Sadly Jackie has betrayed the people of Hong Kong. In 2009 he stated "I'm not sure if it's good to have freedom or not.". He also said he was "beginning to feel that we Chinese need to be controlled."
If he's that rich and famous then why couldn't he just get his family out of the country?
I mean I know the CCP polices the Chinese diaspora worldwide, but it would at least be somewhat better to be outside their legal jurisdiction...
he was in canada for a while, but he dumped one of his children to fend for herself, and left her in that country.
Yeah just hike over the Himalayas to safety, how hard can it be
Hey if Batman can find Lau in Hong Kong and extradite him we should be able to rescue Jackie Chan.
Last I heard, his parents lived in Canberra.
