- A documentary covering the final year of the countdown period to the Hong-Kong hand-over. These films watch events unfold through the eyes of local people. They represent the different communities and the different social strata of Hong Kong - from street people to tycoons, from expatriates to the new Chinese administrators. In so doing we make this a personalised story instead of a political one. By getting to know these we understand the impact of the transition on a human scale. -

Winter 2020. Oh dear, how things have changed. God have mercy on Hong Kongers.
The China National Security Law Hong Kong version which is one and the same.
yeah it's unfortunate and now Singapore is going to overtake HK
Thank you for sharing this documentary.
This docuemtary fully anger China.
Am i the only one hearing sound break offs
No, you’re not the only one
@@kathryngabrielli506 clearly primitive censorship.
CZcams censorship all the way…. Oops forgot that CZcams has been clear about their intentions 💰💰💰
Sound breaks off on about 4 instances and in each time 1 to 3mins.
Surprising how much is uncensored.
look at HK now I sympathize with the people there.
Better off now. To exist under foreign occupation without fighting is shameful.
@@jake8855 To exist under foreign democray is far better than under brutal dictatorship from another colonial power.
@canman5060 I totally disagree. Also, HK was not democratic under british rule. The queen appointed patton, he wasn't elected by hong kongers.
@@jake8855 To exist under home ruling with endless fighting and resistance from vast majority is indeed very shameful.
@@canman5060 Endless fighting and resistance from the majority? Sounds kind of like US "democracy." Hahaha. Don't worry, there's not endless fighting in HK; the beta men who opposed home rule have been rightfully suppressed, and peace and unity now exist there.
All of our fears about Hong Kong being taken by China came true, I just didn't think it would have happened this quickly. I joined the Royal Hong Kong Police in 1994 and served up until the handover, we were pre warned what was about to happen and what would happen especially within the police force. I was forced to flee Hong Kong in late 2019 after being arrested for unlawful assembly and I haven't been back ever since. Its heartbreaking to see what has now happened in Hong Kong only 25 years after the handover I would like to think that there is still hope for Hong Kong, my home and I pray I can return one day, but I think its already crossed the line of no return. ❤️🩹
This breaks my heart. Great respect to you.
In the 1980s, Liberation Army members have already started to infiltrate HK’s police. Why did you still join it in 1994?
I feel for you… but communist are animals. 50 years of 2 systems one country was never going to happen sadly..
@@altt-check1-2 " 50 years of 2 systems one country”....
不知道十年前有多少香港人真的相信這一點......雖然當時大多數香港人都是來自大陸的難民。
Sound kept stopping.
Hong Kong founded more than 100 years and indeed it take less than 3 years to taken down our hardly developed freedom and the CCP controlled gov declare the 2019 pro-democracy movement as a revolution and totally ignored their allowance of police brutality , turning the rule of law into rule by law.
As a HongKonger and also a libertarian will never forget and forgive what happened, this is part of our History which we wrote in pain, regret and anger.
A China-born in Gingle, Guilin, Guangxi province in 1944 where my medical father from Hong Kong University (HKU) was assisting the Chinese Red Cross during the War. My father sent me to 3 schools in HK from 1956-65 with the Chairman of Hang Seng Bank as my guarantor. My father changed my citizenship to Thai in 1965 (due to so much problems with a Taiwanese Passport) before going to college in America.
I have learned the History of HK since the 2 Opium Wars when the weak Chinese government had to allow the British Empire to annex HK to be its Opium Trading post.
I TOOK MY LATE MOTHER TO HK TO WITNESS THE ' HANDOVER ' IN 1997! from my home in ' The City of Angels, Bangkok '
If the British is trying to intimidate China today, they would face a much & much stronger CHINA ???
The British should have taken a lot more land and been a lot more vigorous in persuading the Cantonese to declare independence.
Is that Pete Seeger at the beginning?
What’s wrong with the audio?
From one colonial rule to another. Hong Kong has already developed her own identity after 1967.
Let us guess who is behind this chaos?
Is HK’s democracy as ridiculous as N Korea’s democracy? 香港的民主和北韓的民主一樣可笑嗎？
Pipes and drums the black watch regimental bands of the scots guards Royal Marines royal regiment of Scotland 💂🏴
Is this a profecy?
I find the countdown breathing hilarious
Countdown to hell and it is already a reality.
光復香港，時代革命！
港英的遗老遗少们终于找到家了呗 过了1/4世纪再看，感觉视频里面的内容好笑，真会编辑
现在香港民主吗？
@@jasonyeung7383你看他 无语了 不知道说啥了
就呵呵的习爸爸的中国住一辈子得了
I left before the British left.
Your name sounds Italian
@@caseclosed9342 There are already Italians in Hong Kong during the 19th century.
@@canman5060no
people just do not learnt what China is.
People do not really know what CCP China is.
so what is the real China?
Hong Kong is not Hong Kong forever
sure, because Hong Kong people have proven they don't deserve the freedom given to them
