More than 40% of expats surveyed by the American Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong say they're considering moving away from the former British colony as China's influence grows and the city continues to enforce stringent quarantine rules.
In a report released on Wednesday, the largest international chamber in Hong Kong found that 42% of respondents are considering or planning on moving out of the city. Fifty-eight percent, however, said they had no plans to leave. The chief concern of those thinking about packing up is discomfort over a controversial national security law enacted by China last year, with 62% of those respondents citing it as a reason to potentially depart.More Related News
