Post-War Hong Kong Chronicle

After the end of World War II in 1945, Hong Kong was liberated, but Britain refused to return its sovereignty to China. This book explores the early history of Hong Kong's liberation, uncovering lesser-known facts. It delves into the disputes between China and Britain over Hong Kong's sovereignty, the diplomatic complexities of accepting the Japanese army's surrender, the truth behind the entry of Chinese troops into Kowloon, and the fate of influential publications like the "Overseas Chinese Daily News" and the closure of the "Kwok Man Yat Po." Originally published in 1996 as part of the "Hong Kong War History Series," this reissued edition commemorates the victory of the War of Resistance and pays tribute to Mr. Tse Wing-kwong, a renowned history expert in Hong Kong.
