HONG KONG1993-1997 |
I visited this city four times before moving here in September 1998 and got a little more addicted each time. The first time was on a visa trip from Japan in 1992, then once on the way into and out of China in 1993. This was also the last stop on my journey - from there I flew back to San Francisco after two years in Asia.
During my March 1997 trip I found that most people were not as worried about the July return of Hong Kong to China as was portrayed in the American press. Many realized that civil rights might be reduced and economic upsets would occur, but seemed hopeful that Hong Kong would remain a special place in the Middle Kingdom. As it turned out the changes after the handover have been subtle and slow. To view pictures from my recent life in Hong Kong click here. |
