So the UK has no kind of records of any British people born in Hong Kong any more? If our house burnt down my dad would have to rely on the Hong Kong (China) government to get a replacement document to get a new British passport etc?
I'm not saying that the HK government is bad per se, but it seems a bit weird that the UK has no kind of records of British people born in a British Colony and that someone would have to go to a foreign country or apply to a foreign government in order to get British document copies.
