Ask garcia1000 about Hong Kong
Hey guys,
Anyone interested in knowing more about Hong Kong and the surrounding Pearl River Delta region? Let me help! About me - I've lived in Hong Kong for most of my life except for when I went to the US for university. I am a local Chinese person and I am familiar with things. I can provide more information about myself if you want, but I would like to keep the focus on the area instead! Hong Kong is a metropolis of approximately 7 million people, around 97% of which are Chinese. It is currently the logistics and financial hub of the PRD region. The PRD includes areas such as Shenzhen, Macau, Dongguan, Zhongshan, Panyu, etc. I know about these areas too if you are interested. Here are the topics regarding Hong Kong that I feel I am qualified to talk about: Economics, finance Business (I know a lot about most industries) Politics (internal and external) Food Culture Tourism General lifestyle These things I am not qualified to talk about: Music Television Art Religion imo |

How have things changed since the Chinese takeover? Do you feel like there's less freedom (economic/political/social) for the average Hong Konger?

Re: Ask garcia1000 about Hong Kong
Also, would you say it's more or less crowded than a big U.S. city like NYC?

New York is to Shed OR as Tokyo/HK are to NYC. HK is the only place i've been to that can approach Tokyo.

Re: Ask garcia1000 about Hong Kong
You have to seriously do your homework and plan your trip. my wife and I have taken 3-4 day trips to tokyo and hk (I work for united, so the cost thing was negligible) and we had a great time at both, but we'd have been completely lost except for the fact that we had her cousin in HK and my cousin in Tokyo as almost 24/7 tour guides.

Re: Ask garcia1000 about Hong Kong
How easy is it to get by if you only know english?
What is the longest tourist visa an American can get? How westernized are the residents of Hong Kong? How are Europeans and Americans regarded by the residents of Hong Kong? How do you refer to the residents of Hong Kong without using the cumbersome phrase 'residents of Hong Kong'? (e.g., Hong Kongians?) |

Re: Ask garcia1000 about Hong Kong
Long shot, but here goes...
You said you know a lot about most industries so - How much demand is there for football coaches in Hong Kong? Could you direct me to anywhere I could find info on this or provide me with some yourself? To clear this up, it's coaching for recreational playing, not professional. |
