        Huang Qifan (the previous mayor of Chongqing city in China) said that even cities like Shanghai CAN’T replace Hong Kong as a financial center. Each year, Hong Kong attracts 54% of the foreign investments that go into China.http://www.ejinsight.com/20190923-ex-chinese-official-reaffirms-hong-kongs-irreplaceable-role/ …

        For decades, Shanghai claimed they’re going to replace Hong Kong as the international financial center... time really does fly. They should realised that without genuine legislative system, none of a Chinese city could replace Hong Kong

        Protests in HK have no impact to China’s stability, as suggested in this article. Unemployment and high inflation do!

        I've been saying the same all along. Good to know others foresee the same. It's common sense.
