“Incoming international travelers must submit a pre-flight vaccination certificate, as well as a negative PCR test and rapid antigen test, before entering.
Once they’ve been permitted to enter, visitors are required to undergo a three-day self-monitoring period, during which time they’re prohibited from eating in restaurants or visiting bars.
Visitors also need to complete PCR tests on days 2, 4 and 6 after arrival, and a rapid antigen test every day for seven days.”
No Thanks to all of that!
Wish I still had my Matchbox collection from the 60s. Also my all-steel Tonka trucks.
Might be worth some coin today, or at least nostalgia.
Back in the day when I lived in Japan and worked for Mitsubishi, one of the well traveled guys in the company gave me a sound piece of advice: On these short-term business assignments, go to your local market, buy a two liter bottle of water and drink only from that while you are away unless you are willing to drink the local alcohol or Coca-Cola products instead. They are world famous for using safe water and even sell bottled water in some countries.
That advice served me well and the only time I almost got in trouble for it was when a Saudi customs agent gave it a good looking over. He finally scowled and put it back in my luggage when I invited him to open and sniff.
Hell, I want to play with them again.
LOL, it was fun. :)
Funny story, my favorite one was a 1978 Trans Am.
When I was 21, I bought a 1978 Trans Am.
One Way tickets?
No thanks. Asians tend to be mask Nazis and Hong Kong combines two of the worst characteristics of the Chinese: greed and law and order fetishism.
If I had a favorite Matchbox, it was probably the Alvis Stalwart. Never owned a real one, though.
Too bad they don’t offer 500,000 airline tickets to residents wanting to escape
I’m not too certain they are sold to civilians. :)
ChiComs will lock you in jail for saying the wrong thing.
It’s a tarp.
People should not go to illegally occupied Hong Kong.
I just checked; there’s an outfit in the UK that appears to sell them as surplus. Prices aren’t too bad but I’ll bet they don’t offer free delivery.
Dude, get one.
You can be King during the Zombie Apocalypse.
My last visit of many was in May, 2019 - just as the anti-government protests (the ones directly responsible for China initiating the COVID pandemic) were beginning. Hong Kong still felt very international then, though it had been trending authoritarian in previous years. I’m afraid today it would feel like visiting any other Chinese city.
No Thanks to all of that!
I bet you have to wear a stupid cloth mask too!
Soon as I win the Powerball.
