It is currently an unknown, though The Basic Law (the de facto "Constitution" of Hong Kong) says it will be achieved "gradually" & in an orderly manner. The Central Government of The People's Republic of China has already ruled out the possiblity of granting universal sufferage in 2007/08 elections.
It would possibly be somewhere after 2008. fyi, Mr. Donald Tsang, the incumbent Chief Executive (formerly known as "Governor" during the British rule before the handover in 1997) of Hong Kong (The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region) recently says universal suffrage would be achieved within his life time.
