China,Japan and Hong Kong

Throughout this project i'm going to have to look at Chinese culture as well as Hong Kong because of its inevitable link with China both in the past and now since the re-unification.
Ive also been looking into the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong between  1941-1945.
It was a grim time for the people of Hong Kong who faced starvation, execution and disease under the oppressive regime of Imperial Japan.

Scenes like this were common place,you could be executed for carrying Hong Kong dollars (which were made illegal)
The battle for Hong Kong was a particularly ferocious battle, perhaps it could be a setting for later in the project dealing with character designs or a graphic novel. Its something to keep in mind.
