Actually I know a lot of people who have worked there for extended periods. Have a friend here who grew up in HK. Know another family from there who now live here. The one thing I think HK has that you should brag on is the tax system. I'd like us to copy it. Other than that HK doesn't seem very special. A privileged part of China. Though that privilege will not last forever. Hopefully by then China w/h evolved in HK's direction.

Rudy Maxa did a great travel show (Smart Travels) on Hong Kong this season, and it really does look like a great place to visit. However, I noticed he did not mention the terrible smog that was visible in all outdoor shots. My throat almost hurt just looking at it. Perhaps no worse than LA, I don't really know. Of more interest to me were the places he went outside of the city of which I'd been largely unaware. Some day I'll make it there, I'm sure.
