HK is an example of failure to change with the times. Some HKers need to understand that HK is part of an economic cluster, not a standalone window to China anymore.
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.

Now that the CCP is in charge, it can choose which city to prioritize in terms of finance and trade. There is no longer any separate Hong Kong government electorate which can change with times at a different pace or direction than the mainland.
@@DarkRockslizer Everyone doing their own thing means a mess, a waste of resources, and a duplication of effort. Are you one of those HKers from the old times who failed to change with the times too?

Integrating to Greater Bay Area means HK property prices and salaries will be getting to be the same. How scary is it ! Hong Kong people still don't know the problem.
Hong Kong was rich because it used to be the only way to invest in the mainland or China for the rest of the world. Since 1990 that was no longer the case so Hong Kong began to decline since then
The survival and prosperity of HKSAR moving forward will depend mainly on its integration into China's GBA. Especially when the foreign HQs in HKSAR started to move to China or elsewhere for convenience in operation

I reckon that no matter how hard Hong Kong tries to integrate or stay aloof, neither way would save Hong Kong from failing tbh. Integration could kill Hong Kong (at least the very concept) but the current environment has changed, no longer allowing HK to play wingman. Sadly, the existence of Hong Kong has never been sustainable; it has always been an oddity in history somehow gaining advantages from its neighbour's (not particularly china, SEA countries as well) timely misfortunes. There's very little HK can do to change that given it physical and geopolitical limitation, not like it's their fault but it's reality, just like Detroit never had the capacity to transform since its existence and establishment were conditioned.
@@andytinganyang4706 I think that too will change as Chinese cities have become much more developed than HK. Previously, it was a destination as people from the “mainland” wanted to see this marvelously advanced city, and also wanted to shop there. This is no longer the case as its prices are higher and its development cannot compare to the first line cities in China. HK residents themselves now go to Shenzhen at the weekend for shopping and entertainment rather than do this at home. HK also sealed its fate Re Chinese tourism when it began to insult the mainland Chinese, egged on by Apple Daily which labeled the mainlanders “locusts”. I think the “one country two systems” has also been a tragedy for HK as it has been mired in poor governance due to the ineffectual bureaucrats left over from the colonial era maintaining power and kowtowing to the plutocrats and property developers while China has maintained a hands-off approach, even as their own cities have been much more efficiently and effectively governed.
32:00 "Hong Kong's new draconian national security law." Draconian? The USA and UK also have national security laws, and they are far more "draconian." Do your research and you will learn the truth. Basic Law required Hong Kong to enact a national security law decades ago, but Hong Kong's Legislative Council shirked its responsibility. Beijing had no choice but to step in and rectify the matter. This is the only reason that order and peace have been restored to Hong Kong.
Are you ok? China is the only country with zero rules of law. It's about time you get out of your well and go visit and live in China and compare things to UK and USA.

Eventually, HKSAR will become one of the ten most important cities of China. Its future, prosperity, and well-being will depend on how fast it integrates with China's GBA region
Hong Kong was called "The Pearl of the Orient" at one time. But now it is "The Pig of the Orient" The Chinese pronunciations of "pearl" and "pig" are identical. The change is because the taking over of Hong Kong by the Chinese government. It is no longer an international city. It is just one of the many cities of China. It's a shame. I was born there, and I miss the old Hong Kong.
The CPP destroyed Hong Kong. Who wants to live in a place where you can be arrested and thrown in jail on a flimsy context? You can be in mainland China for that! Western businesses have gone to Singapore or Shanghai.
Folks like you seem to think there is a god given right that HK should be in a certain way forever and ever. Sorry to tell us this, but life doesn't work that way. HK is not special. It is made of Chinese people like any other. It is precisely people like you that makes me disgusted to be associated with you.
with the new shenzen zhongsan bridge operate, this greater bay area will be more vibrant.. if HK not take this opportunity to develop more... they could be left behind..
UK has grab whatever they can before 1997.... including HSBC now HQ in london.... The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation.... nothing UK about that name

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.
@@RR_reunificationRights It is normal that citizens of HK are made fearful, they did not lose economically, they lost following strong political violence, you will sing to me when you too are the subject of political violence, because everything moves quickly in unstable countries like China.
real estate centered biz model ruined HK in certain degree. It is also a huge problem for mainland China to solve. But I think GBA structure includes high-end manufacture, financial center, international trade frontier sounds like a reasonable solution. It will take time definitely.

As a Croatian I do not like the West trying to meddle between the people of mainland China and Honkong, respective Taiwan. Everything will stay chill as long as the US and western Europe do not put their dirty, greedy, racist fingers into Asia.
So wanting a democracy, not a single CCP party in charge which came to power with force regardless of vote in Hong Kong, is racist, dirty and greedy - and only with the communist party in charge is the government genuinely Chinese?
@@dawnnadir they had a lot more autonomy under ‘British rule’ (I lived in Hong Kong briefly as a kid during this period), I’m not sure if you follow world event but there were some massive protests in Hong Kong over the past few years as the Beijing backed administrators made moves to force more CCP influence in Hong Kong. I’m not sure if you’ve ever been to Hong Kong but people from Hong Kong go out of their way to distinguish themselves from the mainland, the speak a different dialect, have different culture, different cuisine and more or less have different mindsets.
@@joshf-w9602 You lived in Hong Kong just briefly and I live in Hong Kong my whole life ar diu lei lo mei! I bet you are a gweilo or non ethnic Cantonese Hong Konger. Mind you Cantonese is a language, not a dialect. Instead, mandarin is fake chinese! You last sentence "More or less have different mindset" is an insult to Cantonese Hong Konger. We are vastly different compared to the mainland Cantonese people and different type/ breed of "Chinese" from red bloody communist china. Taiwanese Chinese, Singapore and Malay Chinese have more resemblance with the people from China then the ones with Hong Kong and Macau. Therefore, don't "Chink us up" as everyone in the world love to do so. I for one would love to see Hong Kong to rejoin with Brirain and Macau rejoin with Portugal. That's the best interest for both countries. As you know the formula ( social, political and cultural settings) of Britain and Portugal governorship work extremely well on Hong Kong and Macau. No point to change it like what it is now. For Hong Kong and Macau to be taken away by communist china is one of the greatest global atrocities the world governments and nations collectively created thanks to the UN.
Hong Kongers used to look down on their mainland counterparts with disdain and feeling of superiority. I love how time changes their fortune. The fact that Hong Kong becomes more and more insignificant to China's economy every year is like divine justice.
As a Hongkonger I do agree with you. We used to think we were superior than mainland Chinese, that was wrong. Now I only wish both of us can grow and improve together.
Nest sized box was fine for many as long as the city was vibrant and full of opportunities for growth and total freedom and rules of law. Now all you got is... None of the above.
I have an amazing life in Vancouver Canada where I gave birth to 3 children from 2 Chinese Canadian born husbands. Elon Musk will be my third husband, he proposed July 1/2023 and promised to free Julian Assange, and he did on his birthday June 28th, we have set the date April 20/2025 at Mar-a-la-Go inviting Xi, Putin, Trump, Modi, and Kim Jun, it is all about business to create employments in building Upperhand Club houses around the world with employees travel around the world to welcome one another.
Why go to Hong Kong when you can go directly to Shenzhen, Shanghai or Beijing. Hong Kong no longer has any advantage if it’s just like another Chinese city.
Because… HK is clean, mainland is filthy with trash everywhere. HK is organized, mainland is a place of chaos. HK is a quiet place, mainland is loud and obnoxious. HK residents are friendly and polite, mainlanders are rude, abrupt and grossly disrespectful. HK has a sense of identity, mainland’s identity is rooted in money - love money above all else. HK is a place of hygiene, mainland is sickeningly unhygienic. HK equals quality and attention to detail and is well maintained, mainland equals exactly the opposite - everything no matter new or old is dirty, under maintained, falls apart… HK has a healthy logic thinking mindset of doing things, mainland has a mindset rooted in believes that carry no scientific evidence. The list really is exhaustive. Well, maybe some prefer the less finer things in life. As for the economic situation, unfortunately due to being taken over by someone who does not respect (ah that word again) their way of life.

What even is "just another Chinese city"? Hong Kong's role stagnated because Chinese exports are no longer cheap, and because China can build its own seaports. It's that simple. The only way to restore Hong Kong's past role is to force China to be poor forever. A sad, unrealistic state of mind to be in.
When I first entered Hong Kong in 2012 it was bustling and noisy, a year ago I went in, all new infrastructures all new developments getting ready for volume but it was just past Covid and I felt sad seeing everything under utilized. I hope to see HK become strong again, the banks need loosening and credit applications speedier. Support development and investment in local companies branching out. Stimulate growth by attracting back the youth, build housing like crazy make the place affordable again

HK is still having the advantages that cities in mainland don't have. but it really needs to get the shxt together cause things have been changed over the past few years. people who don't have faith in HK already left. For those staying, i think whether u are choosing the integration or remain the identity, the mindset needs to be changed for the sake of development.
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.

The downfall of HK going forward is that it's too expensive to live there and the cost of doing business is way more costlier than the most expensive Chinese city. All HK's money making sectors like banking, property development, and so on have been in deep decline. The economic environment is very bleak going forward for Hong Kong.
@@Giles20 As long as the Chinese economy continue to struggle in all fronts: real estate collapse, factories continue to exit China, graduated students can't find job, rich Chinese move their family and money out of China, local government are bankrupt all over China - the dependence of HK in China guarantees the deep dive of its economy in the years to come.
Do not kill animals, do not harm animals, it is strictly forbidden to kill dogs and sell dog meat, do not kill dogs, do not eat dog meat, protect animals, love animals, all things have spirits! Do not give up any opportunity to save lives!! Good deeds will be rewarded!! Evil deeds will be punished!! Do good deeds and accumulate virtues, and blessings will come!!
HK was always the gateway to Mainland China, but now that it's effectively reabsorbed it no longer has that unique selling point.

Hong Kong has the worst service attitude in the world. Even Hong Kong residents prefer not to spend their money in Hong Kong; they would rather go to other cities in the Greater Bay Area, such as Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Zhuhai, and Macau, to spend their money.
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.
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.
Do you really mean that the bridge has very little traffic even after the new measure of allowing HK cars to go up….There are traffic jams in every holiday.

@WilliamHK Has the traffic on the bridge really met its expectation? How much foreign capital has gone into China via HK? The bridge is just a comparison to HK. If people do not want to go to Macau, there would not be traffic. If foreign capital doesn't want to invest in China, HK economy will dwindle, as shown by many metrics now.
@@Hank-im1ek The bridge is looking to the future. The bridge is purposely constrained so HK is not overwhelmed with traffic. Mainlanders can't just drive over it. If you don't know that you don't get anything at all.
The China Greater Bay Area will be the new Silicon Valley of the world. It’s exciting times ahead for China. It will be the best Greater Bay Area of the world and already way ahead of the US and Japan Greater Bay Area. Invest in there now ! Hong Kong businesses need to expand into the GBA to survive.
Hk is in denial. The Chinese government doesn't care as their plans to divert all assets and financial hubs had completed. Hk is just another Chinese city. The big greater bay area is laughable as it's just an excuse to give hope that the Chinese government even cares.

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. Young people want to leave HK to mainland to find opportunities. Retail and f&b struggling with more people going Shenzhen to spend money. I don’t know how GBA benefit HK. I am more concerned with JB hollowing out Singapore. Can CNA do a program?
Western firms can leave. No worries. The Western economies are either in coma or saddled with ultra high debts. Crime, drug and homelessness epidemic with totally dysfunctional governments. 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!
With so many mainland teenagers suffering from the relocation of industry from mainland other Asian countries, HK's young people want to go to UK, Canada and Australia instead.
@@leetan4203 1.2 bn middle class by 2027 was a Brookings report back in 2020, right before the Chinese economy started to tank since the pandemic. Li Keqiang acknowledged there were 600 m Chinese making less than 1000RMB a month. With 1.4 bn ppl, it means 400 m ppl make less than 1000 RMB now need to become the middle class in 3 years. What-about-the-UK can't save the plight of the Chinese people.
I hope the youth of Hong Kong and Overseas Chinese of ASEAN especially Malaysia will be wise to take advantage of the opportunities that GBA may offer them. TOGETHER, they can contribute to the Motherland and also prosper tremendously themselves.
don't understand why comparisons are made with gdp growth when the gdp size and makeup are so different. hk, since opening up of China and hk factories moved to China, has been dependent on financial markets, housing and tourism. it's not recent and changes are difficult to make given resources are very limited to human and knowledge capital
A Filipino domestic helper was diagnosed with leprosy, a serious bacterial infection, shortly after her arrival, causing considerable anxiety for her employer and highlighting potential gaps in the health screening process for foreign workers. 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.

The going ahead for Hong Kong will be tough. But the origin of Hong Kong people is Guangdong, so they will be able to blend in mainland China. Hong Kong will have to reinvent itself. Hong Kong has still a slight advantage up to now when it comes to the world outside China and it masters the English language and systems better than the mainland. Singapore will have similar challenges as Hong Kong. But Hong Kong people has the mainland to expand to contrary to Singapore.
@28:30 what a bleak description of one of the most important events in Hong Kong’s history someone is worried their journalists pass in PRC will get revoked.
Why even the question? Hong Kong will soon replace New York as a financial center catering to countries outside the West, Japan and Australia as anything to do with the US comes with high political risk. Countries are de-risking from the US and the EU.
There was nothing special about Hong Kong other than its British common law and justice system. Without that, there is no reason for anyone to do business there as opposed to any other Chinese city.
With the 1hour transport system, it'll be more appealing to mainlanders to commute to work in hk rather than the other way around. with the living prices in hk the salary whould be also more to sustain the population(At least I'd hope it is). So, with the difference in housing prices between mainland and hk(and i heard the inflation is not that high in other goods) that's the most reasonable thing for me. And if hk cant provide enough oppurtunities to mainlanders and hongkongers both, Well theres no saving them. They need to evolve with time
The Greater Bay Area could be the no.1 Region worldwide for th3 foreseeable future, but it would take some teamwork from all Cities in the Area involved to truly realise their full potential Hopefully HK realises that

I travel to HK often. It is very far from being convenient on the mainland side. There's a crush of people, the queues are ridiculous, mainlanders are savages when it comes to waiting in line, and you have to pass customs. There are some differences between the two societies. HKers know how to wait in a line, respect personal space, don't spit or urinate in the street, and most can speak English. These differences are never more visible than during the commute between the mainland and HK.
The population in greater bay area and HK is dropping since the beginning of COVID (2021), the aging and new demographic is a problem to this country. One of the way to counter the effect is to utilize and speed up the Ai so that the country can keep it's Demographic Dividend advantage
Philippines used to be rich but made poor by Ferdinand Marco and now his son is going to hold back its potential by siding with that crook Biden against China. What a pity for my fellow Catholics!
It's inevitable HK will lose its significance through the assimilation with China. But the report fails to mention the slowing down of China's economy and youth unemployment at its highest yet.
The title is very misleading, with a thinly veiled attempt to smear China. "Regain Its Shine?" This clearly tried to portray a "decline" after the 1997 return to the fold of the motherland. Do remember also that Beijing has to honour its promise of 50 years of autonomy to HK.
China has lots of achievements to proud. But there are also setbacks. In the 90s, HK is the financial centre of East Asia, in its own rank. Now, we also have Singapore, Tokyo, Shanghai, etc. If you just shut down any slightly negative opinion, then you never improve. Luckily, the Chinese know this.
Hong Kong will do just fine. Throughout centuries that place has been through a lot but always survived. Of course you compete with HK. You will be happy when its down. So what if a few hundred thousand leave? More space for the rest in a crowded city. For every.local who leaves three mainlanders want to take their place.
@@hondohavlicek5252 good the hongkongers go to mainland. They integrate the economy. Those who go to UK what the British government will give you? You can be a chef or taxi driver. Living in HK is better with all the struggles. You go to Ang moh country you are still second class citizen
@@Abraham-uk4xy well, it’s a personal choice. There are elite scientists or professionals whose parents were taxi drivers barbers - new immigrants to a new land who struggled to make their next generation better off. Worth sacrificing? Again, personal choice and there is no guarantee for success but there are opportunities.

Let people be in Hong Kong who love Hong Kong and struggle with it through ups and downs.

All the prices in HK, from rent to property prices to food to entertainment etc etc will have to come down and eventually equalise with other major cities in China. I don’t think the standard of living will fall, but the “money out of thin air” from financialisation and speculation (the Anglo-American model) will gradually whither away.

If you can make a post on RUclips with English, then Hong Kong people can also speak passable Mandarin when the need arises, especially the younger generations :)
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.

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. Where to migrate to in Asia that has this old HK economic dynamics and freedom? Well, just follow rich mainlander and HK migrant$$$ to Singapore!

HK flourish from 60's-90's is because the Western wants to do business with Mainland China, so HK plays a role as access point to China. Until China begin to open ports around all the coastal cities then HK is no longer the only access to China. It's not about the Communist party or China hates HK, it's about Western countires have other options to do business with China. Many HK people still having the mind set of they are better than the people in China. This is their wake up call!
The interview with university grads is dissapointing - it should be in English instead. They claimed HK as global city is important but yet still speak in cantonese while reporter speak in English.

Shanghai already has way more foreign business than HK.
I reckon that no matter how hard Hong Kong tries to integrate or stay aloof, neither way would save Hong Kong from failing tbh. Integration could kill Hong Kong (at least the very concept) but the current environment has changed, no longer allowing HK to play wingman. Sadly, the existence of Hong Kong has never been sustainable; it has always been an oddity in history somehow gaining advantages from its neighbour's (not particularly china, SEA countries as well) timely misfortunes. There's very little HK can do to change that given it physical and geopolitical limitation, not like it's their fault but it's reality, just like Detroit never had the capacity to transform since its existence and establishment were conditioned.
@@brianmhyung Interesting. No matter what, it will still remain a highly developed iconic city that attracts millions of visitors from China each year
@@andytinganyang4706
I think that too will change as Chinese cities have become much more developed than HK. Previously, it was a destination as people from the “mainland” wanted to see this marvelously advanced city, and also wanted to shop there. This is no longer the case as its prices are higher and its development cannot compare to the first line cities in China. HK residents themselves now go to Shenzhen at the weekend for shopping and entertainment rather than do this at home. HK also sealed its fate Re Chinese tourism when it began to insult the mainland Chinese, egged on by Apple Daily which labeled the mainlanders “locusts”.
I think the “one country two systems” has also been a tragedy for HK as it has been mired in poor governance due to the ineffectual bureaucrats left over from the colonial era maintaining power and kowtowing to the plutocrats and property developers while China has maintained a hands-off approach, even as their own cities have been much more efficiently and effectively governed.
32:00 "Hong Kong's new draconian national security law."
Draconian? The USA and UK also have national security laws, and they are far more "draconian." Do your research and you will learn the truth.
Basic Law required Hong Kong to enact a national security law decades ago, but Hong Kong's Legislative Council shirked its responsibility. Beijing had no choice but to step in and rectify the matter. This is the only reason that order and peace have been restored to Hong Kong.
hahhah ... USA and UK also have national security laws, really? same as hk? or very different?
Uk 's security law is even stricter than hk. Don't make idiotic comments if you don't know
So what is the difference?

Eventually, HKSAR will become one of the ten most important cities of China. Its future, prosperity, and well-being will depend on how fast it integrates with China's GBA region
Hong Kong was called "The Pearl of the Orient" at one time. But now it is "The Pig of the Orient" The Chinese pronunciations of "pearl" and "pig" are identical. The change is because the taking over of Hong Kong by the Chinese government. It is no longer an international city. It is just one of the many cities of China. It's a shame. I was born there, and I miss the old Hong Kong.

The CPP destroyed Hong Kong. Who wants to live in a place where you can be arrested and thrown in jail on a flimsy context? You can be in mainland China for that! Western businesses have gone to Singapore or Shanghai.

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.
yes,you are right
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.

As a Croatian I do not like the West trying to meddle between the people of mainland China and Honkong, respective Taiwan. Everything will stay chill as long as the US and western Europe do not put their dirty, greedy, racist fingers into Asia.
So wanting a democracy, not a single CCP party in charge which came to power with force regardless of vote in Hong Kong, is racist, dirty and greedy - and only with the communist party in charge is the government genuinely Chinese?
Most Hong Kongers actually long for a return to the old system of full self autonomy with some western culture mixed in as it was pre 1997.

@@dawnnadir they had a lot more autonomy under ‘British rule’ (I lived in Hong Kong briefly as a kid during this period), I’m not sure if you follow world event but there were some massive protests in Hong Kong over the past few years as the Beijing backed administrators made moves to force more CCP influence in Hong Kong. I’m not sure if you’ve ever been to Hong Kong but people from Hong Kong go out of their way to distinguish themselves from the mainland, the speak a different dialect, have different culture, different cuisine and more or less have different mindsets.

We are vastly different compared to the mainland Cantonese people and different type/ breed of "Chinese" from red bloody communist china. Taiwanese Chinese, Singapore and Malay Chinese have more resemblance with the people from China then the ones with Hong Kong and Macau. Therefore, don't "Chink us up" as everyone in the world love to do so. I for one would love to see Hong Kong to rejoin with Brirain and Macau rejoin with Portugal. That's the best interest for both countries. As you know the formula ( social, political and cultural settings) of Britain and Portugal governorship work extremely well on Hong Kong and Macau. No point to change it like what it is now. For Hong Kong and Macau to be taken away by communist china is one of the greatest global atrocities the world governments and nations collectively created thanks to the UN.
Hong Kongers used to look down on their mainland counterparts with disdain and feeling of superiority. I love how time changes their fortune. The fact that Hong Kong becomes more and more insignificant to China's economy every year is like divine justice.

Why go to Hong Kong when you can go directly to Shenzhen, Shanghai or Beijing. Hong Kong no longer has any advantage if it’s just like another Chinese city.
Because… HK is clean, mainland is filthy with trash everywhere. HK is organized, mainland is a place of chaos. HK is a quiet place, mainland is loud and obnoxious. HK residents are friendly and polite, mainlanders are rude, abrupt and grossly disrespectful. HK has a sense of identity, mainland’s identity is rooted in money - love money above all else. HK is a place of hygiene, mainland is sickeningly unhygienic. HK equals quality and attention to detail and is well maintained, mainland equals exactly the opposite - everything no matter new or old is dirty, under maintained, falls apart… HK has a healthy logic thinking mindset of doing things, mainland has a mindset rooted in believes that carry no scientific evidence. The list really is exhaustive. Well, maybe some prefer the less finer things in life. As for the economic situation, unfortunately due to being taken over by someone who does not respect (ah that word again) their way of life.

Stimulate growth by attracting back the youth, build housing like crazy make the place affordable again

HK is still having the advantages that cities in mainland don't have. but it really needs to get the shxt together cause things have been changed over the past few years. people who don't have faith in HK already left. For those staying, i think whether u are choosing the integration or remain the identity, the mindset needs to be changed for the sake of development.
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.

Do not underestimate the resilience and pragmatism of HK people
Really? HK was actually a small fishing village, it became Middle man between inner China and the west after been invaded and captured by UK, it prospered all by meanings of sucking blood of inner China ppl. Hker look down upon fellow Chinese of inner area. Finnally, time to return to its historical position of a normal village. You hker will soon be forgot, failure in competation with other cities in the Bay is doomed.

Hong Kong is just another Chinese city. The downfall of HK going forward is that it's too expensive to live there and the cost of doing business is way more costlier than the most expensive Chinese city. All HK's money making sectors like banking, property development, and so on have been in deep decline. The economic environment is very bleak going forward for Hong Kong.
Xi says he's doing just fine, don't worry
Thats why its very important for HK to integrate with the Greater Bay Area to help it develop and improve.
@@Giles20 As long as the Chinese economy continue to struggle in all fronts: real estate collapse, factories continue to exit China, graduated students can't find job, rich Chinese move their family and money out of China, local government are bankrupt all over China - the dependence of HK in China guarantees the deep dive of its economy in the years to come.

Hk will be the gateway to mainland China, the best place to connect to other parts of China for opportunities and development

I think you need to visit China. That statement was still true 10 years ago.
But that's before China destroyed HK
HK was always the gateway to Mainland China, but now that it's effectively reabsorbed it no longer has that unique selling point.
@@vueport99 HK has never been destroyed stop being hyperbolic. Most of the economic effects in Hong Kong were existent before. If anything people trying to claim Hong Kong independence almost destroyed the city.
I think you are 20 years behind, mainland China don't need a gateway anymore. People can go right in to the mainland without HK.

But you only need a handful of people to be money changers. Not the entire population
Hong Kong has the worst service attitude in the world. Even Hong Kong residents prefer not to spend their money in Hong Kong; they would rather go to other cities in the Greater Bay Area, such as Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Zhuhai, and Macau, to spend their money.
Really great video
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.
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.
Do you really mean that the bridge has very little traffic even after the new measure of allowing HK cars to go up….There are traffic jams in every holiday.
Why don't ask a real Hong Konger?
Singapore is only lucky that she is an independent country but still needs to be aware of CCP's all aspects of intervention and even political subversion.

@WilliamHK Has the traffic on the bridge really met its expectation? How much foreign capital has gone into China via HK? The bridge is just a comparison to HK. If people do not want to go to Macau, there would not be traffic. If foreign capital doesn't want to invest in China, HK economy will dwindle, as shown by many metrics now.
@@Hank-im1ek The bridge is looking to the future. The bridge is purposely constrained so HK is not overwhelmed with traffic. Mainlanders can't just drive over it. If you don't know that you don't get anything at all.

Hk is in denial. The Chinese government doesn't care as their plans to divert all assets and financial hubs had completed. Hk is just another Chinese city. The big greater bay area is laughable as it's just an excuse to give hope that the Chinese government even cares.

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. Young people want to leave HK to mainland to find opportunities. Retail and f&b struggling with more people going Shenzhen to spend money. I don’t know how GBA benefit HK. I am more concerned with JB hollowing out Singapore. Can CNA do a program?
Western firms can leave. No worries. The Western economies are either in coma or saddled with ultra high debts. Crime, drug and homelessness epidemic with totally dysfunctional governments.
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!
With so many mainland teenagers suffering from the relocation of industry from mainland other Asian countries, HK's young people want to go to UK, Canada and Australia instead.
@@leetan4203 China is number 1 my friend !!!!! Trung Quoc so 1 the gioi !!!!!
@@leetan4203 1.2 bn middle class by 2027 was a Brookings report back in 2020, right before the Chinese economy started to tank since the pandemic. Li Keqiang acknowledged there were 600 m Chinese making less than 1000RMB a month. With 1.4 bn ppl, it means 400 m ppl make less than 1000 RMB now need to become the middle class in 3 years. What-about-the-UK can't save the plight of the Chinese people.
What can JB do? Make Malaysia absorb Singapore? Worry not Singapore, Malaysia is not able to absorb you and your sovereignity.

Hello from Bucharest, Romania - a huge underrated city in Europe:)
A Filipino domestic helper was diagnosed with leprosy, a serious bacterial infection, shortly after her arrival, causing considerable anxiety for her employer and highlighting potential gaps in the health screening process for foreign workers.
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.

39:04 wow, such a huge shift... well done to the youth of hong kongers for seeing the truth and benefit of the integration.
The going ahead for Hong Kong will be tough. But the origin of Hong Kong people is Guangdong, so they will be able to blend in mainland China. Hong Kong will have to reinvent itself. Hong Kong has still a slight advantage up to now when it comes to the world outside China and it masters the English language and systems better than the mainland. Singapore will have similar challenges as Hong Kong. But Hong Kong people has the mainland to expand to contrary to Singapore.
@28:30 what a bleak description of one of the most important events in Hong Kong’s history someone is worried their journalists pass in PRC will get revoked.
Why even the question? Hong Kong will soon replace New York as a financial center catering to countries outside the West, Japan and Australia as anything to do with the US comes with high political risk. Countries are de-risking from the US and the EU.
Very interesting documentary
There was nothing special about Hong Kong other than its British common law and justice system. Without that, there is no reason for anyone to do business there as opposed to any other Chinese city.
Common law and justice system have stated to be eroded by the NSL and Article 23.
Thank you for this in-depth report. This is very interesting and enlightening.
The reporters Cantonese is very good.
With the 1hour transport system, it'll be more appealing to mainlanders to commute to work in hk rather than the other way around. with the living prices in hk the salary whould be also more to sustain the population(At least I'd hope it is). So, with the difference in housing prices between mainland and hk(and i heard the inflation is not that high in other goods) that's the most reasonable thing for me. And if hk cant provide enough oppurtunities to mainlanders and hongkongers both, Well theres no saving them. They need to evolve with time
Excellent documentary by Singapore CNA. 😊 🇨🇳🇸🇬
40:34 they have not answered the question, will hk loose its identity, yes or no
Pearl in the Orient? Just look at the HK housing units, they all are like bird cages...PEARL?
It is a capitalism my friend.
The Greater Bay Area could be the no.1 Region worldwide for th3 foreseeable future, but it would take some teamwork from all Cities in the Area involved to truly realise their full potential

The Pearl has already been shattered into pieces.
I travel to HK often. It is very far from being convenient on the mainland side. There's a crush of people, the queues are ridiculous, mainlanders are savages when it comes to waiting in line, and you have to pass customs. There are some differences between the two societies. HKers know how to wait in a line, respect personal space, don't spit or urinate in the street, and most can speak English. These differences are never more visible than during the commute between the mainland and HK.

hi
China has lots of achievements to proud. But there are also setbacks. In the 90s, HK is the financial centre of East Asia, in its own rank. Now, we also have Singapore, Tokyo, Shanghai, etc. If you just shut down any slightly negative opinion, then you never improve. Luckily, the Chinese know this.
Regain means no shine now , zero misleading

If you can make a post on RUclips with English, then Hong Kong people can also speak passable Mandarin when the need arises, especially the younger generations :)
They learn it in school now
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.

people here are talking as if Hong Kong is different from China. They are out of their minds
Hong Kong already game over
what do we think when we compare London to other parts of UK or New York to other parts of US or even Singapore to Malaysia? 😊
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. Where to migrate to in Asia that has this old HK economic dynamics and freedom? Well, just follow rich mainlander and HK migrant$$$ to Singapore!
Housing is the problem young people are leaving to other countries they cannot afford to live in Hong Kong government is not doing enough for housing reform and public housing learn from Singapore.
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 easier 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.
Anyone who understands HK language aka HK Cantonese, can search "城寨 Singjai" @kowloonsingjai , "martin oei" @martinoeiyoutube , "Whirling Clouds Valley" @WhirlingCloudsValley , "謎米 memehongkong" @memehongkong and benefits from the real Hong Kongers' view.
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.
God bless Hong Kong and Hong Kongers!
Manila
Pearl of the Orient Seas, the historical sobriquet for the Philippines. Manila, the capital of the Philippines, historically called the "Perla del Oriente" since 1751.
other places that called Pearl of the Orient Manila Philippines, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Penang, Saigon, Sri Lanka, Goa, Phnom Penh
Manila was until the Japanese completely levelled it in the 1940s.
Hong Kong needs to restore its freedom. It should never have been given to CCP, who has no right to the area what so ever.
The British rule Hong Kong as dictator
Hong Kong people enjoy greater Freedom under China

No worries. The Chinese government can fix that and have it moved to Shenzhen or Shanghai.
@@kito1san Hong Kong only prospered because Guangzhou and Shanghai buiness moved there in the mid 20th century
HK flourish from 60's-90's is because the Western wants to do business with Mainland China, so HK plays a role as access point to China. Until China begin to open ports around all the coastal cities then HK is no longer the only access to China. It's not about the Communist party or China hates HK, it's about Western countires have other options to do business with China. Many HK people still having the mind set of they are better than the people in China. This is their wake up call!
The interview with university grads is dissapointing - it should be in English instead. They claimed HK as global city is important but yet still speak in cantonese while reporter speak in English.
I think it's fine tbh. We can just read the subtitles haha.
It makes me doubt their English competency…
@@yunfeng2205 haha fair enough. The interview was very well balanced. I still enjoyed it.
At least they spoke in Cantonese and not Mandarin.
Hong Kong people need to change their mindset. You are part of China now and work as one. China will help you. You are part of the family.
