While the Chinese government is more like a scary authoritarian father who would force you to go wash your hands to prevent avian flu and then print a newspaper report about how it was a seamless success, or the Australian government which is like a drunk uncle, the Hong Kong government just has a passive aggressive way of leaving nagging signs everywhere to tell you how to live.
For example, 'Be careful when you seek summer employment!'
'Be careful you don't get the flu!' There's another sign i see on the train that says something like 'eat well, get adequate sleep and rest.'
'Be careful you don't get the flu!' There's another sign i see on the train that says something like 'eat well, get adequate sleep and rest.'
It seems the main aim is to instil a constant sense of fear in people. Terrible things are lurking everywhere...bird flu, drugs, bad summer jobs, china etc

Wow, I wonder what the rate of OCD is? Lots of obsessive hand washers, I would imagine. Those signs are awesome.
Flea, I think you have now clearly cemented the title of "Dan's most Waysian friend".
I'm not sure how Henry will feel about that (he probably won't care). Oh well.
Cool posts - that looked like a great climb.
