Fantastic. Her farher is irish (hence the name) her mother is Chinese. She was born in Hong Kong. And she's the great niece of former Irish prime minister.
She is a fine example of what we were discussing a few days back. It doesn't matter who you are, as long as you are willing to compete for China (exclude mercenary)
I was watching the ping-pong match between Chen Meng (China) and Doo Hoi Kem (Hong Kong). It was a very high quality and close match. If this is not the Olympics, and just a regular tournament, I would not have felt what I felt just now. Everytime the Hong Kong player fist pump an intensely won point against Chen Meng, a surge of hatred for Hong Kong went through myself. I was wondering why would a fellow country man or woman be allowed to sabotage the motherland? I was picturing the situation where China and the US are neck in neck in the medals table, and in comes this Hong Kong player, fist pump and all, to tide the balance in the US favour. With the Americans gigling at the back.
Like I've said, if this is not the Olympics, I'd not be feeling the way I did. Provinces do compete against each other, but they don't do it against the motherland itself. And furthermore, what greater honour can there be than to be representing your own country? I know there are still a lot of baggage to be discarded before Hong Kongers can finally represent China in sporting events, but the sooner this becomes reality, the better it'd be.You must resist this hatred towards your fellow countryman. As I said before, not every Hong Konger is a traitor like this one. He's now change his shirt.

There are others quite proudly representing Hong Kong, and wearing their official attaire no problem. And look! They all do fist pump whoever their opponents are. It's a way of motivating oneself. Don't forget, within China, there's also sporting competition between provinces and counties etc. And these competitors all do fist pump.

And look at this half Irish lady proudly displaying her Hong Kong flag....... And why not? It is when the used condoms waving their old union Jack Hong Kong flags you should have issue with.

Not a good idea because.. ...... dare I say it without upsetting our other esteemed member. Quotas! In this way we get more athletes.
Lol. Like I said, they might, just might, have a chance with kabbadi. As far as I'm aware not many countries plays it. Pakistan, Bangladesh?
