On the front lines in Hong Kong, and why NZ needs to be careful


Listen Later

The protests in Hong Kong have now been going for more than 100 days, and it seems neither side is willing to give up.

It started with plans to allow extraditions to mainland China, but has now grown into a wider movement questioning the entire relationship between Hong Kong and the mainland.

Herald reporter Keith Ng has been on the ground in Hong Kong, and joined me on the Front Page to talk about the levels of anger in Hong Kong, what's at stake, and why NZ needs to be careful not to become a pawn.
