Today, Hong Kong is a highly prosperous international metropolis. Together with New York and London, it is known as the “Port of Nurem”. It is the third-largest financial center in the world and is known as the “Pearl of the East”.

However, Hong Kong has a history of being occupied for more than 100 years.

On January 26, 1841, during the First Opium War, the British captured Hong Kong Island, and gradually encroached on Hong Kong.

Hong Kong was ceded to the United Kingdom under the “Nanjing Treaty”, “China-British Treaty of Beijing” and “Special Provisions on the Extension of Hong Kong’s Sites”.

August 29, 1842

With the signing of the “Nanjing Treaty”, China ceded Hong Kong Island.

October 24, 1860

With the signing of the “China-British Treaty on Beijing”, China ceded the “Kowloon Division Local No.1 Area” to Britain, that is, the area south of Boundary Street, Kowloon Peninsula.

June 9, 1898

Signed the “Zhantuo Hongkong Boundary Rule”, China will lease the rest of the Kowloon Peninsula outside Tsim Sha Tsui in 1860 by the British, that is, the northern part of Kowloon Peninsula Boundary Street and the 262 islands attached to it. During the lease period, the leased land is under British jurisdiction.

Ever since that, Hong Kong was fallen into the hands of great powers and was not taken back by China until July 1, 1997.

According to several Hong Kong media reports, the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Linzheng, held a press conference at the government headquarters in the afternoon of February 5.

She said that isolation measures need to be taken for 14 days.

Linzheng also expressed the hope that the measures will take effect in the early morning of February 8, so that citizens can arrange for their return to Hong Kong in the next two days.
