Sunday November 1 - Day 5

I spent my Sunday doing what any normal tourist would do: Protesting a major international bank who ripped off hundreds of Hong Kong citizens with high risk bonds that were illegal to sell in America. They had no problem selling them to Chinese speaking people who had no idea what they were buying, nor any clue that when the shit hit the fan last year, they’d all be out of their life savings.

* Full disclosure: I am a minuscule share holder in said bank.

Funny, I couldn’t find any news about it in any news network. What’s up with that? Anyways, this is the prime example of Asian naivety. We (especially the locals) are easily fell into baseless persuasion of instant fortune, especially if the persuader is Caucasian. Don’t get me wrong, this is not a racist statement. General Asian population do look highly to Caucasians, a mentality inherited from the colonial era, and also mass media influence (think Hollywood, MTV and porns). Local Asians always think that Caucasians are culturally advance and wealthier. That’s why they treated Caucasian tourist a lil bit nicer, so they can rip them off. Which ironically, the role is reversed here.
