How long has it been since Hong Kong was turned back over to the control of Mainland China? About 15 years? I really thought the sorry Communists would've totally laid down the hammer several years ago, but they exercised more patience and restraint than I would've imagined.
The settlement that preceded the handover said that the PRC could not impose communism or change the capitalist system for 50 years after the handover. This is also part of Hong Kong Law.
It would be incredibly disappointing to see Hong Kong go down the crapper this quickly after the handover. The UK would be the only ones that could make a fuss about this I guess, and even they can't really do anything.

Think Barry will be so open of support for an "Asian" spring (or fall)?
