ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on migrants who moved from Hong Kong (HK) to Taiwan in the late 2000s and early 2010s. It describes how migrants' migration desires have intersected with their 'spatial practices' and the shifting city images of HK. The chapter shows how HK, Taiwan and China have often been entangled in a triangular relationship, one that is enshrined through migration mobility. It examines that migration entails spatial practices of migrants, and migration mobility is a continual search for different types of spaces regarding migrants' aspirations. The chapter focuses on HK migrations to Taiwan. It also focuses on governmental sources for statistical data. It explains the political relations of HK and Taiwan and various migration schemes catering to people from HK. The chapter explores how emigrants are in search of three different kinds of spaces, namely urban living space, political space and an alternative Chinese space.
