WHO recognizes Hong Kong?
The People’s Republic of China
Hong Kong exists as a Special Administrative Region controlled by The People’s Republic of China and enjoys its own limited autonomy as defined by the Basic Law. The principle of “one country, two systems” allows for the coexistence of socialism and capitalism under “one country,” which is mainland China.
What percentage of Hong Kong is white?
Ethnic minorities
| Ethnic group | 2006 By-census | 2011 Census |

What is the mainstream stance of Taiwan’s opposition parties?
The mainstream stance of the current major opposition party in Taiwan, the KMT, is somewhere in the middle of these two, and is predicated on the “one China principle,” which holds that both Taiwan and the mainland are part of China and the two parts shall unify.
What is the best option for Taiwan’s political future?
What is notable are the options corresponding to the status quo.

It shows a strong base of light green supporters in Taiwan.
Does Taiwan have its own country?
Here are the results: In accordance with conventional wisdom, both the deep green position (Taiwanese do not have their own country) and the pro-CCP position (the PRC is the only legitimate China, and both Taiwan and the mainland are part of it) had meager support of less than 10 percent.
Why is Taiwan so popular with foreign media?
Taiwan has recently received the international media spotlight due to its successful fight against COVID-19. This burgeoning democracy in East Asia, however, can be puzzling to a foreign audience.
