Michael Rogge on Hong Kong for Dutch television
Alas, all in Dutch, explaining how I left Holland in 1949 for six years stay in HK to return in 1955. My father died one year later. Whilst alive he was delighted to see the films I sent home from Hong Kong (broadcast 7 oct. 2007). See playlist: www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A08F26F648CE6143
