Economic invasion

Economically control Hong Kong by skewing the economy to narrowly depend on China-related business, "red capital" buying up companies, monopolising industries etc.

Methods

 * Use government policies to give advantage to Chinese companies
 * "Red capital" buying up companies in Hong Kong

Effects

 * Economic dependence on China:


 * Corruption of civilization: HK is far closer to the civilized world in relation to business, from the honouring of contracts to the common acceptance that bribery is wrong. China however has no moral values and everything is about money. For example bribery is corruption is perceived as perfectly acceptable. The close economic interaction between China and HK has inevitably brought these bad habits across the border and contaminated the otherwise much more civilized HK business culture. (The same in fact also happens to any country that has business to do with China.)
