Reviews

[Sarah Klein · Rating 2 out of 5]

A journalist’s review of 2000 in Hong Kong examines the changes in Hong Kong since the 1997 turnover. Deals with a lot of the social issues stemming from economic and political integration with China; the rise of pro-China groups in the wake of The British pullout. Not a memorable read.
