		<description><![CDATA[I know Cantonese(粵語) is the most widely spoken language in Hong Kong.
Many Hong Kong people speak Cantonese as their first language.
Then what is Hong Kong people's second language?
Is it English or Mandarin(Putonghua普通話)?
Which language do Hong Kong people generally speak better?

		<description><![CDATA[The reason that Mandarin became a national language has to do with the political power vested in the Northerners and that the capital is at Beijing.
