Hong Kong


HK Junk

Arrived in Hong Kong early this week for some work assignment. It is summer but there has been some frequent thunderstorms most days, and on Friday a Level 8 typhoon warning was raised. This means everyone had to go home within 2 hours as the transport system will be shut down. But it came to nothing as the wind decided to do a u-turn.

Transportation system is quite efficient and I love the Octopus card. You can use it for all forms of transport and pay for various other stuff in 7-11 shops, cafes, cinemas etc. And uploading value is also a breeze. Our Touch N Go card can learn something from them.........
