The Chinese regime shouldn’t see the people of Hong Kong as bitter foes, says a local financier, because they are only asking for what has been promised to them.
Hedge fund manager Edward Chin believes that most Hongkongers are happy to stay a part of the mainland under former Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping’s “one country, two systems” model and the Basic Law, Hong Kong’s mini-constitution.
That’s what the “10 requests” made by a group of pro-democracy Hong Kong finance professionals to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) really are about.
It's important for Beijing to know that our requests are not something out of the ordinary
