 Can Suriname Become The Next Hong Kong?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
The British Crown Colony of Hong Kong is one of the world's major international business and trade centers, a strategically located "gateway to the Orient" and the main transhipment port between the West and the vast markets of the rapidly developing southeastern Asian nations, especially mainland China itself.
Hong Kong also enjoys incredibly cheap labor, located as it is on the southeast coast of China, bordering on the province of Kwangtung, a source of constant refugee flow.
For example, the huge Hong Kong refugee population from mainland China and other parts of Asia meant adoption of major government welfare programs might jeopardize the economic health of the colony, (and the large profits of business), so welfarism as it is known in the socialist West was never even tried.

 Opinion Concerning Legal and Lawful Existence Of the Dominion of Melchizedek
Part of the British colony of Hong Kong is held by the United Kingdom under a lease from china which is due to expire in 1997 when Hong Kong is returned under an agreement reached by the two countries in 1984.
At this point it is difficult to estimate the number of members in the Dominion, for to do so would require one to estimate the number of people who first believe in Melchizedek's role as King of the everlasting Kingdom of Salem, and his role as High Priest after the Most High God.
In any event, the sheer number of people who have requested citizenship and Dominion of Melchizedek passports during the past five years certainly satisfies the requirement of a defined population within the Dominion, irrespective of where each citizen chooses to make their home.
