Arran, you should have a little read of history of Hong Kong. The British leased it. The lease was up. Pretty simple really. China reoccupied it, sensibly keeping what the British had established. Killing geese that lay golden eggs isn't too bright. No doubt they will strangle it eventually.

Taiwan is quite different.

My real masters? <As a reminder, that was from the Brits, ur real masters! >

Arran are you Yiwu the Mad in drag? I do have ancestors who were born in Great Britain. A mother born in China. My Queen is still Queen Elizabeth II but it has been centuries since the king or queen was the master of New Zealand, let alone Britain, Great Britain and the British Empire.
