Domestic futures industry's enthusiasm for branching out in Hong Kong is obviously strong.

Foreign investors have more lucrative investment sectors to put their money into, but the futures market is clearly not a sound option for them now as it is not profitable industry for the time being.

The majority of Taiwan people cannot accept Taiwan becoming a second Hong Kong, nor can we accept Taiwan becoming a local government of the People's Republic of China or a Special Administrative Region of China.

In Hong Kong, 'wonton' means swallowing a cloud.
