Hong Kong is not yours why do you care. China is way more stronger than your country interms of economy, military, technology and pretty much everything. If US stop supporting UK it will be doomed.
Although I was born in 2000, I could also feel how those people in 1997 handover ceremony touched because they are going to loss the beautiful days after 1997.
I am from 2007, I actually feel sadder like look at teh state of shit, police don’t want to hurt em but ist hrt or be hurt , protestors don’t want to hurt cops but same thing, and then protesters to extremists, police to militia
@Anglo Commando sad reality is we had to. we had a lease of 99 years for Hong Kong, and if we didnt hand over HK, how would that look on us? a country of liars?
to watch this and remember what happened in 2019 brings a man to his knees. The same helpless feeling of a father watching his son/daughter be beaten brutally and mercilessly with our hands tied behind our back. We are sorry to let you go so early...
Sorry HongKong,An apology from China sincerely,honestly and Heavily. I've never been to Hongkong yet I won't be there for the rest of my lifetime either,in promise.Just in Order to make the imgine of such a georgous OLD-GOOD-DAYS in me for ever.
+Diligent One-Six Hong Kong was actually founded under British rule, and as such the territory you refer to is rightfully British. As agreed by the terms of the Treaty of Nanking and the First Convention of Peking, Hong Kong and Kowloon were to remain British in perpetuity, only the New Territories was leased for 99 years after the Second Convention of Peking. China has already violated the terms of the Sino-British Joint Declaration of 1984 and has therefore proven it is unfit to exercise sovereignty over the territory.
I saw many comments saying Hong Kong is occupied by China which is no true, because the Brtish had occupied Hong Kong not China, Hong kong had been part of China since day 1, plus Hong Kong people are Chinese ethnicity, speak Chinese, Chinese names and have Chinese culture, not English or Scottish
Chiayang Kao doesn’t change the fact that they’re now ruled by commies and that they would certainly prefer to have the freedom they had don’t ya think
sh4nkly hong kong is free. Under the 1 country two systems. Hong Kong should be and is part of China, just like California to the USA and Scotland to the UK
@@kiayungko7731 You must be joking or simply turn a blind eye to what is happening. It's not personal, mate. Just the fact. The Chinese regime simply fails miserably in governing an international city of Hong Kong. 20 years later, they violate the spirit of '1country2systems' by announcing the Security Law introducing the Chinese style of authoritarian rule to Hong Kong, admitting their incompetence in showing respect to the Hong Kong way of life. The Chinese fails Miserably.

The day which should not came to Hong Kong. Wishing from S.Korea that democracy will eventually come back to Hong Kong
(Foreign and economic worlds)
after this 25 years Hong Kong is really a democratic country governing by the Hong Konger and not foreigners
Hong Kong’s Governor was appointed by the British and was always whiter than white.
@@peterjiau3612 HongKong is now a slave of Xi the Pooh
so when will they return
stop your day dreams and the British will never and ever return to Hong Kong cos it is the land of Chinese and not the british
Can someone find a version without the annoying news anchor talking this police band was great
Beginning of the end
Of the British
There is a belief in mythology that rain only falls on event upon which the Gods do not approve - I think we can safely assume their views on this day
If I‘m not mistaken, it also rained on the day of Queen Elizabeth‘s II death. They surely disapproved of that too.
The governor car circle the drive way 3 times is the Chinese tradition mean one will return. Is that mean the British will be back in 2029?
Perhaps - if HK ever gets independence from China, I think the first thing they will do is to apply for membership to the Commonwealth
no and ever the British will return to Hong Kong cos they know Hong Kong belong to China and not England

@@peterjiau3612 Hong Kong existed before the current Chinese regime, Hong Kong 'belongs' to China only after 1997.

One will return…
