  • Опубликовано: 4 июл 2024
  • Slowing growth, weak investor confidence and brain drain - Hong Kong, the Pearl of the Orient, may be losing its lustre. Could its future lie in the Greater Bay Area, an economic integration project joining the Special Administrative Region to Guangdong and Macau?
    Over the next decade, greater transport, administrative and economic links will tie Hong Kong inextricably to Southern China. But will Hong Kong find opportunity or obsolescence in the Greater Bay Area? And with around two decades till the end of "One Country Two Systems" in 2047, is the Greater Bay Area a way to assimilate Hong Kong with the Mainland?

      HK will not reshine under the Beijing's direct administration but will become a battle field within years.
      The only reason that Beijing's taken over of the full control of HK administration is eyeing on the trillion HKD of reserves of HK people.
      Billions or even in tens of billions HKD can now and were already been easily passed in the legislation under Beijing's direct control.
      Land and the HKD reserves are used to fuel CCP's dream in Chips industry or the oversupply of PRC infrastructure construction industry.

      Everyone in the world should have awaken and experiencing China's threat to the World under an insane administration in PRC China since Trump's presidential administration.
      HK's future lies on when PRC China collapses and breaking up into small nations or CCP/PLA's invasion on Taiwan and only then, HK will return to the british administration as the consequence of PRC's violations of the International Law on Sino-British Joint Declaration and HK will become an important military base for the US/NATO, which is crucial to the real benefits of the democratic world and the safety of Taiwan and the countries surrounding South China Sea.

    It is painful to transform and it may fail at the end. But the world is changing, global south is booming and challenging the old rich countries, as one of the old rich places, HK has lost its competitive edges to neighboring ambitious cities in many areas. Its transformation should have started years ago but money is too easy to earn before COVID so there is no enough motivation. It is changing from top to bottom now, spending lots of money, not seeing much return so far, getting increasing integrated into the big market of China, particularly the GBA, target to leverage the money and talent flow to jumpstart its fading economics. We need to survive before we thrive.

      If you remember through time. China had been diverting and strangling hk even before 1997. They just recently realized that they got hk 100% back and leaving it in shambles does them no good. Hence why this big greater bay area mumble jumble talk. It's just a distraction so the hk people won't feel depressed. Too late. Hk will never be like its formal glory. It is just going to be another Chinese city and the people there in denial. While the smarter ones and able ones have already left. They keep pretending that hk is the same as it was. However, it's more like hk trying to fool the world by wearing a mask saying it's still like pre 1997, while behind the mask is the real image as it's china.

    I need to say that as an expat living in the GBA the transport network is extensive but as for convenient, not at all. The bullet train stations are all unfortunately very far removed from the city centers and it takes a lot of effort to travel to those. Then there is the extensive security measures one has to go through when entering even just a subway station and the line up for these can and does take a very long time. Then one has to endure the shoving and pushing at the bullet train station’s security check points to enter the station; again a lot of time wasted. Then there is the waiting for the bullet train. One cannot really meticulously plan your trip around specific times because of all the security check points and long line ups; one never knows how long those can take, and the crowds of people one might encounter (yes there are crowds in all major big cities but unfortunately they are not very organized around these parts). Apart from long waiting times one is also exposed to herding like environments with endless railings and obstacles in stations to navigate instead of just free flow foot traffic. Taking a cab to a bullet train station… the traffic is a nightmare. So all in all as extensive as the network is it is not very efficient. The complete opposite can be said of HK though. Extremely efficient on every possible level. I do hope that on that mainland side they can make improvements. Then there is also customs to consider when entering and leaving HK and Macau. For comparison, I live 100km from HK Central and it’s a 1.5 hour drive should i want to drive there (excluding customs). It’s at least three hours on a good day if I take public transport from my house (excluding customs) - a far stretch from the so called one hour loop.

They keep playing word games and try to fool the world as if they were the same before 1997. That is just laughable. Technically before covid, they still have an edge but on the down trend. However after that it's over and the red Chinese tide have fully blanket hk. It's now really a Chinese city with a mask pretending to be pre 1997.

    Hong Kong is a bridge linking China and the outside world as the host said. This is a good comparison to the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge. The bridge is a great engineering marvel but with very little traffic. HK used to be an important financial centre, but if it cannot have capital flow through it. It is like the bridge, a white elephant. If there is a need to travel, with or without the bridge, there would still be people travelling between two places by hook or by crook. If the GBA is so promising, with or without HK, it would still flourish. Economics and politics affect each other. Not much have been mentioned around politics in HK in this episode. Might be because it is a taboo subject in HK now. The HK that we know is gone! It is like a person with Alzheimer. Looks the same as before, but we know the outcome.

    • @canto_v12
      @canto_v12 2 дня назад

      I wouldn't say it's a taboo subject, but rather it's been off the rails for far too long so China hit the reset button.
      The main problem with HK is that it never understood the inevitable sunset of its "Pearl of the Orient" monopoly. With China growing this rapidly and having a dozen seaports just like HK, how long can you stay relevant as "exporter of cheap Chinese goods"?
      The fallacy of the China-hating mindset is that those wallowing on this mentality wish that China stayed poor forever. A big, big mistake. Hong Kong was built to exploit China of the 1980s. Whether it wants to develop a stronger local economy or adapt with China's tech boom, either way it is woefully unprepared to coexist with the China of the 21st century.

    The domestic helper, employed by a Hong Kong family through a local employment agency, started showing symptoms such as red spots and swelling in her limbs within weeks of starting her job. Her condition deteriorated rapidly, leading to her admission to the hospital, where she was diagnosed with leprosy on 14th June, 2024, believed to have been contracted in her home country, the Philippines.

    For the CCP the primary objective of the "Greater Bay Area" initiative appears to be the deliberate reduction of Hong Kong's financial prominence. This strategy is emblematic of the CCP's iron-fisted approach to governance and its willingness to pursue its goals at any cost, including the autonomy and economic significance of Hong Kong.
    it becomes clear that the CCP's actions are not merely about regional development but are part of a calculated effort to consolidate control and suppress dissent. This approach underscores the lengths to which the CCP is willing to go to maintain its grip on power, often at the expense of economic efficiency and individual freedoms - the current “Spot and Report” campaign says it all.

    HongKong would be overshadowed by the Cities of Shanghai, Shenzen, and their likes. Just based from my opinion. Basic logic that the Central Government would put emphasis in the development of a financial hub created by the party/`s central government. And the central government perceived Hongkongers not your typical Chinese. (Sons and daughters never raised by them). So they would try to develop a financial district that would be the symbol of China, according to their image. For me the beauty of HongKong and Macao is having that unique identity. The crossbreed of East and West. The vibrant territory may loose some of its glitters/shine incase the west migrated out of the area.

They do not need middle men in dealing with outside world since Premier Teng opening up china and joining WTO. Hong kong can fit in as another outpost of china in the new century.

    GBAE integration with the mainland is inevitable and undoubtably beneficial for HK in the long term. However, this gain will be offset by HK losing its status as one of the major international financial hubs, affecting the city adversely. This phenomenon has already begun, with decreasing FDI, departure of foreign enterprises and talents. HK certainly benefit when it integrates with other cities in the area, what happens when China economy continues its current trajectory and faces additional economic headwinds? No common law, no financial transparency, stability and investor confidence. This documentary also ignores another large negative impact, how this close integration will affect ordinary HKongers, who are way more Westernized in terms of tastes and mindsets than the mainlanders.

    HK container port is down. Western financial firms are leaving HK in large numbers. With more Western countries not giving HK trade privileges. Rich people leaving HK.

      China will have 1.2bn in the middle income category by 2027- Brookings Institution. So those who leave good riddance then. Where would they go for long term gain!
      China’s growth plans are robust with development in so many mega first tier cities. Compare that with U.K., only London is something. That’s why U.K. is stuck with little growth! Lousy crumbling infrastructure, health care and education facilities!
