Hong Kong's status sparks debate over former British colonies

Original: Hong kong isn't a country its owned and ruled by China Singapore is the only exception that thrived right after British

An online claim is arguing that Hong Kong is not a country but a territory owned and ruled by China, while holding up Singapore as the only former British colony that thrived immediately after colonialism ended without an 'implanted population', contrasting it with Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The statement is drawing replies about sovereignty, decolonisation and what counts as a country.

Why now: Debates over Hong Kong's political status and the legacy of British colonialism regularly reignite online arguments.
