Commumism in HongKong
Why would a communist country want to have a capitalist country? Well I think it is because Hong Kong has a lot of money, because they are one of the major trade centers of the world. Another reason is that Hong Kong was a part of China until 1842 when the British defeated China in the first Opium War and took possession of Hong Kong. In this report I will be talking about how the Communist Chinese government regained possession of Hong Kong, a capitalist Colony, after 156 years of British rule. I also will be talking about the history and living conditions of the people of Hong Kong. I will be discussing the Hong Kong government before and after the take over. Another point that I will be talking about is how the economy was impacted by the takeover. I will be discussing the religions of Hong Kong and the affect the takeover will have on them. Another thing that I will be talking about is how the balance of power in the world will be effected, what overall effect might be, and what global changes may occur. Hong Kong was originally part of China, but was taken and colonized by the British in the first Opium War in 1842. Later, in 1856-1860, the British won the Kowloon peninsula
Fortunately for the people of Hong Kong, the British made the Chinese government sign that treaty in 1984, so the people Hong Kong will have their freedoms for the next fifty years. I would have to say that the only thing that's really happened is the transferring of the land from Great Britain to China. So overall I would say that Hong Kong has a pretty good economy, with good living conditions. But Hong Kong also has some problems with police corruption, heavy crime, drug problems such as heroin addiction, and gangs. Before the take over of Hong Kong, it was like a big party. The celebrations mainly occurring for the tourist that came to this island. But I think the real question is who would be better for the sake of the people of Hong Kong, for the sake of the world and one of the biggest trading centers in it. The citizens have their freedoms for now, so they can own property and their businesses and stores. So once again I ask why would a communist country want to have a capitalist country? Well, I think it is because Hong Kong has a lot of money, because they are one of the major trade centers of the world. For the long-term visitors and citizens of Hong Kong trains, sub ways and buses are the best way to get around. The world will eventually be affected by changes in Hong Kong, but that has not yet happened because Hong Kong isn't totally a part of China yet, because of the joint Declaration the British had the Chinese government sign. But they were taken over by China, a Communist Government. The stores in Hong Kong have very good bargains, since it is one of the major trading centers of the world. Since Hong Kong is a major trading center of the world. They had China sign a joint Declaration, which stated that Hong Kong would have the same basic laws and freedoms for at least 50 years, which would be 2047.
