Ted,
It seems as if there has been some changes since my last knowledge of the system. I checked the internet today and found an article specifically outlining the new benefits.
One or two points on this are, ...anyone born in HK are entitled to subsidised education and health benefits, ..but they are not at this time ...Free!! Along with ''Right of Abode''
The cost of maternity charges to Chinese non residents is around 6000 to 7000 US Dollars for basic delivery and care. Mainland Chinese, cannot gain a HK visit visa specifically for having a child born in the SAR territory. Tight boarder controls have been maintained since the 1997 change of sovereignty.
So my apologies to you, i was out of date and wrong ...lol!!
David....
