Most of the Zhejiang natives in Hong Kong moved here when China's political situation changed in 1949, and they have contributed considerably to the prosperity of Hong Kong. thirty years ago, they fled to Hong Kong from China for fear of communist rule, so it must have not been an easy task for Beijing to persuade them to stay.

This will not be easy and anyone who does not have a good health would not be able to cope with it.
