Sure there are. Tibet isn’t a global financial and commercial hub with a history deeply rooted in the west.
China hasn’t forgotten the brutal economic sanctions and political isolation it faced in the wake of Tiananmen Square back in ‘89. A similar event in HK would certainly result in sanctions, which a struggling Chinese economy can’t handle.
The contrast between political fallout from an HK crackdown vs Tibet is vast, they aren’t very comparable situations.
