Are you people still has that kind slave mentality to the British ? You think the British still ruled the world in the 1980s and 1990s as it did in the 19th century, lol ? So you think British was able to project power into Chinese mainland and coast and fight PLA to win ? You must be joking. AS a fact, Thatcher before agreeing to hand back HK to China in the 1980s after winning the Falkland war, just asked his military advisor if Britain was able to win a war against China in HK, her advisor told her not, so she gave up HK. Keep dreaming that Britain is still the great, the sun had set on the island since WW II.Not Portugal but UK.... remember UK is still one of the top tier nuclear power and its navy is capable of projecting British power all over world... in 1999 China was actually backward compared to UK and do not forget you actually asked entry in Hong Kong to Chinese military and police 1 day prior of handover so you can take care of law and order and only for 1 day UK refused your request....
In Tawan's case you have to deal with USA which is different beast altogether....
