Is there active linux user group in HK? The webpage works only in chinese, all other links are broken as of this moment and there seems to be no activity there after May 2007. Any other groups of nerds.

We have not done a geeks night in ages. Perhaps in the first or second week of Jan when people return?

Yes, the groups are all Chinese and often have the same people in. There's an office room in SSP too as I stumbled upon it once.

And there are various Linux companies around HK, a lot based around embedded systems.

Many training centres offer LPI certification too, and it can be seen around education centres like this not too speedy "Super Computer":

As to special events around Hong Kong I often hear about them after they have happened:

Thanks. Lot of links and information. Any of these where a non-chinese speaker will fit in?
