| Abstract | A national flag is fluttering in the warm south China breeze in front of an eight-storey white building that serves as the headquarters of the People's Liberation Army. The flagpole is exactly 19.9771 metres tall - symbolizing July 1, 1997, the day set for the five-star Chinese flag to rise over Hong Kong, and for the Union Jack to come down. |
