HK - the sensible ID Cards.

""

I always thought it was bizarre that the government cancelled the ID card system, seems we now know why. Who needs a card when you have someones fingers? I also don't for one minute believe that this is not going to be used to record fingerprints.

I do not like the direction this country is going.""

Here in Hong Kong, we are legally required to carry I.D. at all times outside of one's home.

It's no great sweat when used to arrest Commie Chinese malefactors, and others wanted by the law.

Me? I have held a series of HKID cards for more than 40 years - shortly after I happily dumped UK residence to get away from the trash that had invaded UK.
