A couple of shouts.

A couple of funny/interesting things that happened this week that I would like to share....

1) The Bank of China issued 2 million commemorative notes in Hong Kong in order to celebrate the 100th anniversary of BOC. And people went up for grabs like crazy. The lines were crazy, people line up for 10 hours to buy the notes. The 2nd hand prices were super crazy too. It was sold at HKD150 from the banks and it was valued at around RMB800 in the market. Wohoo....good profit here...it made me felt like buying too. They call those "middle-men" trying to make profits the "yellow-cow"s. LOL.

2) There's this interesting ceremony called the "borrow money from guan-yim" ceremony which happened on Fri, 17th Feb. People starting queuing up since the night before at places that are near to guan yim temples, including the football court just beside the building I live in, and the queue was there all day long...as in it was still there when I came back from work at 8pm. It's amazing to see how Hong Kong people are so into this tradition ....I guess it "works" in some way and that's why people are still following it.

3) The debate. Most Malaysian Chinese would know what I'm talking about hehe. Yeah....and facebook is truly "scary"....photos and videos and pages and sites and comments and more sharing are everyone within just a couple of hours after the debate. And the focus of the debate would be lady of MCA Selayang, and now better known as the parking lady, or "kak tunda" in Malay. Hmm...and you could look the whole debate if you're interested.
