The most annoying f'ing problem for me has been brits and americans (especially them!) who think they need to talk slowly to, or complement asians about their ability to speak English.

Why always the nost ANNOYING part of the things,,,why not the most ENJOYING ONES:

1. Food sharing
2. Beautiful Islands close by
3. Street Markets
4. Low Taxes
5. Right in the middle of asia..easy to visit other places
6. HK triad movies
7. Few but sill nice temples
8. The tram and the Star Ferry
9. Fashion Chinese ladies !!!
10. Annoying expats complaining all the time when they finally make 5 times the salary they would earn in their own country....I actually enjoy listening to them complaining :-)))

...and the list goes on.........

I know and I really appreciated all these as I was born in Hong Kong. I'm a local girl. I feel very lucky to be here.
