From the Sino-U.S. trade war to the anti-extradition bill amendment protests, Hong Kong has been rocked by external and internal pressures in recent months. At a roundtable luncheon on 5 September, renowned political commentator Johnny Lau Yui-siu shared some figures on the impact of the trade war on Hong Kong’s economy, and also analysed the complex relationship among Hong Kong, Beijing and the United States. Lau stressed that Hong Kong is now entering into a very difficult economic situation and said that he expected the protests to continue for some time.
