S17E13 Hong Kong’s Exodus

Hong Kong is experiencing its largest emigration wave in history, with hundreds of thousands departing since the implementation of a strict national security law by Beijing. Detractors argue that the region has turned into a police state, as most political opposition figures have either been imprisoned or are now in exile. BBC’s Danny Vincent has been reporting on Hong Kong residents who are resolute in their quest to build new lives in the UK, alongside those who are committed to remaining in their homeland.
