All About Hong Kong

Home : UnReal HK Diary : January 2006 : 2006-01-17

January 17, 2006 09:12 - Hong Konger or Chinese

According to a recent survey, most secondary (high) school students regard themselves as Hong Kongers instead of Chinese.

The result was based on 2,700 plus students from 53 high schools in Hong Kong. Considering all those negative news and Chinese stunting facts, I myself, would regard myself as a "Hong Konger" instead of a Chinese, a mainlainer.

No offence, my Chinese comrades.

January 17, 2006 09:17 - Professionals Threat

In Hong Kong, professionals are usually stressed and overworked.

For every 10,000 professional, 9 persons would commit suicide, a survey reports. The rate has increased three-fold over the last decade.

Attention has been drawn to the teachers in particular; as two teachers committed suicide early this month.

I know a few teachers who are teaching in primary and secondary schools.

Sometimes, they tell me how stressful and difficult to teach these days. Not only do they perform daily routines, they carry out tasks like, organizing group activities, arranging online teaching curriculum, and participating school events, like swimming gala or athletic meets.

It's glad to hear them resent, sometime. At least they choose to grudge, instead to "sky-dive" (without rubber rope).
