只有3.1％香港年輕人認同自己是「中國人」

thanks for your reply

Hello, Jack. I didn't notice your comment until today. I would say that Hong Kong people WERE more prone to consider themselves Chinese. Judging by those films made in Hong Kong before 1997, it's not difficult to come to this conclusion. Since that generation consists of too many refugees from China. Jackie Chan and Stephan Chow are native Hong Kong people, but they are sons of Chinese.

But this new generation is composed of sons and daughters of people like Jackie Chan and Stephan Chow. Born and raised in Hong Kong, and alienated from China except their chinese grandparents and seeing what China becomes now, they have the necessity to determine their own future.

Thanks for your comment.

I am looking forward to more people from Hong Kong coming to the issue to express their opinions about the future of Hong-Kong. With their participation, we may know more about their thoughts no matter how old or how young they are. 

It seems to me that Hongkong is degenerating into a puppet of the mainland government now, though they gave the promise that HK people administering HK before. Those incidents happened in recent years make me understand that why they have more and more aversion to the mainland government.

Actually I find that in comparison with a portion of the Taiwan people, who settled in Taiwan in ancient times and consider themselves as foreigners, the Hongkong people are more prone to identify them as Chinese, because most of them immigrated to Hongkong since late Qing dynasty so they care more about the fate of China. Besides, there were also many films and TV dramas made in Hongkong before 1997, which depicted stories happened in the mainland, showed the sympathy with the Chinese people and sometimes even promoted the idea of Chinese nationalism. So if someone says that HK people don't love China and want to be independent, it's unfair, it has so many things to do with the recent politics.
