Abstract | As the debate over national identity intensifies in the run-up to the 1997 handover, there is growing feeling in some quarters that there is such a thing as a "Hong Kongese person." And amid the Sino-British wrangling on how to secure a bright future for the territory, their potential contribution is in danger of going unrecognized. Born under the setting sun of the British empire while maturing during Hong Kong and China's ascent, these "Hong Kongese" are now visible in the professions and government ranks. |
