Random Hong Kong Fact (IMHO)
1) MTR Ticket Dispensing Machine only accepts ONE piece of bank-note. The rest you have to pay with coins.
Meaning if your fare is 13.50HKD, and you paid with 10HKD note, the remaining 3.50HKD you have to find coins. The machine won't accept anymore notes.
2) Almost all disneyland crew has English name. (at least the tag says so)
By the end of the day, I only saw one Kiu and one Wing. The rest would be Richard, Anna, Patrick, Keith, Rob etc etc
3) Many times inside the MTR, I realize that there would be at least 1 person schemed through the bystanders walking from a train-to-train but not looking for seats. I can't be sure why but I believe perhaps they are so familiar with it that they wanna get to the train-deck nearest to their desired exit. So that they would walk in the train rather than to walk at the station to fasten up.
4) Perhaps accidents happened before. At the escalators.
All MTR stations and many places emphasizing/reminding you to put your hand at the handrail at the escalators.
5) The roads are so narrow that Taxi can suddenly stops out of nothing at the middle of the road to lift/drop the passengers.
6) Sugar St in Tong Lo Wan, it's full of indonesian.
The sellers are selling indon-based telephone package and I even spotted a menu written in Bahasa yang kita faham. LoL
7) Pepper spray is not allowed in HK airport. Very strict thing as per informed by our AirAsia counter attendant.
8) I rarely able to spot motorcycles on the road of the whole Hong Kong during my stay.
9) Their fashion starts early.
I even saw a pair of primary school cladding in their uniform but with a trendy,bulky handbags.
10) THERE ARE NO PUBLIC TOILET INSIDE THE MTR station. TARAK! EE LEK! MEI YOU! BO!
- I was kinda in the "moment" while I was Tsim Tsa Tsui, thinking there would be toilet in the station but to no avail. End up I gotta tahan until reaching Jordan station, walk outside from the station, across a street, find a random mall, to their 3rd floor to relieve ur "urgency".
11) HK girls really know how to apply make-up appropriately. I cant find any "geisha" during my short trip there. Here in Msia, I can easily find those that "paint their face" thicker than the painter at my construction site painting the wall.
