What is ZiiTrend?
Would Hong Kong win any Olympic medals at the 2008 Olympics?

Hong Kong SAR has participated in several Olympics. As a territory that does not have a well-funded and respected amateur sports program (just look at how the government turfed the training facilities just to provide a venue to host the Olympics), it traditionally has all kinds of trouble competing at the highest level.

But medals have been won before. Lee Lai-Shang in sailing has won a gold medal, the first ever by a Hong Kong athlete, and the pair of table-tennis players have won silver in 2004.

With that in light, do you think any Hong Kong athletes will be on the podium at this year's Beijing Olympics? If so, what and how many medals would be won?

    I don't even know what events Hong Kong are still competing in, but I somehow feel that they would find a way to get to the podium in some fairly obscure sport... that said, I won't be surprised if they go blank either.

    Sorry to say this. But Hong Kong is not likely to get any medal, maybe one max.
