Comment an opinion from a Hong Kong student now in USA (Score 2) 338
I'm a 3 years Linux user from Hong Kong. I start to install my first Slackware Linux 3.2 package from Walnut Creek 3 years ago.
I really do not want to stay in Hong Kong anymore. It's true that to a certain extent, university students in HK can do some protests. But noticably after the handover, the government is biased to Beijing. Some eggheads of the top government officials do not like to admit the fact of June 4th. Worst probably is the Democracy Party is always seemed to be minorities and unfairly represented in the government. Hong Kong is not the place for geeks anymore. That's what I feel.
Personally I hope the opensource movement can creat more bright programmers and inspire more people about democracy. Linux OS is the best option for most China industry. At least it is no long need to pay to Redmond anymore should there is a truly great Chinese End-user Linux distribution.
One more thing, do you know that making a Chinese search engine is much more difficult than a simple PERL search engine scripts you saw at www.cgi-resources.com ? Chinese Big-5 and GB codings are much more complicated and there's still not a standard way to sort Chinese words !
