UBS' annual city-by-city survey shows Hongkongers work an average of 2,606 hours per year. That's almost 600 hours more than Tokyoites (2,055 hours a year); Parisians, on the other end of the scale, get 1,002 more hours per year with their loved ones than we do. Let's concede that the legal and financial industries are some of the... https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1878114/work-life-balance-hongkongers-its-time-go-home?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1878114/work-life-balance-hongkongers-its-time-go-home?utm_source=rss_feed Sat, 14 Nov 2015 14:34:32 +0000 In Hong Kong, we are as laissez faire about our public etiquette as we are about our tycoon economics. It's not that we are any more rude than citizens of other cities, but we do less when others are ill-mannered in public. People stream into MTR carriages before exiting passengers alight as a matter of routine; bumping into someone on the street is unremarkable; vans that block bus routes while offloading goods go unconfronted. In Hong Kong, infractions that might incite a mob to violence in... https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1849150/its-time-publicly-shame-hongkongers-behaving-badly?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1849150/its-time-publicly-shame-hongkongers-behaving-badly?utm_source=rss_feed Fri, 14 Aug 2015 23:00:45 +0000 Failing to plan is planning to fail, so they say. But is Hong Kong taking that saying too far? Between Mers (Middle East respiratory syndrome) and our electoral-reform process, how many press statements, quarantine notices and police overtime slips have been issued this month? How much money has been spent paving the road to nowhere? Like a toddler already swotting for a school entrance interview, we have become overprepared. And I'm not being hyperbolic; in April the BBC reported on a... https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1826358/hypercautious-hong-kong-perils-being-overprepared?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1826358/hypercautious-hong-kong-perils-being-overprepared?utm_source=rss_feed Sat, 27 Jun 2015 14:10:50 +0000 Hong Kong hems you in. Tall buildings loom over narrow pavements; long work hours keep us cooped up in cramped cubicles; and the police herd us through makeshift pens during public holidays. But one of the biggest barriers to our freedom of movement, and also the most unnecessary, is the pavement railing; that galling metal barrier that so often forces us to walk five minutes in the wrong direction. One of Hong Kong's great assets is its walkability. We may have small apartments but our... https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1723750/why-so-many-barriers-hong-kongs-pavements?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1723750/why-so-many-barriers-hong-kongs-pavements?utm_source=rss_feed Sat, 28 Feb 2015 14:51:18 +0000 I have always hated the Hong Kong umbrella - on sunny days, its spokes have poked at my eyes on busy streets; during downpours the cheap brollies of passers-by have whacked me without remorse. The poor umbrella etiquette in Hong Kong had dented my faith in my fellow citizens. But last Sunday on Connaught Road, as protesters held back tear gas with nothing but those same umbrellas, faith in my fellow man was restored. When the police resorted to riot-control tactics to disperse peaceful... https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1607589/rant-umbrella-revelation?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1607589/rant-umbrella-revelation?utm_source=rss_feed Sat, 04 Oct 2014 14:09:35 +0000
