Holy shit, Hong Kong has its own national Olympic team? What in the actual fuck?!
I think it’s a holdover from the British colonial days. Puerto Rico has one too.
I keep forgetting that a lot of people on the internet were too young to remember/not born around the time of the handover in 1997.
My anime poisoned brain always remembers Neo-Hong Kong being the host country for the Gundam Fight tournament lol.
I think part of it is, in table tennis China is so dominant that it allows more Chinese competitors. I don’t think HK competes in anything else. It’s like if they allowed Texas to compete as its own country in flag football (yes, that will be an Olympic event in 2028).
