Before 1997 and After 1997 HK

a few days ago, I was teaching some of my students using a 20 year old textbook. It was about Hong Kong... (obviously I was excited!). While reading I noticed that the Hong Kongers kept referring to themselves as Chinese. In fact, they say they are proud to be Chinese.

Bruce Lee, during his first interview has constantly mentioned being Chinese and how Kung Fu was an important



Unfortunately, as we fast forward to 20 years later... seriously... how many Hong Kongers would still consider themselves "Chinese"? Over the years, Chinese has already become a derogatory term because Hong Kongers simply don't want to be associated with the barbaric Chinese tourists nor the unethical businesses in China. The Chinese government has broken the promises made to the people of Hong Kong and the British Government giving "Chinese" a terrible image. It is quite sad that most Hong Kongers have decided to neglect their roots in order to not be associated to certain Chinese.

In fact, some times, I make this same mistake... sometimes, I have to emphasize that I'm not "Chinese... Chinese" I'm "Hong Kong Chinese". When I see loud and rude tourists, I am afraid that I will be associated as being part of their group...

It is quite sad how a certain group of people's selfish behaviours can create such a huge impact.

我好亂...

當你對我說你要走... 我非常...好難過...
今日... 竟然比我發現...你可能講大話... 依一刻的心情...好亂.

我唔知道應該點諗...希望你依然在東京... 或者希望...你冇對我說大話...

天父求袮幫助若小的我...
