New Hong Kong Textbooks Claims that Hong Kong has Never Been a Colony
#MingPao, a newspaper in Hong Kong, recently found four textbooks from three publishers that claim "Hong Kong is not a colony" in the module "Citizenship and Social Development".
One textbook even stated, "China has always had sovereignty over Hong Kong, while Britain only exercised colonial rule in Hong Kong."
Commons, a media outlet, confirmed the constitutional and historical status of Hong Kong as a former British colony, after researching historical documents and materials from the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, and the United Nations.
The media outlet also interviewed Dr. Yeung Wing-yun, who was a former Manager of Assessment Development in the History Division of the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority (HKEAA) and had taught high school and universities in Hong Kong.
