In Stellarium 0.10.5 for Windows, the location is more or less correct (see the attached screenshot), only the coordinates are slightly different.

This software is great! However, the name of Hong Kong in this software is totally wrong!!! No one in Hong Kong use the Mandarin romanization "Xianggang" as the name!!! All of the Hong Kong people and the rest of world use Hong Kong as the official and only English name!!!!!! Please correct this as soon as possible. Since we cannot search Hong Kong as a Hong Kong citizen.

Sorry, some more errors I find.

"Jiulong" is wrong, "Kowloon" is the correct one.
"Tuanmun" is wrong, "Tuen Mun" is the correct one.
"Yuanlong" is wrong, "Yuen Long" is the correct one.
"Quanwan" is wrong, "Tsuen Wan" is the correct one.
"Aomen" is wrong, "Macau" is the correct one.

Hope that you can correct this together. Thanks a lot!!!!!!!
