I apologise for adding to this particular conversstion topic thread. I normally don't comment on matters involving non-domestic company shipping / sales policies as I don't normally have any specific information that other, more experienced members, wouldn't normally have and would have already contributed, but on this occasion, on this specific date, I do.
As of just over 12 hours ago, the, until 24hrs ago, previously separate governed entity state, City of Hong Kong, has just come under a new security ruling that, amongst other security/policing/legal oversights, (including as of 12hrs ago, international sales and customs using businesses), are now subject to the laws and regulations of the ruling party of mainland China. The domestic news, here in England I mean, are primarily focusing on the parts of the changes involving the Communist Party's ability to arrest, charge and imprison any resident of Hong Kong that they deem have/might have at some point in the past AND possibly in the future, a 'negative impact' to themselves, but the newly created and modified laws mean that all companies based in and around the Hong Kong area that EXPORT goods of a higher value are now required to follow set regulations of the ruling party of the mainland.
I don't know how this will effect your goods coming out of China but the company itself, if based in Hong Kong, just got a serious delay to the paperwork processing at customs for outwards headed goods.
I'll phrase this carefully . . .
All f×××ing hell has just been dropped on both the people residing in Hong Kong and the businesses operating out of it.
I'm sorry if all of that seems very odd in comparison to my usual postings. There isn't any joviality in this one posting from me this time.
