HKBU, History, Year 3:
"Nanjing. As Cheung Jiang passes through the city, transportation is very efficient.
And it is near to Taiwan and Hong Kong. I like its urban planning, too." |

Leung Kai Chi,
HKBU, Geography, Year 3:
"I would still choose Beijing. In fact, I don't think there is any better
replacement because Beijing is already the most suitable to be the capital city of
China." |

Yip Heung Tung,
HKU, Accounting and Finance, Year 1: "Shanghai.
Its coastal location is beneficial for trade, making it the most developed economic zone
in China. The vicinity to Nanjing also justifies my choice." |

Shirley Wong,
City U, Public Administration and Marketing, Year 1: "Hong Kong. It is free of natural disasters such as
earthquakes. Besides, the hardworking people in Hong Kong make it a good place for
investments." |

Jasmine Tai,
HKUST, Accounting, Year 1: "I would
recommend Hangzhou to be the capital city because the natural scenery is beautiful. When
foreign ambassadors visit China, our officials could take them there to have a look." |
