"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]
