       Can it become independent like Taiwan and Korea, or is it
       destined to be fully annexed by the present day USSR like
       Crimea?

       But HK (and Singapore) were the model for China's economic
       development. Can it lead the way again and reinvent itself?

       It's difficult to predict how things will turn out. I really
       enjoyed my visit there earlier this year, my first got nearly a
       decade. It's easy to blame the brits for having instilled
       western ideologies on the people there, but had it never been
       colonised it would probably be little more than a few villages
       now, as would Shenzhen.
