Watching Hong Kong Through China's Eyes

The monitoring of events in Hong Kong continues, if not exceeds, the pace and urgency of the watch prior to the historic change of status on July 1, 1997. How will “one country, two systems” work? Is “a high degree of autonomy” real in fact and in name? What indications have the first three months of “fifty years of no change” shown by way of stability and change? Please join us for a report by Linda Po-yin Chong, who witnessed the change-over of sovereignty in Hong Kong as a correspondent for United Press International.
