Not in the HK I live in. Every time I go out Wow, then you must belong one of those "fastest walkers" ... :> I guess I also belong to the "fast walkers", since I always feel that people are block my way, and there are just too many people on the pavement. BTW which part of HK are you referring to? |onto the street, it's filled with thousands of people who can't decide what |direction to walk in. Sometimes they stop dead with no warning, and |sometimes they sway from side to side so you can't pass. Usually I have to |walk in the road, because the pavement is too frustrating! :) | |And yes, HK is a generally rude city. I don't mind, since no-one means |anything by it most of the time, and you get used to it after a while. This is sad for HKers. This means that they never know what politeness is ...
