Hong Kong is NOT a libertarian success story

We are talking China when we talk Hong Kong. Hong Kong is part of China, they use Chinese passorts. Thus emigration form Hong Kong is not tracked separatly.

Oh, you had freinds from HK visit you, so that obviously refutes my cite that

China
It is illegal for a citizen of China to emigrate without getting permission from the Chinese government.

Did they emigrate? Did they have permission?

It is true that holders of that special version of the Chinese passport are allowed visa-free entry to several nations, *for a visit. *

Note that a lot of dudes from China and VietNam want to migrate to Hong Kong, so I didn’t say it was so bad people are leaving en masse.
