The chapter examines how the National Security Law has prompted many Hong Kong residents, including artists, to relocate to countries like the UK, Australia, Taiwan, and Canada. It reflects on the reshaping of Hong Kong's identity by Beijing's actions since the handover to China, leading to long-term consequences and altering the city's trajectory.
Four years after Beijing imposed a national security law on the city, Hong Kong continues to serve as an important financial hub connecting mainland China with the rest of the world. But beneath the surface, the consequences of the crackdown are far-reaching.
Today on the Big Take Asia, ahead of the 27th anniversary of Hong Kong’s handover to China, host K. Oanh Ha speaks with Bloomberg’s China editor Alan Wong about how Beijing is reshaping Hong Kong, its impact on the city’s residents and what that means for Hong Kong’s future.
