Check my comments in my channel for information about the Pre-January 8th version of Inception.

I think the History Museum should contact you to preserve your films on Hong Kong.

So precious!!

[MichaelRogge]

@daiwaiu They did and have my films for years and are showing them often.

[Onbehaard]

Nou, je reis toen was meer dan 20 jaar geleden,. Lantau Island is nu heel veel veranderd. Voor de beter of niet... misschien wel. Het is zeker veel makkelijker met de cable car om daar naartoe te gaan dan in 1989 !

Dank U wel. Het is erg interesant.

God Bless you Michael, what a KIND and GENEROUS Man you are!

Thanks so much for posting these fabolous videos. I've been in HK for thr first time two years ago and returned thi year for my birthday. I've fallen in love with this city, so modern and efficient and, at the same time, so traditional. A city with a heart.. And the chance to see how it was 20 and 40 years ago mekes me feel even more in love with HK..

I like the series very much particuar the NT in the old time e.g. Lantau /Tai O. I wonder if you have more about the North Eastern side of the the NT ? and more about the resettlement housing scene.

[MichaelRogge]

@shukhang I do not think that I explored the N.E. side of the N.T. I have shots of agriculture in the N.T. As to the resetllement housing scheme I have shots in my HK refugees clip and also scattered over all N.T. clips. I do not remember myself in which clips they have all gone to.

[MichaelRogge]

Since my last visit settlements of foreign residents have risen on Lantau island, for instance in Silvermine Bay. Via Google you may get glimpses of these yacht harbours.

@MichaelRogge watch?v=kQvkz_yKtE0

this is another great video about how HK has changed!

[garlun]

i was in Tai O dec 2009 and it has changed much. The only thing i can see is that there is a bridge now. No lady on a boat to take you to the otherside.

Thank you for posting these fantastic videos, sir. I was born in HK in 1978 and left in 1997. I miss it so.

I am wondering if you can tell me what the girl is doing at 0:41.

[MichaelRogge]

The girl is stamping powder in empty cartridges bundled to make a big and noisy firework display.

[luisHK2001]

Thanks Again Michael!!!!. I love your sensibility with the places, people, sounds....... of HK. I Iove HK....

[mbrooks1976]

Its so great that you have all these clips from Hong Kong and you have kept them for 50 years. I now live in Hong Kong and am always intererested in how places used to look and your clips are the best on the net. Thank you so much.

Michael Rogge,

Thank you very much for your precious video clip being uploaded to youtube. This is extremely valuable to the younger generation of HK people. I myself grew up in HK and been studied aboard and worked in New York. Hong Kong has such a unique and rich mix culture which helps me a lot when I live outside HK.

Please come back to Hong Kong and take another look at HK in 2009 after this 1989 clip. Whether it is good or bad, we want to look at HK thru your eyes!

Thanks!

[michaelcnsoo]

I'd totally agree with "kowloonbaby08". I leave

Hongkong in 1988 and visit in 2006; very disappointed.

[kowloonbaby08]

you better not back to HK again, or you will probably disappointed -____-"

[meitaibb]

[leefaichai]

[eddielung31]

"家下做老細好很麻煩"，LOL

for all those non-native, its means "it is so fxcking troublesome to be a boss these days", haha

[dutchray]

Being born in the UK, and raised in Holland, when I emigrated to HKG in '96 I felt like coming home.

[ac6261]

that place is ever changing, even as a hk native living in canada, i feel like a foreigner every time i go back...
