I lived in Hong Kong from 1981 to 1991. * Overflowing with optimism and "can do"
* Equal protection under the law no matter the origin
* Max tax 15% for all
* Education and health benefits for all (accepting always flaws somewhere)
* Anti-corruption was effective (ICAC)
* Straightforward process to become a voting legal immigrant for non-Chinese
* Many people speaking English, various Chinese dialects, Tagalog and more
* Springboard to helping adjacent countries modernize
* Unparalleled Eastern and Western food and housing and sociability I moved to San Francisco only because I was a techie and had a need to change the world. If there had been the Internet, I might still be there... |
