Haldanes Law Matters – Episode 24 With Guest Brian Wong

After discussing everything from geopolitics, to education, via US-China relations, and explaining why you should think horizontally and diagonally, not just vertically, Jonathan Midgley and his guest Dr. Brian Wong turn their attention to law, Hong Kong and personal integrity on the latest episode of “Haldanes Law Matters.”

The two examine the significance of common law to Hong Kong and the surprising comments by President Xi on the subject, also why Hong Kong is far from finished despite being written off by some on a more less regular basis since the 1980s, and the importance of being “a proper person,” with a sense of conviction.

Brian is an HKU-100 Assistant Professor in Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong, but calling him just an academic barely scratches the surface. He researches everything from authoritarian states to AI, advises global investors, and shapes public debate.
