...Perhaps, you may simply ignore the letter

Yes, that's easy. But what if I am traveling through Hong Kong someday and later find out that I have violated some laws (tax-related)? I have no clue what the consequences would be. I made a special effort to pay my taxes in full before I left so that I would not have any problems. However, I guess I would react the same way if informed by the IRS (US tax collector) that I owed taxes that I was not previously aware of. Of course I understand the US laws much better and can resolve such problems much easier.

You know, I seem to recall that spitting on the sidewalk in Hong Kong was subject to a fine (same as in Singapore). But many people did it anyways in Hong Kong, as well as smoking inside public buildings. I never saw anyone get a fine for smoking or spitting, yet so many people did it.
