I'v just come back from Macau a week ago,
about the english friendly question - out side of the hotel the people know ZERO english, not even basic words. (like telepone)

i found that in hong kong (as well as other countries), if you compliment some very basic english with hand gestures (and a smile helps too), most people will be able to help you out. it also helps to be choosy about who you ask, like generally people ages 18-25 or whatever are gonna have the highest chance of having learned english in school/be in university. also dudes in business suits that arent really old are pretty reliable for speaking english.
of course most people will just end up spending 99% of the time in the casino anyway, where it wont matter, but thats just fwiw.
