Stephen Roach, former Wall Street chief economist and Hong Kong-based chair of Morgan Stanley Asia, caused controversy earlier this year with the publishing of an opinion piece headlined "It pains me to say Hong Kong is over." His case reflected three considerations - the tight economic linkages between Hong Kong and a faltering mainland Chinese economy, the crossfire of the US-China conflict and the tough political climate in the aftermath of the new national security laws enacted by Beijing and Hong Kong. 

Hear him speak about the fallout of that opinion piece in the ensuing months since publishing, hear about the issues and considerations he is focused on for Hong Kong and mainland China in the immediate future, and hear the questions asked of him at the FCC Club Lunch on June 5th, moderated by FCC Correspondent Governor Jenn Jett.
