Hong Kong, being completely lenient on most subjects, is an ideal location for Chinese immigrants.

Unlike China, Hong Kong maintains a capitalist government, grants more basic rights, and has little to no government intervention. Most immigrants from China travel to Hong Kong to escape the Chinese communist government.

The relationship concerning immigration between Hong Kong and China can be best compared to the United States and Mexico. Chinese immigrants were flooding the already full Hong Kong, an island with a population of over 7 million at a rate of 45,000 immigrants a year. The Hong Kong government soon implemented a safeguard to the immigration system, permitting only 150 Chinese immigrants with family ties daily, entrance to Hong Kong.

Has Taiwan been recognized by United Nations as an independent nation?

No, Taiwan has not been recognized by the United Nations as an independent nation. It did once during China's communist revolution in the 1950s-1960s. However, in 1971, China or "People's Republic of China" gained entry to the United Nations. Thus, "Republic of China" or Taiwan was expelled as a member. Taiwan has been trying to get membership into the United Nations, but since China is insistent that Taiwan is part of China and China is a permanent security council member, they've been vetoing Taiwan's bid for readmission.
