Katoom Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 July 1st 1997. British rule ceases in Hong Kong after 150 year lease of the Kowloon peninsular expires. We could have kept Hong Kong Island though as it had been ceaded in perpetuity, if a little impractical... Anyway, we use the day to protest against our Government and for the promotion of universal sufferage ; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
