Abstract | The author argues that by and large, fundamental rights have been upheld in the last decade. The promise of a high degree of autonomy has largely been kept as the Central Government has exercised great restraint in not interfering with the domestic affairs of Hong Kong, save in the area of democratic development. Nonetheless, many cases with political overtones are increasingly brought before the Courts. If this trend continues and if the judiciary is unable to meet the expectations of the people, the rule of law in Hong Kong will be undermined. |
