It's not that Singapore would but rather that they could.
majority of the people KILLED or forced into suicides by the Red Guards are average folks who had nothing to do with politics! Cultural Revolution was anarchy in large scale.

Like I said, HK's economic importance is diminishing but as of today it is still significant in China's economic growth. Beijing is treading lightly and it needs to do so.

Yes, this much has been made clear, and now we are no longer operating under illusions.
I expect to see a slew of new economic policies from Beijing designed to make it harder to invest in HK and easier to invest in Mainland cities, and the first casualty will be real estate.
Those HKers who have the option would be wise to sell now and move to Mainland.
US can send its entire naval fleet to blockade China tomorrow. So what’s your point? Again, why would Singapore deny mainlanders’ money?

Yes that's true, but still a worthy price to pay to bring Hong Kong in line. I know exactly what happened in CR, ok? LOL You talk to your parents and I talked to mine; I have no idea why you'd think I know less than you.

If the US could forcibly de-list Chinese IPOs from its stock exchanges why is it not a possibility that Singapore, a country firmly in the Western bloc, could do so later?
The US may not send its naval fleet at all, but China still prepares for this possibility. The analogy is the same here.
