Nurie Vitachi has written a fine book about the Hong Kong people. One very curious thing about young h.k. girls and boys too, is that they are furiously talking to somebody or other on the mobile even while walking on the road. Does it mean that they have to do some long talks with somebody at home just 5 minutes after leaving their house? The whole city is so small and the public transport is so good one would reach anywhere within 10 minutes. Where is the need for a chat with somebody you took leave of only 10 minutes ago? A colleague of mine used to say that , the old-fashioned man that I am,I am unable to see that they have boy friends to talk to.  ¶ 7:04 AM
