When did China become a race? I know some Asian who will be quick correct some calling them Chinese, they are Asian.
The reporter herself could be Hong Kong descent wonder whey she is ashamed of being from Hong Kong if so.
I know some people from Hong Kong that would be offended to be called China descent. Two different groups of Asians in thinking and behavior, unfair to put them in same group.
Just research she is from Xiamen, China not Hong Kong... She should be tough on China, I guess her parents did not tell he how bad China was.
