The Hong Kong government continues to drop hints about what's going happen at midnight on June 30, 2047. * * *I notice the "U WISH" number plate is on a red sports car (a Ferrari often seen in Central) these days. I guess sports cars come and go, but this stunningly smug number plate is worth hanging on to. Instead of paying the fine, I hereby declare that I am seeking asylum at the US Consulate General in Hong Kong. One can't just mess up in Hong Kong and then ask Western politicians to take you in and make you famous.
