A nice book: Elsie spent her whole life helping those underprivileged and gained a high reputation. However, recently we seldom hear Elsie expresses her ideas in the mass media. What a pity !What's the problem ? I bet it's the problem that our media do not accept voices from the minority. Although I do not agree all the points of Elsie's politicial ideas in this book, I still think her ideas are incisive and peculiar. They're worth to think about. For those who are interested in Hong Kong social history or concern about the democracy movement, I recomnmend they should read this book. I bet they may have a more in-depth view to today's Hong Kong political situation after reading the book.
Here's a person REALLY knows the truth: Although the book is titled Colonial Hong Kong... Tu links imperialism to the most current events of our time. Some of the chapters (I.e. 24 ,25) discuses topics from the 2000 Gore/Bush election swindle, to the current G.W.Bush administration and Iraq. She really sees it all. I recommend all Americans to read it, and compare Tu's take on important issues with the lies that U.S mass media presented to us all these years.
