The unprovoked hostility in Soho “brought out the anger in me because you scratch the surface, and suddenly you’re back to a much darker period of British cultural history, when people were overtly racist”, he says. “I think people here are still racist towards Chinese and East Asians, although there was a grudging respect because of the way China has advanced and become an economic superpower. All that seems to have changed with Covid-19.”
Tse’s experience is far from unique. In the first three months of 2020, police say there have been at least 267 recorded hate crimes against Chinese, East Asian and Southeast Asian people in Britain, compared with 375 in the whole of 2019. Thousands more are believed to have gone unreported.

A survey of more than 400 people of these ethnicities living in Britain found more than a third had experienced racism in public places since the beginning of the outbreak. Researchers warn incidents are likely to increase as the lockdown is lifted.
In a matter of weeks, a country mostly seen as diverse, tolerant and generally welcoming has become a toxic mixture of post-Brexit racism and Sinophobia, a sometimes menacing place for a resident population of more than 430,000 Chinese people, as well as more than 120,000 Chinese students at British universities.
The threat was most vividly illustrated in early March by a vicious attack on Singaporean student Jonathan Mok, who was left with a black eye, a broken bone below his eye and a swollen face after being attacked by a two teenagers in Oxford Street, just a few minutes’ walk from where Tse would later be verbally abused. Mok told police that as the teenagers attacked him, one shouted, “I don’t want your coronavirus in my country.”

Now a group of prominent Chinese, East Asians and Hongkongers living in Britain have banded together to fight the rising tide of attacks and discrimination. CARG – the Covid-19 Anti-Racism Group – has launched a petition calling on Prime Minister Boris Johnson to make a clear declaration that the British government “deplores racism and hate crimes arising from Covid-19 against British East Asian people and international students in our country”.
The group also issued a statement calling on the media, public figures and political leaders to emphasise “solidarity, courage and mutual support across all communities rather than feed hostility, division and racism”.
The depth of concern among Chinese and East Asian communities in Britain can be seen in the messages posted by people signing up to CARG. “I’m living in fear for my children and me because of the rising hate crimes,” wrote one. “I’m very worried about my future as a British Chinese living in the UK,” wrote another.
“We’ve had Brexit already so there’s a lot of racist anti-immigrant thinking in this country and now it’s being stoked further,” says Tse, a founding member of CARG. “It is a very dangerous time we are living in. Some Hong Kong students might want to think twice about coming here. I wouldn’t want Hongkongers and mainland Chinese to put their lives at risk. It’s only a matter of time before this Brexit ‘Britain First’ toxicity affects one of us very badly.

“They are playing the racecard and scapegoating. They have racialised a disease and they are promoting Sino­phobic propaganda, echoing what the Nazis did in Germany against the Jews. People are angry. It’s like the 1930s in the sense that the economy is going to tank and people are listening more to extremist voices. Propa­ganda works, especially when people are hurting.”
At the root of the problem, Tse believes, is the fact that while Asian countries have handled the coronavirus effec­tively, Britain’s approach has been marred by “complacency, negligence and incompetence”. He says, “It shows the resi­dual colonialism, arrogance and the notion they knew better because they were more advanced and more civil­ised.
“They were looking down their noses and treating it as a foreign disease that could not possibly affect plucky little Britain. We had nine weeks to prepare and throughout that time I was aware of the severity of the outbreak because all my family and friends in Hong Kong were WhatsApping me on a daily basis. But the government here was just twiddling its thumbs.”
In April, arts patron and CARG founding member Geoff Leong had all four tyres on his Mercedes slashed outside the house he shares with his wife, Marie-Claire, and their three children in north London.

The founder of Dumplings’ Legend restaurant, in London’s Chinatown, a favourite among celebrities and royalty, believes his car was targeted by someone who knew he was Chinese. He responded by writing the word “Why?” on each damaged tyre and posting a message on the car asking: “How is my NHS (National Health Service) doctor wife going to get to work today?”
“We have to stop this,” Leong says. “There must be no more of this prejudice. People have to speak with a strong voice against race crime, not just put their heads down and ignore it.”
He noticed attitudes to Asians in London had begun to change when he saw a woman stepping to one side and “staring me out” in a shop before the lockdown began. “It was like a comic scene at first,” he says. “Another time, a couple were walking their dog and saw me approach and literally dragged their dog aside to get it away from me – and this was before social distancing was introduced.”
Soon after, Leong’s 12-year-old daughter was shouted at by a woman in their local supermarket and Leong “went back to the shopkeeper who had seen it happen and I said it was really wrong and that you need to stand up to people who do these things”.

Posted by MoneyMachineMaker发发发 > 2020-06-03 11:51 | Report Abuse

Having moved to Britain from Hong Kong at the age of 10, to attend boarding school, Leong says the atmosphere in London is markedly different now. “London is a very diverse, metropolitan city, people know about political correctness, but the agenda changed when Brexit came and when Trump came. Now, people are thinking, ‘You look Chinese, you look East Asian, you must have Covid-19.’ That is absolutely wrong and we have to stamp this out.”
An early focus of CARG’s campaign were reports in the British press that they say racialised Covid-19 and created “a climate of fear, anger and hatred” towards British Chinese and East and Southeast Asian communities. References to the pandemic as “the Chinese virus” and attempts by the government to deflect criticism of its failure to prepare for the coronavirus’ arrival have triggered racist attacks and attitudes, the group claims.
British-born Chinese Pek-san Tan, who works as head of press at the London Chinatown Chinese Associ­ation and whose parents-in-law are from Hong Kong, is concerned about the potential long-term impact of “casual racism” on her children, aged five and three.
Before schools closed and the lockdown began, young children were playing games of coronavirus “it” in some primary school playgrounds and singling out Asian pupils, she says. “I had seen what was happening and I didn’t think young impressionable minds should be subjected to that because you don’t know what psychological effect it will have on them in the future.”

Since the outbreak began, Tan has not taken her children on public transport. Fortunately, her children were at home when she was confronted by three girls who verbally abused her as she walked through a London Underground station with an elderly relative in February. “They started swearing about the coronavirus and using the worst expletives you can imagine,” she says. “I told them they were being ignorant and that the virus doesn’t discriminate.”
Minutes later, as she spoke on her phone to the British Transport Police to report the incident outside the station, Tan was subjected to a second assault. “A well-dressed couple came towards me and the man walked right up to me and coughed in my face,” she says.
Tan says it is important to confront Sinophobia early to stop it spreading. “I know the Chinese com­mu­nity are having it really bad now but I look to other communities in the country – my Muslim friends or my black friends, who have a whole history of racism against them – and I think this is the poem And then they came for me.
“What we are doing with CARG is firefighting an immediate issue in our own city, because we are British citizens and this is our home, and I can’t bear to see my countrymen descend into this sort of discrimination.”

This rising tide of race attacks and Britain’s inability to contain it could have an impact on the number of Chinese and East Asian students who sign up for universities in the country. More than 120,000 attended in the last academic year – a 30,000 increase on 2014-15 – but it is unclear how many will return in the autumn.
For now, at least, it appears racism is not their biggest worry, according to Tan, who has spoken to friends with children at British universities. “The way they see it is that racism is everywhere and their biggest concern is whether the UK health care system can sort itself out and people can learn to wear masks,” she says.
Whether the Covid-19 racism coursing through Britain outlives the pandemic or dies away with it remains to be seen. Whatever happens, walking away is not an option for Tse and many others for whom Britain has been home for decades.
“If I were to leave now and go back to Hong Kong, it would feel like running away from a problem that needs to be resolved,” he says.
Instead, when he found himself confronted by bigotry in Soho, he made sure that – unlike during his days behind the counter in his parents’ takeaway – he wasn’t going to let a racist have the last word. “When she had finished yelling at me, I said, ‘F*** your f***ing racism and your f***ing paranoia,’” he says. “She seemed quite shocked that a Chinese person was assertive enough to answer her in the same way she had spoken to me.”
A chronology of racism – ‘We are not welcomed’
January 30 A female Chinese student in Sheffield, where there are 8,000 Chinese students, is shoved and abused in the street for wearing a face mask. Sarah Ng, from the Sheffield Chinese Commu­nity Centre, says the student was following advice from the media in mainland China and Hong Kong to wear a mask but said the sight of them added to a sense of “panic” in the population.
“We need to put out a balanced message of under­stand­ing about why Chinese students are wearing masks,” she suggests.

It isn’t just a robbery. There’s also knowing I’ve been targeted because of my ethnicity,” he says.

Hong Kong security law: China weighs risk US will go for ‘nuclear option’ and cut Beijing from the dollar payment system
Risks of US financial sanctions emerge for China after National People’s Congress approves national security law for Hong Kong
Beijing wonders whether Washington will cut it off from US dollar payment system and hasten the demise of dollar hegemony in the process

Posted by MoneyMachineMaker发发发 > 2020-06-03 11:53 | Report Abuse

A new and troubling question is suddenly looming for Beijing: will the Trump administration abuse the power of the US dollar to hurt China following Beijing’s plan to impose a new national security law in Hong Kong?
While the probability remains very low that China will be treated like Russia or Iran, and US President Donald Trump has not mentioned sanctions against Hong Kong or Chinese financial institutions, the risk of a financial war – including being cut off from the US dollar system – is no longer “unthinkable” for China.
If Washington were to sever China’s corporate and financial system from the US dollar payments system, which is underpinned by infrastructure such as the Swift international payments messaging system and the Clearing House Interbank Payments System (Chips), it could start a financial tsunami that would lead global finance into unchartered territory, officials and analysts said.
“It’s clearly a nuclear option for the US,” said a Chinese official who has been briefed on internal discussions about Beijing’s response to the possible US reaction to the national security law in Hong Kong. “It would hurt China, but it would probably hurt the US more.”

Posted by MoneyMachineMaker发发发 > 2020-06-03 11:53 | Report Abuse

The official, who declined to be identified, said this scenario was still regarded in the Chinese capital as a “low probability event” and a last resort. “Such an act would be closer to a hot war than a Cold War,” the source said.

The stakes could not be higher as it could severely alter the world’s economic landscape for years to come.
Like virtually every other country in the world, China relies on the US dollar as a payment method for most international trade, financing and investment activities, with financial institutions in Hong Kong often playing a gateway role.
China’s use of the US dollar has helped America to maintain its currency’s “exorbitant privilege” – a phase used by former French finance minister Valéry Giscard d’Estaing in 1965 – in the international monetary system.
Beijing’s view of the US dollar is complicated. On the one hand, China’s government sits on the world’s largest stockpile of foreign reserves, over half of which is in dollar-denominated assets. Beijing also regards the US dollar as a kind of strategic asset, limiting the ability of Chinese citizens to exchange the yuan for the dollar to US$50,000 per year and keeping a wary eye on companies transferring dollars out of the country.

Posted by MoneyMachineMaker发发发 > 2020-06-03 11:54 | Report Abuse

On the other hand, Beijing has been trying hard over the last decade to undermine the US dollar’s power. China’s former central bank governor proposed in 2009 that a new super sovereign currency should be created to replace the dollar.
China has encouraged the use of yuan in trade settlements, it has set up a market in Shanghai to trade yuan-denominated crude oil futures contracts, and it has developed a cross-border yuan payment system, signed dozens of bilateral yuan currency swap deals and even created its own multilateral bank.
These efforts, however, have achieved only limited success as the US dollar remains the first choice for traders, investors and central bankers around the world.
The yuan’s international use is limited compared to the dollar – the latest figure from the Swift system showed that the yuan accounts for just 1.66 per cent of international payment transactions versus the 43 per cent of the US dollar.

Posted by MoneyMachineMaker发发发 > 2020-06-03 11:54 | Report Abuse

In addition, more than 70 per cent of the yuan’s use in international payments takes place in Hong Kong, which has a separate currency and financial system from the mainland.
Because the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the US dollar and is freely convertible to other currencies, it serves as a means for China to access global capital.
Concerns are growing that the US may move to weaken or even break these links, depriving China of access to global funding while undermining Hong Kong’s status as an international financial centre and readily hurting the US dollar in the process.
The US has imposed financial sanctions upon a number of Chinese companies and banks before. Zhuhai Zhenhua, a state-owned oil company, was punished for breaking US sanctions against Iran, while Bank of Kunlun has also been cut off from the US payment system. But these sanctions are often targeted without broader implications.

Posted by MoneyMachineMaker发发发 > 2020-06-03 11:54 | Report Abuse

a professor at Hong Kong University of Science, said cutting China from the dollar payment system would backfire, as Washington needs Beijing to keep buying its rapidly growing national debt.
China holds US$1.1 trillion worth of US Treasuries securities, or about 4.4 per cent of total national debt, according to the latest US Treasury data.
If the US cuts China from the global dollar payments system, Beijing would speed up its internationalisation of the yuan and accelerate its push to create a global currency system that does not rely on the American currency.
“The US can bully Iran and Venezuela that do not have political and financial power. But the size of China and its currency are too big, so the US does not dare to take such extreme measures,” Lui said.

China’s unhappiness about the US dollar is not new. China’s former premier Wen Jiabao said in March 2009 that he was “a bit worried” about the safety of the nation’s large US Treasuries holdings after the US Federal Reserve started its unconventional quantitative easing programme – pumping money directly into the financial system by buying up US Treasury and mortgage-backed securities – to combat the global financial crisis.
The central bank’s decision this year to resume quantitative easing in a bid to help the US economy survive the coronavirus outbreak has again raised eyebrows in China.
Huang Qifan, the former mayor of the large Chinese municipality of Chongqing, said in May that the US “should not incessantly issue debt nor have limitless quantitative easing” because of the risk it posed to the value of dollar.
US national debt has surged above US$25 trillion from US$22 trillion at the end of December.

Posted by MoneyMachineMaker发发发 > 2020-06-03 11:55 | Report Abuse

The US Federal Reserve has jumped to buy Treasury bonds, mortgage-backed securities and even corporate credit, to support the domestic economy. It has also opened new types of lending to foreign central banks to help ease a shortage of US dollars in international financial markets, including Hong Kong.
But Huang said these measures were designed for “short-sighted American politics and the election cycle” and will reach a tipping point that undermines the dollar when the federal government debt amounts to 150 per cent of its gross domestic product.
“If it goes to 150 per cent, it will definitely mean an economic implosion … the US dollar would lose its credit standing and status,” Huang said.
Chinese researchers are calling for an acceleration of efforts to cut the nation’s reliance on the US dollar.

Posted by MoneyMachineMaker发发发 > 2020-06-03 11:56 | Report Abuse

Li Yang, a fellow at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences who had advised the central bank, said in an online forum in May that China must accelerate the internationalisation of the yuan and use its economic power to promote the currency abroad in the face of headwinds in the financial sector.
While the dollar remains the anchor currency in the global monetary system, its dominance is gradually weakening.
At the end of 2019, allocation of global reserves in the US dollar had slipped to 60.8 per cent, from 66 per cent in 2015. Dollar assets accounted for 58 per cent in China’s foreign exchange reserves at the end of 2014, down from 79 per cent in 2005, according to the latest data released by the Chinese State Administration of Foreign Exchange.
Cao Yuanzheng, a researcher at Bank of China International, said any US efforts to isolate China from the dollar payment system could accelerate the formation of a new international monetary order to replace the one that came into existence after World War II.
“We’ll see what new monetary system will emerge in the next 20 to 30 years,” Cao said.

Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales have devolved governments and differing characteristics. To a certain extent they are separate countries. United kingdoms consist of four countries, Britain is not London and what happens in London is not an accurate measure of Britain. For instance, in Scotland the ruling party, SNP, continually invites immigrants to consider moving here.
