to admit that i'm Chinese.
I don't see why you guys are so upset on this issue when you guys aren't even Chinese.
At the end of the day, I don't see how Olympics and politics can mix together , and for those who disagrees,
just get out of this Country, get out of Hong Kong instead of complaining all day long.
