In recent weeks, Hong Kong's new symbol - a red and yellow dragon - has become the talk of the town.
The dragon, a part of the Government's new Brand Hong Kong Programme, has been designed to communicate Hong Kong's link to a historical and cultural icon.
The body of the dragon includes both the Chinese characters for 'Hong Kong' and the letters 'HK'. The flowing lines of the dragon also mirror Chinese calligraphy.
This dual expression symbolises a blend of East and West which characterises Hong Kong. The dragon's smooth, fluid shape imparts a sense of movement and speed, symbolising that Hong Kong is forever changing.
The dragon motif captures Hong Kong's passion to be daring and innovative.
However, some people have said that the dragon symbol fails to represent Hong Kong and that it looks more like a phoenix than a dragon.
