Hong Kong s fourth wave of coronavirus brings tide of racism Theodora Yu and Shibani Mahtani, The Washington Post Feb. 11, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail HONG KONG - A man of Nepali descent said he was denied a job after an employer saw his complexion. A woman said people recoiled from her in an elevator, apparently disgusted. A child was turned away from a school that cited a preference for locals. Racism, especially against South Asians, is not a new phenomenon in Hong Kong, whose population is 92% ethnic Chinese. But a wave of incidents during the pandemic - including comments from an official who suggested minorities were spreading the coronavirus - is bringing prejudice into sharp relief in this city of astronomical housing prices and extreme inequality.
