Arriving in Hong Kong
Arriving into Hong Kong was a strange experience. The Special Administrative Region of China is both part of China and a very different country. Shu, my other team member and a Chinese national, had to apply for a special permit to enter whereas I, a British national, just needed my passport. A point that angered Shu considerably. “It’s like you having to apply for a permit to visit Manchester and yet people from other countries can enter without a problem” she tells me.Crossing this small river is a simple and well organised experience as you pass from one world into another. A short walk but a very different atmosphere on the other side of the bank.
