I won't leave Asia without stopping by HK. Promise you!

We lack the pretence of seriousness the Anglo-Saxon lot has.

We know how it is and we state it. We live like it is. Anglo-Saxon, on the other hand, know how it is but are afraid of stating it. Hence, they don't live like it is.

Resuming: The king is naked, we say it, and live our lives without denying that. It must be tough to be Anglo-Saxon.

Look to a guy like Kofi Anan: Usually, World Bank, UN, you know institutions like those, would be run by a guy whose only assets were an accent and a yellow tie. A job taylor made for an Anglo-Saxon on his fifties.

But if a African, like Kofi Anan puts the tie, elaborate in his accent, he can get the job. That because it would be frowned upon if we have lots of types like World Banks' Wolphensons and such guys.

Hey where you would have an Anglo-Saxon writing like that.
