I also remember news reports of large numbers of construction workers who disappeared (killed by accident???) during the contruction of the airport -- which is too large and will be a financial burden to Hong Kong for many years.

Is it ?? You mean foreign workers ?? What accident ??

Have you noticed that the majority of the gov't officials in Hong Kong are women?

I thought it shows the feminist side of Hong Kong people.

The legacy of the Brits.

Legacy...I doubt it. People just don't show any respect to the Royal family anymore. As Diana once put it....it is a
"f*cking family"...

And then there was that time when the HKSAR felt the need to go in a buy up more than 10% of all the Hong Kong blue chip stocks to thwart the activities of the Quantum fund. So much for the "free market".

I don't see any problem with that, as long as it has saved the overall market and its people from being crushed by major professional players around the world.

And talk about technology -- Hong Kong has no room to build high-tech factories. Land is just too expensive. Hong Kong will never be a tech leader, and whatever use it has now is fading fast.

No doubt about it... it is not a place for technology. Period. Maybe for tourism.
