Momentum builds for change to Hong Kong asylum laws / Boston globe, 31 Jul 2006

John Ruwitch
"The former British colony on China's southern coast may be one of the freest and wealthiest societies in Asia, but it lacks laws and a coherent policy on asylum seekers and refugees, and many who come here for relief land in a political purgatory. Hong Kong is not a party to the 1951 Refugee Convention, which spells out the basic human rights to which refugees and applicants are entitled." [Country Profiles; s.a. from Immigration]
