  2.  @TaronWong-e6w : Chow was a loyalist. Cos he supported Hans Chinese. Cos Britain allowed non-Hans Chinese to enter the home turfs of some Hans Chinese. And those lands were under Imperial edict. This is why it was important that, nobody outside without the right authorities to enter. Cos it was family land, as far as they are concerned. Anybody trespassing is seen as an outsider, and by Tang Code.. they could be killed. And have their heads chopped off. In fact, this is what happened to some innocent individuals... and Britain did not allow the correct people to be checked. i.e. The relatives of those in HK.. were and had their heads chopped off.. when they fought that their family members were being bullied. So then they were killed. The trespassers did not know that, they were recruited by the British... and did their deeds. This is why that also kicked off even MORE events as well.... (and these details, only recently are surfacing actually)... Which I find atrocious. This is on top of.. or not including... foreign traders etc.. Of different races etc. (And then also the religious entities too.) Also not including the Dutch dispora that was there.... from like 1500s... and those issues too.. And this is why today, they seem to be so against what is happening too. This is why even today, the Jews... whose land is being protected now.. and those who lives in HK that are jews.. are not even supporting the right side either. They don't even voice their concerns ?? At all. Cos one day, this is their land... and they need to go back.

  6.  @ucsdvc  : If the Old Tang Code existed, he would have had his head chopped off already. Death penalty was abolished in recent years. That is because, nobody knows who is whose land and on which piece of turf. If this is your hometown, and heung ha.. then you would always be welcomed. But if you are not.. then you would not be so. As in bloodline, kind of "right of abode". Ms Yip kind of confused the issue here somewhere.. or somehow... And this whole notion of..."are you chinese" is also in question too.... Cos some of the "right of abode"... does not have chinese parents. At all. not any more. So therefore they should not have an actual residency. Especially some of the Thais or the other SE Asians.... they are hoarding their places in HK only. China does not accept dual nationalities. And by nationality, they mean, an ancestor that is and was an actual Chinese elite. From the old dynasties.. basically. THAT is what they mean !!!!! THIS is what people meant by Human Rights Act. What has ended as.. is that, people are not even allowed to go back to their ancestral homes... And this is why even Taiwan is kicking off too... One of their so called politician deliberately made a point.. by entering into the mainland, to find his ancestors' grave.. and then to clean it. This was broadcasted ALL over the Chinese media... And I bet this was not even shown in Western medias at all..... And it definitely was NOT actually said in the likes of SCMP either !!! (Even THAT papers has been hijacked too !!!!!! ) It was set up by a high level Mr Tse... who was an old Dynastic Scholar... and today, who is sitting on this paper? It should be family owned !!!!! And not have CCP sitting on it at all ????.... Or they should have hired their next of kins and descendents instead... and not to be used this way by American owners or whatever... and making waves either. This is absolute trash. The Alibaba and the Tencents is owned or has the Ma's family name. So how come the old SCMP.. is not and does not have the Tse's families sitting in there ????

  8. How about changing this situation around ? Excessive greed from the mainland.. has targetted and worried other foreign countries to the extent that Mr Lai and his company is being used here as a scapegoat and a pawn in the game of powers that exists inside the PRC and the mainland. Despite.. China.. growing for years... and did not have an issue.. and now he is thrown under the bus, cos suddenly... the PRC decided to put the World Bank's so called capitalism and prediction ABOVE the needs of genuine Chinese people. And the courts are treating him.... to be used... allowing foreigners.. to put HIM and to take HIM down... against.... his rights, as a Chinese National... Money is man-made. Capitalism is a mere concept !!!!!!! This man CANNOT die and he CANNOT be jailed !!!!! And USA is a relatively NEW country as well !!! How about that.... and it is insane that.. a newish country.. can take down the old country, that is China. Absolutely rubbish ! And PRC is also new too. So now, we see old elites like him... that is, a genuine old country.. being targetted to "modernise" !?!!!!!..... This is NOT acceptable !!!!!!! ..... It is like seeing Russians... or Northern elites... trying to actually bulldoze over the entire country ? Which we know. for certain. And all these comments as well.. about China.. taking over HK etc etc etc.. It has always been China. And PRC is NOT China !!! Using these kind of word games.. playing and offsetting people as well.. and mis-neglecting.. and deliberately misleading as well.... Enough.

  9. Britain did have "elections". Cos they had local representatives that did things.. and it was paid positions too... as far as I recall.... They were called "Functional Groups".... and reps come together to discuss thing. Ask anybody about this !... So why are people saying that this was not as so !!!!! .... The problem is that, those who were both in functional groups.. and then the reps... it is meant to equalise the society. But now.. it looks like, there is no equalities. Some people took advantages and ran off even. Or so. This is why nobody seems to care any more. Cos they don't "respect" the existing people. Why the people "respected" others were basically because they were also related in one form or another too. and so therefore doing business, which meant it raises both yourself and your families too. (And also extended families too.) So when more of the mainland individuals came over.. a lot of the people kicked off... cos it was intruding on their own hometowns. (By right... this is an old traditional law as well... with regards to families.) So some historians are saying that, the old chinese laws existed. As well as the Western laws in parallel... and hence the "one country, two system" concept came about... and the subsequent latter group of people... are using English to marginalise, and to manipulate the finance part.. which is ruining these basic concepts.. and even the old Chinese laws as well... THIS is why people are kicking off too. Cos they arranged their lives to be supporting such things !!!! And the current so called "Funds"... (a fund, can be actually ran by a child, somebody that is not even 18 years old?)... And these so called "Family Office"..... which is like... when was this introduced? It did not existed befor ein the past. Especially where merchant tradings were concerned. So how come the locals did not have these family offices, and were respected... but they are forced to become actual "indigenous"... and then... the merchants... their wealth were absorbed by the financiers??? Why the inequalities here? Do we need to bring back in lineage laws, in order for people to back off here ???????? Cos this is what Japan has created. And South Korea has created too... and even in Taiwan, they don't say it.. but I know that they have implemented such things too... and have so called "army ex leaders" to push back sometimes.. when they deviate. Same with Japan. Their so called ex-samurai/landlords/Yukuta......

  15.  @Andrew-rc3vh  : The Brits that were there, left... Cos many were Lords etc. And they left with their families. The ones that were left.. or the subsequent people were NOT the local Cantonese.. and it was NOT the Brits... and it was more or less an "open door policy"... of migrants. And THIS is not being handled. And this is part of the issue too. There are Pakistanis... some were some of the older Indians.. but then, suddenly "muslims" out of nowhere-ville as well.. Even the local papers did NOT recognise this at all ? And even recently... SOME decent writers are FINALLY... writing from THEIR perspectives !!! It never was a free for all at all... and the Brits gave it back.. cos it couldn't control its borders anyway. After 1997.. It had gotten worst ! Thai people. Filipinos. Indonesians. etc etc etc etc. And then, not the mainland people too. Not that the mainland are being discriminated.. but many of them violate existing local laws.. despite people teaching them etc. And then also a lot of ex-financiers as well.. taking funds... and running with it.. and ruining even MORE of the city too... Cos nobody is taking control.. and this is why the financial mess that is the PRC now.. happened. THAT did not take long, did it ? Cos nobody disputed it. And that move, was to anchor the USA from economic collapse... so what is happening now? .... China wants to integrate its own financial system with the world, but without the authorisation of the world first? This will lead to war. (And when we say "global finance", we don't mean those "mom and pop stores", which China is SO insistent on...... ) The situation is getting worst and worst.... Just a lot of diplomats and not much actions or inactions.... I don't even know how come HK was so transient... in nature... As my grandfather's hometown.. I am quite surprised at its transient nature.. to the Nth degree. There is no Cantonese culture left any more at all any way. Just a typical ex-pat foreign party town, with lapping SE Asian ladies, and lady boys etc.... (Despite there being a strong Christian or strong Catholic churches everywhere in SE Asia.) That is a joke for a start. Cos nobody that has sex, that many times.. and with their own family members, but without knowing this... and then attend churches.... etc etc etc. And the state does NOT steps in either !!!! 300 million, 90 million people, and it keeps on growing... exponentially. No wonder HK is taken back and strict laws are thrown down. People does not even practise family planning either. So much for these so called "foreign businesses".. indeed...!!!!!! And then the stupid communist model and Marxism argument.... junk. What junk. No wonder they come down tough. Yet, the remaining chinese assumes it would be like communism, rather than just basic Confucianism and Chinese FAMILY values... !!!!

  18. Well... this is the thing.... cos this whole "We don't like the USA" angle... that only happened AFTER 97... Cos before that, it was a mere small place... doing its own thing.. and a lot of BRitish companies, and some European companies entered into HK as well to do business. And that partially did happen, only because Britain was also part of the EU too. So those other EU countries decided to do businesses with China. And of course, you also have the backing of the SE Asian countries who also contributed too.. and everything seems to work well.... And this uplifted China, like, A LOT.... (but where did those money gone to in the end?).... So many raised their own countries, back into SE Asia... others, just left... and now... It tries to.. take some form of control. But this kind of case, is like, a "retrospective" case as well now... Cos whatever the outcome, you cannot recreate back the way that the investments happened. (And of course... all or most SE Asians have left too... along with Europeans.. etc etc etc....) He would not be in this predicament, if it was not for the Sino-Joint Declaration being signed etc. (And what China, that is, the PRC is wanting to do.. is actually to rollout their own control... all over... and still want to keep the financial centre, and do one belt one road, but this is not possible any more.) Or at all. (And really, this is also about businesses and money too.... Everybody inside China, knows that it is trying to do "green finance"... whereas the "old commonwealth" is trying to do "old finance".. and we can see who is winning here really.... So... don't trust everything that you read either.)

  19.  @jl2405  : But the other thing is... you take down Jimmy Lai... the Lai family tree is not going to forgive you as well ? And even now... I think the Lai name... is a strong surname for Vietnam as well.. if my research is correct.. and the Lai family have done a LOT for HK.... and its heritage is even OLDER... than Xi's !!!!! You take down these old chinese family surnames.. and those remaining HANS... This is going to cause CHAOS ! I tell you !!!!! Like, it is not already. Those who always support Northern Hans Chinese, but slowly and over time, take out the Southern Hans Chinese... This is NOT acceptable by any means ??? These family trees are going extinct !..... It is like.. imagine going into Guizhouz... or even Guang Xi... and then kick off... HK was, quite an actual close-knitw autonomous areas... and it has a lot of the older Imperial Civil servants that dated up to.. and around the Song dynasties as well... So for the sake of "Modern day communism".... The entire erasure of these remaining branches of those family trees need to go ? I don't think so !!!!!!! Nobody cares about modern day.... softwares or militaries or whatever... cos these are modern day made rules.. even under a mere 100 years ago.. these things did not exist !!!! And the people carried on, and they prospered ! Don't let these family trees die out. Imagine China, without chinese people? That is a travesty actually... like... this lockdown has not allowed many more individuals being neglected, and killed off? They were. And they did. I didn't get what was going on.... for a long while. Cos it makes no sense. Just because we cannot agree on actually.... what is considered as "news" ???.... So then it means more people dying ???... And this is not even a period of time whereby people are fighting for resources either... Cos there ought to be enough to go round by now. He is right to push back sometimes... And Tang.... (who was also an actual old dynastic name as well).... But then, so was Lai. In fact, the Lai's surname is older than the Tang's....
