笑贫不笑娼.

Last word should be this chinese character.

This is a chinese saying, not unique to cantonese though.

Sad state of affairs.

Just yada-ing 

Safe ride

Cheers

i think this is the biggest failure of ccp. since hk take over already 20 years, they stick to the 1 country 2 system, but fail to replace the education system to be pro china. instead allow pro western forces to grow inside and influence the youth and explode today .

i think either they fail to foresee this, or got other plot behind. 

HK want to 自主, China happily let it run by itself.

五十年不变。

Let you make your own mistakes, then you call father and mother. Nyuck nyuck.

The Hong Kong social structure crack and ultimately collapse. Internally fail, no need to spend on demolishing costs.

成也风云, 败也风云。

Thank you teochew man. Me the hybrid hokkian and teochew. 

Aiyah, somebody in HK govt has to be the bad person, the one with the Tianmen LP forever bad name, rooks like designated Car Lam.

Warn explicitly to responsible parents to leash their dearest. highlight a date machiam 十五杀人月, copy the Thai tonner method. Of course, 锦衣卫 already visited the media first.

I would think it's karma at work too.

The collective society of HK is now facing the brunt of the many societal problems which already existed for years, none of which had been addressed and solved. 

Take for example the infamous housing issue in HK. HK is many times the size of SG and yet, the HK govt failed time and time again to provide good public housing for it's citizens in an adequate and timely manner. When the govt tried to procure some land to build public housing, the move was blocked by environmental NGOs. Then again, the govt itself is no angel as it depended on selling land to rich private developers (the tycoons and fresh inflow of Chinese capital) to buff up it's coffers.

That resulted in super expensive housing which further divided the society and add the stress and pressure faced by the regular HKers. It's no wonder that these kids see no hope nor future in their society as they know they need spend a lifetime paying off even a basic need such as accommodation. And most of the time the quality is shit compared to HDB in SG. 

Rent seeking mentality and real estate speculation have already been ingrained from the previous generations. The situation was worsened when the rich Chinese came in. So perhaps it's right to say that their pioneer and merdeka generation of political leaders and citizens have screwed up, kicking the can further down the road to these kids.

you have to understand, SG is lucky ... most of the land is FLAT ...

HK most of the land is mountain ! housing all concentrated at the sides 

in order to build housing ... they need to flatten a lot of area including major deforestation

HK no have $9.2B  (HKD$52B) tax collected every year from car owner like SG ... must find money to "cover the hole" right
