Everytime I read this kind of comment between Chinese people. It just make me sad. If we have to be a strong nation - please stop killing each other first. Otherwise all the foreigner look at us like we are bunch of monkeys - and in fact the rest of the world are.

Just chip in what I know - Cantonese is in fact an ancient language, it was spoken by the barberian in the south (it was consider Chinese at that time).

@humanequality.

but HK can sign free trade agreements with China, Netherlands, France, and Malaysia... Just recently, HK-Indonesia signed a Free trade agreement. Cities can't do that... SARs can do that.

@tltl0000.

but Hong Kong, China sends it's own delegation to the G-20, Summer/Winter Olympics, APEC, WTO, etc..

@Daucuscarotathemovie, Yeah I agree if we can stop the in-fighting among the many ehtnic groups within China we wouldn't have problems. Of course an fully united China would be a HUGE threat to other nations...

@Felton321, if you don't know who the "boat people" are then u haven't been to China. They are the last pioneers, because they don't have to pay shit for taxes to the governement nor do they have an "fixed address" The pigs(cops) would call these people "N.F.A." which stands for "NO FIXED ADDRESS" because they live on their boats! Government doesn't like that they want to know where the fuck you are at any given moment.
