HK people better wake up who is their master. Hint, it is not western. The time has long passed
This is just an unnecessary statement. No one in this thread nor in the SAR of Hong Kong for that matter is under any illusion on the internal affairs of HK and China. And for all it is worth I don't think HK would consider itself to have been under any Western master for many years. My original comments are commenting on the lack of clear vision for mapping HK out of the current COVID-19 restrictions. For now these should be considered totally separate matters. HK has good reason to have strong border restrictions to protect its society. The question on hand is how far should these go, and what road map could the government draw up to gradually loosen these to facilitate some movement in the future. I suggest you join another forum if you wish to insinuate political commentary.
i am not trying to talk about politics. But that’s what’s driving. If HK government was to announce that they intend to close the border so that they can be close to the rest of the world, but open to mainland China only, it would not go down well. Just the notion of closer to mainland China turns off quite some people in HK.

it is easier to just slowly seal the border and let the reality sink in.
