		<description><![CDATA[&quot;And we are all Chinese!&quot;

Ever since 1997, you are all the same.. er.. Nationality.. Sort of? 

Racially you may as well lump the Japanese and Koreans in the same lot (and last I checked, those two hate each other). Does race have anything to do with what defines a culture? F-NO! WIthin China&#039;s borders are groups of people that disagree, believe totally different things and live completely different lifestyles. In other words, you basically have NOTHING in common.

Ironically the only thing HK has in common with Mainland China is...... Cantonese! 
They use Traditional Chinese Characters and have a legitimate British Legal system (redundant I know).

By the way, &#039;Tolerance&#039; is a nice thing to &#039;take pride&#039; in, when you live in an utter shithole. Keep patting yourself on the back, rather than trying to fix things.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The whole “anchor baby” issue is just another flashpoint between Hong Kong and the Mainland. Despite their howling outrage, Mainlanders are flooding to the SAR’s hospitals to give birth so that their progeny can obtain the Right to Abode. 

Despite some of the new regulations designed to slow the influx—minimum bank balances ($40,000HKD, I think), no walk-ins at hospitals—the problem keeps growing and growing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Both are offended: 

Mainlanders are offended at the depiction of the hot pot-slurping woman as an uncouth dirt dumpling—they’re demanding an apology from the television station—while Hong Kongers are asserting that it’s all true and that the station needn’t apologize and are offended that the issue is even up for debate in the first place.]]></description>
