China's dispute with neighboring countries over South China Sea

How to solve a problem
I apply the following approach to solve a problem:
1. Look at the problem holistically.
2. Break the problem down into distinct parts
3. Identify the parts that can be solved, based on past knowledge and experience.
4. Carry out trial on the other parts and find the possible solution
5. Put them together.
I am usually able to find a complete solution to the problem.
This is how I solve a tangram puzzle as well.
It worked perfectly.
I can solve a difficult tangram puzzle using this approach.

Investing in China stocks in Hong Kong
Someone asked me.
If he buys China stocks in Hong Kong, it will be paid in HKD which is pegged to pegged to USD. If USD falls in the future, would it affect the stocks that are in HKD? Is it better to invest in China stocks in Shanghai in CNY which is likely to be stronger than USD?
