Hi guys
I have a hongkong premium domain. My fear is now, that china government will one day shut down the hong kong domain ending.
What do you think? Are my fears justified?

It could be a risk as seen in the example below, but depends on what kinda premium you're talking about, for example HongKong (dot) com or .hk, especially for the exact match I would be worried about, but I'm not a lawyer, so this is just my opinion based on the articles below.

France.com UDRP: French government won’t surrender domain

The previous owner tried to regain the domain from the country France, but the French government (French State) defended French.com successfully, years after taking control of it via a series of actions to defend its national identity and brand.
