      Which, surely, explains why tourism in the rest of the Bay Area is shooting up?

          yet the mainland china government had ordered that it be the only cuisine on offer. Lots of restauranteurs have been disappeared for offering anything different.

          Good lord, Western propaganda is always so transparently baseless, yet they lap it up anyway.

      While there is a political component to it, the real issue is that the HKD is too strong now and the cost of touristing in HK is very visible.

            True. The US massacred tens of thousands in Afghanistan only to replace the Taliban with the Taliban, and it looks like it is preparing to do the same in Yemen.

            It is awful and unforgivable. But the US is weakening itself with every decades-long and losing invasion it starts.

              They already helped massacre tens of thousands in Yemen, as well as Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Somalia, and so on. The USA is getting weaker, but as it does, the thirst for Chinese blood being displayed but the liberals swarming this thread will only get stronger.
