but yeah, even HK is sort of heading in that direction... a lot of the cheaper restaurants are filled with locals from China who like to eat while picking their noses and talking so loud you can barely hear yourself...

some of those, if not all, mainlanders can be really rude hey?

Man, i was in that same position a few years back when the only time i could make it back was during my 2 week X-mas holidays...

but staying too long can be too much, as the congestion and busy lifestyle can stress you - kinda like the Tokyo life...

Hahahahahaha, hasn't certain parts of Canada always been kinda like that, in the sense you don't need to speak english to survive... but yeah, even HK is sort of heading in that direction... a lot of the cheaper restaurants are filled with locals from China who like to eat while picking their noses and talking so loud you can barely hear yourself...

wasnt as BAD back around 1996.. dunno bout toronto.. but another place loaded with asians..

and yeah.. some mainlanders are actually okay.. if they dress properly, take a shower and clean themselves up.. sometimes they stink like SHIT.. seriously.. i dont think they take showers on a daily basis.. and dude. in MONG KOK, i saw this dad holding up his daughter and let her piss on the FUCKIN STREET SEWERS. just the street parallel to nathan road.. fuck. again somewhere around mk, this mum holding up a wellcome plastic bag and the kid is pissing in it. i mean, there are tonnes of malls and fast food restaurants with toilets in them... no excuse to piss publicly..

lol

i didn't say i didn't like it - man, i'd live there if possible...

just stating that with some ppl, the 24 hour lifestyle of places like HK and Tokyo can/could be too much... especially if you dig the relaxed Sydney style...

shit, reading this thread... i want to buy some tickets again...

well it's not that bad for me at least. Im really down with the way we do things in Sydney (all relaxed and shit) but then I had no problems getting used to work in HK for 2 mths prior to coming back.

I dont see Naked Pimp having any problems as well

Noob here... so just thought I'd drop a 'wassup' in here...

and to jump right into the discussion, I think the influx of mainland tourists really ballooned when they introduced the Individual Visit Scheme in 2003...

Can't live with em, can't live without em... go figure...

but with them, the place becomes a bit louder and dirtier...

man, i still find it funny that true HKies think lowly of the common mainlander...
true, you see alot of mainlanders acting loud and dirty, but the same can be said for some HKies too...

man, those pictures are pretty explicit... if you were Gillian, Cecillia or Bobo, that's a big crush to your popularity...
Edison, on the other hand, shows how much of a player he is... still, HKies are hating on him...
It's not all his fault -_-"

I feel sorry for Nicholas Tse...
