Less than half of the time the train was to be used.
The authorities of China can manage a joint checkpoint at the station, even in the train. But the debate started on the inauguration of this train. Because for the first time China's law on crime is being implemented in Hong Kong.

Critics say it violates Hong Kong's independence and mini-constitution. The train was inaugurated on Saturday with an event. The government says that this railway communication will expand business trade between Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Guanzhou. The train will be introduced to the common man today from Sunday. At the same time, mainland will be part of the rest of China and increase communication with the capital Beijing.

Meanwhile, pro-democracy lawmakers boycotted the inauguration ceremony. They even protested outside the station. Their point is that this railway link will reduce the legal process of Hong Kong's independence.

Hong Kong was once a British colony. 1997 was handed over to China but with some conditions. Under that agreement, Hong Kong will enjoy high autonomy for autonomy except for foreign and defense issues. It's also for 50 years. What has been done, Hong Kong has its own laws, they are used to protect their rights and freedoms.

And most of the main Chinese laws can not be applied here. With the launch of this new train, Chinese authorities can apply Chinese law to Hong Kong station and train for the first time.

China's top lawmakers say it will not interfere with Hong Kong's autonomy. Meanwhile, the Bar Association of Hong Kong has criticized that it will violate Hong Kong's mini-constitution.

There is more criticism about this railway project that due to the end of the three years late work, the additional cost of 3 billion dollars is over
