China is definitely going to be segregated. Based on the SCMP article, it appears that they are trying to figure out a way to add Australia and Singapore to the mix. From an industrial engineering perspective, this is a daunting task unless the solution entails mixing those three groups of passengers. I'm just happy that they are finally making a serious attempt to pull this off. I would love to be able to go to Thailand, but Hong Kong is an excellent consolation prize.
