What is the future of Hong Kong going to be? Hopeful? Bleak?

[Freely]

HK's future is unknown. Though CCP claims the sovereignty of HK, it does not dare to be seen in the world as being cruel and ruthless to Hongkongers as it so used to in abusing/torturing Tibetans, Xinjiangers and any non-CCP-connected Mainlanders. Thanks to HK and Hongkongers' worldwide strengths and successes built up upon since the British era. REAL HK People all feel grateful at what the Brits done to the City, similar to Taiwanese feeling grateful towards Japanese great contribution in Taiwan during the latter's occupation.

Hence Hongkongers and the rest of the world must voice out loud and clear to tell this mafia regime to cut it out on any stupid thing it tries to lay its dirty fingers on the city, ie HK's 2017 universal suffrage and criteria in selecting the 2017 Chief Executive candidates. An inhuman, freedom-less, rule-less, law-less, uncivilized, barbaric dictatorship such as the CCP must and should shut up on all matters concerning HK's universal suffrage. What does a freedom-less dictator know anything about democracy and universal suffrage?

It's true CCP is now the richest government on earth, on the contrary Mainland Chinese is still one of the poorest people and has the most number of poverty on earth. This explains why so many dirt poor and unskilled Mainlanders willing to pay a bribe to CCP guys up north in order to immigrate to HK yearly, estimated at 60,000 per year, at the sole discretion of the corrupted CCP guys, pathetic.

HK People must get back Mainland immigrants approval rights from the CCP immediately or else HK Taxpayers' hard earned tax money will be wasted on these uselss CCP-locusts immigrants which are now all over the city and shamelessly feeding on HK Taxpayers welfare without contributing a single penny. Both CCP and CCP-locusts are disgusting.

EDIT

@ Thanks for Phoenix' CCP myths.

The crappy food + water Hong Kong currently BUYING from CCP-China is NOT cheap, with those $$ spending, HK easily could import non polluted/toxic food & mineral water from France, New Zealand, so forth. Don't spit bull please.

HK's been built up by the brilliant Brits as Asia's important trading/tourist/financial/transportation hub since 1960s and have been successfully kept that way ever since all because of HK's good, strategic location, efficient and good government/judicial/social systems left behind by the Brits.

Without the greedy and ruthless interferrances and colonization of CCP and its corrupted, dirt poor locusts, HK could possibly be better than Singapore of today. The fact that Singapore given a free choice to ally with the US and EU and not with CCP-China tells it all despite 70% Singaporeans are of Chinese ethnics and the Father of Singapore, Mr Lee Kuen Yew is originally from Fukien Province.

For Singapore to keep a distant away from CCP, one should realize how disgusting this regime is even in the eyes of Asian Chinese ethnics.

@ flingebunt

You've been listening too many bull from the CCP as well, quote from your misunderstandings,

"...Over time the mainland of China has taken over many important functions..."

Go talk to any foreigners who have lived in both Hong Kong and China inclu in Shanghai, Beijing so forth and see which place they much prefer? Hong Kong for sure and why? Rule of law, uncorrupted, transparent government and policies, no censorship on news, freedom to expressions/protests, etc etc which are so vital for the day-to-day business operations esp a financial market. Without any of these criteria present, Shanghai can never dream to be a close financial market, at best Shanghai can only continue serving its corrupted CCP firms and guys up north. HK does not need them anyway.
