Shouldn't the British be grateful being able to live in Hong Kong in such a safe city

Where is safe?

Having learnt about poisonous gecko urine and lawnmowers falling from 16th floor flats I had decided to move back to the UK to be safe and now I found out that since I left last year it has become a murderer's play pen. My this website is frightening, where should I live to be safe?

I live in the U.S. and just came back from London. I just did a quick check and found no knife or bullet wounds. Wow, what a narrow escape! Thanks for the laugh. And quit giving journalists a bad name. We can earn it on our own.

Anyone should be happy to live in any cool city, there are tons of great cities and HK seems to be one of them.

In every country you can find good people and bad people, nice areas and running down area. If you are happy with where you are then that’s all counted.

I think the message from Reporter was a windup email, I would just ignore it.

Laughing_Monkey, I am quite surprised you were reacting so badly and so uncool. I read through the message again and again, I think it was trying to misleading people, but nothing really personal. So why were you so angry?

I am not being racist, but a lot of English people can be quite judgemental and opinionated too AND having a good laugh by insulting people as you guys call it as sense of humours. The email nothing worse than the way you would normal insult ‘Non-English’ people. – so don’t see why u should be angry.

E,g.
1. Welsh people are sheep shaggers
2, Chinese people = Chinky, sweet and sour
3. Indian/ Pakistani = Paki
4. German women are hairy
5. American are thick
6. Over 3 millions people live on leaking boats in Hong Kong
7. Chinese people can only do take away, asian people can only do corner shops
8. a lot a lot more racist jokes about each nation, Eastern European, OZ, Black, whoever non english then you would like to insult them


Can’t we all be nice

er hello....

of course there is crime in the UK, as in any other country. Like being in HK, being in certain areas increases your chances of crime. I'm British but dont feel its an unsafe place. And no, carrying knives is not the norm everywhere.

Dont change your plans of moving there - go, see the place, experience the history and culture - make your own mind up.
