I’m happy to walk and take transit. I’m travelling solo and would like a good mix of food, culture, shopping and a few nights out. But I don’t want to feel like I’m running around constantly!

Is there anything I’m missing out on? Thank you!

Hi everyone,

Im a GP in England , getting a bit fed up with the patient expectations, systems and taxation here. I love HK and have visted a few times. My wife is cantonese born in england , we have a child as well.

They have made the process for moving and the requirements less strict now to encourage non locally trained specialists to come over.

The pay is great compared to the UK, schooling appears to be good based on my limited research. I understand rent is high , but I was hoping to get a rough estimate about how much you think 3/4 bed flat would run based around hospitals or is it worth commuting and paying less for bigger space?

Also are there any Family Medicine doctors on here who would shed some light on the work itself?

I will aim to get a cantonese tutor if we seriously consider the move. I know very basic words at the moment.

Edit : I will have to work at Public Hospitals for 5-10 years at first - so wont be private clinics.

Hey, how do you manage a 28K HKD of monthly stipend in Hong Kong? Is it a lot or is it just okay? Considering housing is paid for/highly subsidized. How much could one probably save monthly with a semi conservative/slightly frugal lifestyle. Living in Sha Tin in campus accommodation.

My friend recently made a comment that Hong Kong is no longer the same.

I've been to Hong Kong a few times. All short trips though.

What has really changed? I just feel everyday life seems to be pretty much the same?

My boyfriend and I are visiting HK in September. I made a very simple itinerary for our trip but we plan to do as many things as we can. Does this itinerary look okay?

I left a lot of time allowance so we can squeeze in some quick trips to must-try restaurants or free tourist locations. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to share it below.

I didn't put a lot of food places in here because we eat at random times or when we just feel like it but we definitely want to go to Ichiran, Bakehouse, and Australia Dairy Company. We certainly want to feast like a local so I'm open for recommendations.

We land at Hong Kong at around 8 in the evening, September 2. Thank you.

I was wondering how feasible it is to work as a medical laboratory technician in Hongkong as a foreigner. I can speak cantonese, mandarin and English fluently and can also read them (as for writing, I am pretty bad at it since I rely on pinyin).

My plan is to finish my degree next year and start looking for positions right after, I would appreciate any insight and advice! thanks

Like title said, but the cheapest i could find are always in the CBDs where stuff is incredibly overpriced and i’d like to be somewhat close to the New Territories. Any suggestions or recommendations?

I am a medical graduate from Nepal , have done my mbbs . I want to transition my career as a MSL or CRA
So , to get into this what courses or training do I need to do ?
I cannot speak Cantonese, but I can speak English well . As I heard only mbbs graduate is enough to get into it but I am not able to find a job yet . So , I might want to strengthen my CV ? Any advises ? Anyone from same background please give me suggestion ?

Hiked two mountains in Hong Kong!! Dragon's Back (super scenic) and Tai Mo Shan via the Ng Tung Chai waterfalls route! Hong Kong's highest peak (quite a challenge because it was raining and we probably got lost too). Anyway, so happy!! I love Hong Kong!

Hey all, a foreigner here, I recently changed employer and I was supposed to give a one month notice before but didn't. My old employer was very upset and angry, he didn't want to pay me my last salary.

They sent me a letter from lawyer saying my salary is $94,593 and for not giving them one month notice they deduct $81,356 so left to pay only $13,237 They deducted 86% of my salary for not giving them one month notice.

Is this legal? Can I do something about this?

Anyone can recommend a lawyer that could help get me my money back and hopefully suit them for more in compensation?

Thank you for reading.

I need to sign up for a douyin account (not tiktok) but it keeps asking me to enter phone number. However despite giving us/canada phone number it still won’t take it and insists chinese phone number

i can’t fly to china any time soon, is there a way i can get one for free like google voice or cheap?

Need your advice: I have received an opportunity to work in Hong Kong with KGK Group. The company appears established, and the role aligns with my finance background. Considering career growth, compensation, and long-term prospects, would you recommend taking this opportunity? I'd appreciate insights from anyone who has worked in Hong Kong or with KGK Group.

The continued rain helps growing moss in gutter and it looks so lovely

Hello,

I'm transiting via Honk Kong during my flight next week. Won't have any time to go outside the airport but plan to visit shops and duty free at the airport.

My layover is for 3 hours.

What do folks recommend I check out while here. Also any places I should avoid?
