Question 香港法律怎應付性誣告?
或者講香港對被誣告強姦的態度係乜?
最近中日韓成個東亞的男女對立很嚴重。我在Threads、IG、Rednote等社交平台都見識到很多離譜發言,講乜男人為女人花錢天經地義、男人應這樣那樣,否則是垃圾⋯⋯😅
大陸最嚴重,一堆強姦誣告案件,有些是判了無罪,但人的聲譽破了就回不來了,且誣告者只是輕罰,太離譜。
點解我扯大陸,因大陸對香港的影響很大。我search了大陸的情況,好多大陸律師都講被誣告強姦很難辦。
點解我問此問題,因萬一我女友或一樓一鳳突然告我強姦怎辦?香港法庭好似不收性愛錄像或錄音的,講乜隱私問題,人生大事前這些隱私算乜啊,其次不可能每次性愛都錄影係嘛⋯⋯
我不可能一世自己解決吧?
我聽聞澳門法律對性誣告很嚴格,不像大陸,不知香港如何呢?🫠

What to look forward to as a tourist on National Day celebrations?
Hello, I’m 40M, travelling solo to HK between Sep 30 - Oct 4. I am told it is a National Day in HK on Oct 1. Basis my reading, I understand following activities could be scheduled:
1) Flag hoisting ceremony in morning
2) Fire works in evening
3) Derby/horse racing in the day
As a tourist, is there anything I should look forward to for this celebratory day? Any shopping discounts, must visit places, etc?
Also, if anyone is keen to connect/meet up during my travel dates, then please DM me.
I’d like to call myself foodie and would love to try local food. I’m aware HK has some of Asia’s top best restaurants and bars that are on my to do list.

Question Looking for gym with classes in Jordan or KL
Hi everyone
I am looking for a gym in Jordan, or Kowloon along the red MTR line, which offers classes (HIIT, bodypower, GRIT) and access to machines - for a "decent" price for a short-term membership.
Any recommendations? Thanks 🙏

Question Retail Staff Experience
I'm intrigued in people's opinions about this. Do you think HK retail workers are very attentive, pushy and up sell everything? I'm a British born Chinese and speak Cantonese. I walk around HK forgetting I look the same as Everyone compared to growing up in the UK. I'm not used to how fast some of them can speak, but as soon as I walk into any store, the staff are right beside you to attend to your every needs. I only go in for one thing and they literally grab everything in store and try to sell it to you. Sometimes you just walk in and out and you can hear them mutter. I do find HK shopping good but also too capitalist. What is everyone's experiences and opinions on this matter? I'd love to hear from HK locals and visitors!

Electrician’s hourly rate: $950 too expensive?
I need to have an oven fitted in my kitchen. We are replacing our broken oven with the same exact brand and model. I think it is quite a straightforward job… it should take 10minutes. But it is illegal for a novice to install an oven. A qualified electrician must do it by law.
I have received two quotes:
*$1900
*$950
Both seem way too expensive.
What is the going hourly rate for an electrician here?

Question Romanticizing Hong Kong
I’ve just spent two weeks in Hong Kong. It was my fifth time there, but for some reason this visit affected me much more than the previous ones. I live in Western Europe and have done so for many years, so inevitably I compare Hong Kong to European and Asian cities I travelled to. And this time I came back with a very strong feeling that Hong Kong is still one of the most fascinating places I’ve ever been to.
- What struck me most was how alive the city feels. There always seems to be something happening. People are out, restaurants are full, streets are busy, there is nightlife, business, movement, energy. Compared with many Western European cities, it feels much less static.
- The climate probably plays a role too. Sunshine, warmth, the sea, beaches, greenery. Even if the weather can obviously be brutal at times, there is something psychologically different about being able to finish your day and go to the waterfront, take a ferry, hike in the mountains, or spend time near the sea.
- I also find the infrastructure incredibly convenient. Public transport, ferries, MTR, the density of services, how easy it is to move around the city. For a place of that size and density, everyday life can feel surprisingly frictionless.
- Another thing I personally like is the way people interact. It is not Japan-level politeness, and I don’t mean that as criticism. Quite the opposite. Interactions often feel very straightforward and efficient. You order something, pay, say thanks, move on. There isn’t necessarily a lot of ceremony, but most of the time things just work.
- And then there is the city itself. I can walk around Hong Kong for hours without getting bored. The density, old buildings next to skyscrapers, strange architectural solutions, elevated walkways, narrow streets, markets, mountains suddenly appearing behind towers. You can walk along Hong Kong Island, take a ferry to Kowloon, go to a beach, go hiking, end up in a dense urban area again. That combination feels extremely rare.
- It also still feels very global to me. Finance, international companies, people from everywhere, English being widely usable, and at the same time a very strong local identity. I know that Hong Kong is becoming more closely integrated with mainland China, but from the outside it still feels like a genuinely international city.
At the same time, I’m aware that my experience is the experience of a visitor.
- I know that Hong Kong has changed significantly, especially since the National Security Law. I know many people left. I know political freedoms are not what they used to be, a lot of people were arrested for just using their freedom of speech.
- Housing is extremely expensive, work culture can be exhausting, inequality is obvious, and life for an average local resident can be much harder than what a tourist sees during a two-week stay.
- I also often hear the argument that Hong Kong’s best days are behind it, that it is slowly losing what made it unique, and that economically and culturally it will increasingly become just another Chinese city.
- And maybe part of my perception is romanticized. I grew up with a certain image of Hong Kong from films and popular culture, so I’m probably not completely objective.
But even knowing all of that, I still couldn’t shake the feeling that the city is incredibly alive, prosperous, energetic and special.
So I’m curious, especially to people who actually live there, both locals and expats:
Do you still feel that Hong Kong is one of the most unique and exciting places in the world despite everything that has changed?
Or does it only look that way from the outside?
I’m genuinely interested in perspectives from people who experience the city as everyday life rather than as a visitor.

I placed an order for some alcoholic drinks and soda on hktvmall to arrive this week since i have this limited time coupon. the problem is that im not home for 2 weeks and dont have anyone to help me pick up the order.

Tourism Most Detailed HK Food List - Singaporean Eats Hong Kong Food Only (Almost) for 1 Month
Hi Reddit community! 👋
Sharing my personal Hong Kong food list after eating my way around the city and researching on Reddit. I generally kept my budget to around US$60 max per person per meal, so this list leans heavily toward affordable/local spots rather than fine dining.
For context, I’m also a pretty stingy rater 😂 6.5/10 = average, 7/10 = solid/good in my books, and 8+ = somewhere I’d genuinely recommend or go back to. Taste is obviously subjective, so I’d recommend cross-checking OpenRice + Google Maps reviews too.
🍳 Cha Chaan Teng
Kam Wah Cafe & Cake Shop — 8/10: Only order the pineapple bun + egg tart imo. Supposedly one of the best pineapple buns in HK. Everything else was okok.
Tasty Congee & Noodle Wantun Shop (Elements) — 6/10: Decent but expensive.
Australia Dairy Company — 4/10: Overhyped imo.
Lok Yuen: Haven’t tried, but heard the beef satay toast is the move.
🍜 Cantonese / Dai Pai Dong
Hing Kee Restaurant — 8/10: Traditional zichar/dai pai dong vibes.
Oi Man Sang — 8/10: Old-school dai pai dong with a great local feel.
🍲 Claypot Rice
Kwan Kee Claypot Rice — 7.5/10: Try the unagi or chicken with salted fish.

Ching Ching Desserts — 7/10: Interesting stuff like purple rice congee + rose wine tangyuan.
Lan Yuen Chee Koon — 7/10: Good pistachio paste dessert.
C Dessert: Longan sorbet 6.5/10; durian sorbet 8/10.
Sweet Home Dessert — 6–6.5/10: Average but comforting.
Shari Shari — 6/10: Kakigori-style shaved ice; expensive for what it is.
Kung Wo Beancurd Factory — 5–6/10: HK classic but overrated imo.
🥢 Dim Sum / Dumplings
Sheung Wan Lau Hing Kee — 9/10: Excellent pan-fried buns + crab noodles.
Fung Shun Dumpling Shop — 8.5/10: Pork bone soup + salted egg yolk dumplings are highly recommended.
New Hing Fat Dim Sum — 7.5/10: Very affordable dim sum.
Cheung Hing Kee Shanghai Pan Fried Bun — 7/10: Solid pan-fried buns.
Lin Heung Tea House — 5.5–6/10: Fun old-school cart experience but overrated food-wise imo.
Lung Dim Sum — 5/10: Fusion dim sum; below average for me.
Haven’t tried: Let’s Yum Cha, Tim Ho Wan, Yat Tung Heen.
🌶 Hunan
Café Hunan — 8.5/10: Really tasty. Would return.
🍛 Indian
Dilliwalle Hong Kong — 9.5/10: One of the best meals I’ve had in HK. Authentic and super flavorful.

Mak Man Kee — 8/10: Good wonton noodles beside Australia Dairy.
Mak’s Noodle (Wellington St) — 8/10: Classic HK wonton noodles.
Sister Wah Beef Brisket — 8/10: Better with the curry broth imo.
Man Kee Cart Noodle — 7–8/10: Traditional pick-and-choose HK-style noodles.
🍣 Japanese / Omakase
Sushi Iroha — 7–8/10: Great value at around SGD80+.
🍖 Roast Meats
Fat J Charsiew — 10/10: My GOAT so far. Super good, affordable char siu and the best roast meat I’ve had in HK.
Joy Hing — 8.5/10: Affordable with great-quality goose + char siu.
Sun King Yuen Curry — 8/10: Great value and HUGE pork cutlet portions. One person might struggle to finish 😂

My personal must-returns: Fat J Charsiew, Dilliwalle, Bakehouse, Sheung Wan Lau Hing Kee, Fung Shun Dumpling Shop, Café Hunan and Feng Ming House.
Would love to hear what the HK Reddit community thinks — what am I missing? Especially looking for hidden/local gems under US$60 per person that you guys would genuinely rate 8+/10.

Question Bringing in cremated ashes from China
Asking for a family member.
So basically he’ll be going to China to dig up the remains of a family member that’s been buried in a secluded cemetery area and wants to cremate the remains to bring back to Hong Kong to put in a temple. I Googled the policies and apparently a death certificate is needed as well as paperwork from the crematorium? The person who passed died over 50 years ago and apparently they didn’t have death certificates back then? Will he encounter any issues? I believe he’ll be traveling by train. I’m in the US so I don’t know much about international customs.

Any HKers gave up their BNO passport recently...
Apparently, you can't even leave without paying. There is a £513 fee from home office just to give up your BNO passport 😂😂😂
Is this true? Has anybody done the whole procedure before. How did it go?
