Welcome to Hong Kong
6 Oct 2010 - A lot has been said after the "Bus Auntie" incident - tour guide Li Hau-chun caught on video scolding her mainland tourist group for not shopping enough. But the story does not end there. Last week Taiwanese tourists visited a pharmacy in Tsim Sha Tsui, where they pay for a jar of ointment with a HKD 100 note. When the staff returns HKD 32, they wonder whether they have been conned. The group visits several other pharmacies and discover that the ointment is sold for around HKD 25. Two days later, they return to the pharmacy and ask for a refund. The staff refuses and throws items at them. One of the tourists films the whole saga on video and uploads it to YouTube. It is another bad example of the greedy mentality of Hong Kong folks. The video causes an outrage in Taiwan.
