    So Beijing Doxxes US Diplomats in Hong Kong - including releasing the names and pictures of their children. Sounds like a thug move. Or a dick move.
     
  2. That's what they always do when they don't like something. The pro-beijing elements can then pick up the info and go to 'work'. Afterall, there is no law in china whilst they always claim 'according to the law' in their speeches

    Imagine the US leaking the same info on the officials in China, like whose sons and daughters are studying abroad in the UK or US, with address and photos. That would mean war.
     
  4. the only people that don't dislike mainland china are the mainland chinese, until the moment they get a chance to immigrate away

  5. there is law in China but the law is for the deplorable, and even the constitution is not respected at all in the country.

    Actually it is not that simple, many Chinese who Have migrated seem to remain fond of the Mainland, some move back to the Mainland happily and some despite not being very keen on Beijing's governing still keep a strong bias towards most things Chinese - including mainland doctors despite their documented abysmal performance. There appears to be several tiers of hospitals even in China tier1 cities, the top hospitals suck (in my and most other people I talked with experience) compared to Hong Kong and western hospitals,and in smaller hospitals, even in rich neighbourhoods, one could think janitors were upgraded to specialist doctors due to lack of staff.
    And if you move to Chinese medicine, which has a strong presence in those tier 2 hospitals, you better believe strongly that infusions fight infections effectively.
    I know 2 people who needed ambulance services btw, and they both died that day, used to live in wealthy and densely populated area in Shenzhen, and hardly ever saw ambulances, better not be in a hurry when in need of emergency treatment there, although to be fair, if you managed to find a relative or friend to bring you to the emergency services, the queues there had nothing to be ashamed of compared to what I ve witnessed in Paris( the care sure does pale in comparison)

    It is hard to criticize your Government when you still run your business or have a job back there while your kids and spouse live in the US.

    Very true, but you shouldn t discount attachment from Chinese to the mainland, it s not like they were given much chance to exercise free will and judgement on their country while they grew up, some of this education must stick.
