Image description

A member of Scotland's Blackwatch regiment is framed by the barbed wire fence that protects Hong Kong from China, as he stands by a Union Jack flag at the Nam Hang lookout post May 14. Several border posts, on hills high above China's sprawling city of Shenzhen, are manned around the clock to spot the hundreds of illegal immigrants per week that try to make Hong Kong their home. The blackwatch are the final British regiment to be stationed in Hong Kong and will take part in handover ceremonies on June 30. HONGKONG
