> In 2007, to commemorate the 10th Anniversary celebration the Hong Kong Government published a song, "Just Because You Are Here" (Chinese: 始終有你).

People genuinely like that song, corny as it was! Wow, 2007, what a year. People were still excited that Handover hadn't gone as bad as some had feared, and people still had hope for a reformed China that could learn from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

I can't believe it's been 13 years! It's at the same time a different, distant memory of the world but also feels like yesterday.
