Hong kong s.a.r意思

"Hong Kong S.A.R." stands for "Hong Kong Special Administrative Region." This term is used to refer to Hong Kong after its handover from the United Kingdom to China in 1997. Under the "One Country, Two Systems" principle, Hong Kong was granted a high degree of autonomy in all matters except foreign affairs and defense. The S.A.R. status allows Hong Kong to have its own government, legal system, and economic policies, although it is still considered part of China.
