On the 25 anniversary of Hong Kong’s handover to China,  China Leader Xi Jinping was supposed to be spending time with all former chief executives during his two-day visit.

However, Tung Chee-hwa, former chief executive and vice-chairman of the Communist rubber stamp legislature, has not appeared in public since July 2021. His disappearance causes speculations on whether his health was the issue.
