KUALA LUMPUR: There has been an increase in the number of Hong Kong buyers looking to purchase a home at Malaysian-owned Battersea Power Station in London in the past few months as UK immigration policy could pave the way to citizenship for Hongkongers.
Recently, British prime minister Boris Johnson had vowed to overhaul immigration rules to grant almost three million Hong Kong residents a pathway to British citizenship in response to Beijing’s move to impose the national security law as a threat to the city’s autonomy.
