Hello John, I had just sent the following e-mail to a friend:

"I would say (a) Hong Kong is very relaxing these days, as most business trips are cancelled, and (b) many majority of retail/restaurant places are empty. We are taking all the precautions (masks, washing hands constantly, exercise, eat right, drinking lots of water), but I feel the whole thing has been blown out of proportion by the media.

They have attached a scarry sounding name to a variety of flu, and managed to scare all into a state of existence that is fitting of the time of the great plague.

The SARS event/process will of course further pulverize the HK economy and financial market in a 'shock and awe' manner, and I think it will help to set the markets lower, allowing the previously built-up excesses to clear faster.

Many businesses that rents real estate and many landlords will go under unless events clear up fast."


Chugs, Jay
