Right now this is the real problem in Hong Kong in terms of housing, so is up to the government to build more low income dwellings for the very poor. The roof top shanty abodes has no place in a city that's rich in cash.
The total consideration for sale and purchase agreements in October was...
I think he mentioned he was born in Australia in one of his post. Not that I care if he didn't put China down constantly.
Here is the picture of Chungking Mansion where most South Asian live in Hong Kong now a days. It's considered a slum but is not too shabby though. Most Indians move to...
He's worst than a real life 章家敦 because Chang makes money from his work but this guy just hate China from the bottom of his heart. Everyone of his posts shows that however he wants to hide it.

That only shows China is not a kind of country who glorifies its war efforts, win or lose, with its neighbors. No text books or even much media writings talk about the war. Let bygone be bygone, the next generations would have easier time to mend their relationships.

I have to tell you one thing though: I'm glad I'm not a Viet otherwise, the way you're shamelessly selling your countrymen, I wouldn't know where I can hide my face. I wonder how some of your proud compatriots like 5star and...
