Hong Kong Tips
By PEPPERMINT | 12/14/2004 11:58:48 AM
Travelers entering Hong Kong from Mainland China may find there are differences between the two areas.
To enter Hong Kong, Valid passport is a must but visas are not necessary for some countries. Try to find this out before your departure.
CNY can be uses in Hong Kong also. So if you have some extra CNY with you, you don't have to exchange it back to dollars or what's so ever, then exchange it again to HKD.
Better to carry identification certificate or document with you.
Different from Mainland China, tap water here is drinkable.
Work Hours of Government are from 9a.m to 5mfrom Monday to Friday and 9a.m to 1p.m on Saturday. This is different from 5-day system in Mainland China.
Toilets are free of charge. No smoking in public transportation vehicles and certain public places.
Time zone (GMT+8) and voltage (220V) are the same as in Mainland China.

Buyer Beware
By CATHERIN | 3/31/2004 2:42:37 PM
In Hong Kong and I'm know there are alot of stores like this but this one is the worst yet. Union Digital World in Kowloon on the corner of Chatham Road South and Cameron. Went in there to see if I could get a deal on a sony camera. I sure got a deal. This guy Toni tries the old bait an switch but with a lessor prodct. Tried to sell me a counterfeit Fuji A310 for DOUBLE the retail price. After doing a little more looking, I niticed alot of the products were that way and some damaged or defective. SO BUYER BEWARE. KNow what your looking for before you go in. Or if your in for a good laugh, stop in and say hi to Tony or Bee for me.
