    Wikipedia did a deal with the Chinese government to allow the site to be unblocked but allow the Chinese government to block some pages. Must mean there are some lies China is telling their people about Hong Kong.

    I'm in the Republic of China, and I can access all Wiki.

    I tried "HK" and came up with "He Knows".....

    Maybe that is some sort of religious web page that is currently blocked by the CCP. Not sure.

    I'm in Hebei and my ISP connects through servers in Guangdong... I was using Google Chrome; I could'nt access through Yahoo! search, but could through Google HK search. I then switched to Microsoft IE; I could access through both Yahoo! and Google HK searches. I closed IE and reopened Google Chrome again; this time I could access through Yahoo! search. For me, it's always been hit n' miss (with more hits than misses) accessing Wikipedia regardless of MS IE, Google Chrome, Yahoo! search or Google HK search.

    HK is undergoing heated debate on the criteria in choosing proper candidates for the 2017 universal suffrage. HK people need candidates who could stand firm on the best interests of the people and the city and do not want CCP puppets like CY Leung to sell out HK to the corrupted commies up north. Unlike Mainland Chinese HK people dare criticize CCP commies which may have caused the censorship.

    EDIT

    CCP Lap Dog is telling the world that "Didn't HK people once as terrible as Mainlanders".

    64 years gone by as a "super big" country (HK's only a small colonial city), what have CCP done to train and educate her people to be responsible, well-behaved world citizens? Nothing.

    Bear in mind that after WWII ended the population of HK was under 500,000. By 1970s-80s HK's population sharply increased to 3-4 million with 99% of them refugees and immigrants originated from the horrible CCP mafia state fleeing to the free British colony, bringing along their horrible and bad behaviors ie spitting, littering, jumping queue, scamming, corruptions.

    Under the then superb governing and management of the Brits, HK Government was quick enough to legislate and enforce tough laws in the 70s to correct the Mainland immigrants' bad behaviors.

    Now comes another huge herd of horrible Mainlanders deliberately dumped onto HK by CCP after the merge in 1997 just to "make HK look feel and behave like China", SAD.

    Is CCP so dumb or simply so savage who doesn't give a damn to CCP mafia mentality and acts? How will Shanghainese feel if Shanghai all of a sudden ruled under Somalis with Somalia sending millions of Somalis immigrants there eroding Shanghainese cultures and traditions?

    CCP officials are a whole bunch of greedy, ruthless mafia gangsters who do things totally out of their private pockets needs with absolutely no respect of people not their gang.

    Similar to Tibetans and Xinjiangers, Hongkongers are increasingly fed up with the loads of ruthless, bad-mannered, greedy, corrupted and poor Mainlanders deliberately dumped onto HK by CCP, disrupting peace and cultures there.

    Since 1997 HK merging with China, CCP has already dumped 900,000 ruthless and poor Mainland immigrants to HK, many required to pay bribes to CCP officials to immigrate to HK. These people are lazy, uneducated, bad mannerism, don't follow cultures and traditions of HK and expect HK taxpayers to hand them all the free housing and benefits without making any contributions. Whenever there're conflicts of interests between HK and CCP, these idiotic Mainlanders would come out to support the corrupted regime. We have one good example on Yahoo Answer, CCP Lap Dog.

    The displease of Hongkongers towards CCP/Mainlanders purposely eroding HK's cultures and traditions is expressed as follows by bloggers, "HK people are furious at China bringing over their cultures of faking, corruptions, bribery, inconsideration, cheating, pollutions and toxic food - melting HK into CCP culture."

    一聽到"中港融合"就扯火。大陸不斷輸入造假文化、沒公德心文化、送禮文化,

    選舉舞弊文化、污染香港。

    一些獻媚的香港人為做政協人大,

    斷送香港幾代人辛苦建立的廉政、

    法治、言論自由。

    "中港融合"根本是溶掉香港。

    Another blogger says "Because of China, Hong Kong is going to finish quickly",

    魯平: 沒有大陸,香港一定完蛋!

    市民: 因為大陸,香港更快完蛋!

    香港徹底被大陸摧毀,玩X完.. 五毛狗死全家!

    A blogger describes precisely, "Mainlanders go to HK to do 2 things, to pee on the streets and to steal."

    大陸豬落黎香港只兩樣野會做, 1- 隨街大小2便, 2- 就係犯案.

    Though some Mainlanders are very respectful and nice people as Mr Liu Maoxing, even half of the annual 45 million CCP visitors to HK are crooks more than enough to turn the small city completely upside down.

    Because of millions Mainlanders nowadays still eager to become Hongkongers that USA is reluctant to give Hong Kong visa-free status to prevent corrupted Mainlanders using HK as a springboard - a typical example of bad luck to be lumped together with the corrupted CCP mafia regime.

    Despite HK being the richest city in Asia, it's the only "Four Little Dragons" not given US' visa-free.

    HK's CEO must be selected by ALL real Hongkongers in 2017 who dare say NO to Beijing in order to prevent ruthless, corrupted, uncivilized CCP/Mainlanders from further abusing the place. Ruthless, greedy, corrupted and abusive Mainlanders should all be expelled out of the city permanently!
