“' Taiwan’s living expenses are not high. It works out to be almost less than half of those in Hong Kong. Transportation and rent are much cheaper than Hong Kong,' said Mr [Alfred] Tang [who elected to become a Taiwan citizen].

"Last year, Taiwan approved nearly 7,500 residency applications from Hong Kong and Macau, up by more than 60% from the previous year.  Many are students, given that the island offers attractive migrant schemes to draw talent from Hong Kong and Macau whereby they can obtain residency if they work for five consecutive years after graduation.
