I love HK. Yes, of course, I agree that China should abide by its agreement in HK. I can see why HK residents don't like the proposed extradition law.
Obama was soft on China. Trump is tougher on China. Especially on trade and IP.
Someone told me that the conviction rate in HK is 99.3%.
that's the conviction rate on the mainland. in hong kong, it has been very low, or so my limited search shows. feel free to provide more up-to-date statistics, if you can. you are a lawyer, you should know better search terms than me. try using baidu. ha.

Thanks. But what about the other courts in HK, the Court of First Instance and the District Court. You provided stats only for the Magistrates Court.
You are the researcher who claims to have attended Cambridge. Go for it. I actually don't care what the conviction rate is in China or HK. I am more into Griz football stats, and the US economic, job and stock market stats.
well, you were the one who brought up conviction rates. no research necessary, though. hong kong still has some rule of law, china hasn't had any for... at least 70 years, maybe a lot longer. i'm not a lawyer though, so what do you expect? i wouldn't tell you to go research glutamatergic feedback signaling in the locus coeruleus and fairly expect any kind of sophisticated answer.
but, i do agree, you need to keep with simple stats. much more down your ally.
Your response that 99% was China and not HK was sufficient. Then, in the same post, you provided incomplete and incorrect information. So I pointed that out. You are the one who provided the research/stats on the subject. I didn't ask for it. I am happy to stay in my lane, which is football, business and law. You should try staying in your lane. But you apparently seem to think that you are an expert in football, business and law.
