These are the snopshot taken at noon, see that road is wide and have a busy traffic, still you can see a lot of jaywalks! 1. When you are in a restaurant, once you have put down your fork and knife, the waiters may fetch them way immediately...without asking your permission! The rents in Hong Kong is too expensive.
2. Husband calls some one "Ma Mi," loudly in public, and not atonished to see his so called Ma Mi is too young to be his mother... She is his wife actually? Why?
Probably he is too shy to call some one "Darling" "Sweetheart" or " Lo Por " in Cantonese...
Same case for a Wife calling her husband "Dei Di"! I do not find it elsewhere outside Hong Kong!
Funny!
PS- according to RTHK radio chatting on this topic last week, probably 33% of HK people is having this habbit! As a comment from by Rebecca
3. When you go to Any fast food shop Like Maxim, Cafe de Coral or Fairwood, it is not strange to see two persons occupying a table of four, and when you ask them are the two other seat occupied, not surprise to expect an answer "yes, occupied!"
4. Never feel strange that 30% of Hong Kong Man never wash his hands after visiting rest room!
And there are at least 15% of the people did not wipe off the water after washing hand.
And at least 10% of the man used the back side of the uniform or toursers to dry his washed hand! I do not know the same practice is valid for women on Hong Kong... Can some one tell me about that>
5. 40% of the passengers are half sleeping on a morning train, typical Hong Kong People have not sleep enoughat all.... Especially Monday.
6. When you are on a elevator, make sure you are leaned on the right side leaving soem room for people to move on your left, no matter the elevator is decending or asending!
I can tell you that I ahve never meet these people on Tai Mo Shan, what a complex characters of the Peopl of Hong Kong...
7. When People are leaving a lift while the door is satill open, you are advised to leave the door as fast as you can as some one in the lift is pressing the (DC) switch desparately!
8. In The morning, people are so nerviourly pressing the button while waiting for the lift to come down... Even the light is On indicating that the lift controller has received your trigger signal, I have seen a man pressing the button more than ten consecutive stroke!
9. I hardly can see people saying "Good Morning " when we meet in the office ... nodding his head is already a very decent action that he shows his respect to you...Even though you

Hello Paul,
以下是一段節錄自網上討論區的對話,都是香港的特色:
"My sister in law said that Tefal 高速煲 fm Germeny is the bestest 設計 good, 方便 and 安全."
回應第二點:上星期有電台節目剛好談論這個話題.我發現周遭的朋友有三分之二會以這樣的方式去稱呼另一半.我想大概是”傳染病”吧!又或許是家庭的重點已經不再是浪漫的二人世界,而是轉移到兒女身上吧!
我的丈夫可以每天給我一個新稱號,最動聽的是"小美人",最不喜歡的是"小肥豬".
某次我給他一個封號,脫口時一定要快而準"下流賤格卑鄙無恥自私獨食難肥咸濕鬼"他樂透了.

Hi Rebecca, 2/3 is a lot!!What programme was that as I spent a lot of time listening to the RTHK Radio.
Paul
Hi Paul,
那個節目是香港電台第二台早上十時至下午一時的"風show快活人".很多時候他們的話題都取材自報章.
Rebecca
Hi Paul,
我要補充:三份之二這數值是來自我認識的親戚朋友.那節目提醒大家不要稱呼自己的伴侶"Daddy" &"Mami".
Rebecca
Hi , Great heros think the same!
Paul
