		<description><![CDATA[Tonight&#8217;s the night for Hong Kong&#8217;s lights Out&#8221; campaign to focus attention on the deteriorating air quality in Hong Kong. Not everyone is participating, though. Chief Executive Donald Tsang has opted out because he says it &#8220;could give adverse publicity to Hong Kong&#8230;&#8221; This means the Symphony of Lights will go on as usual at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, July 1, was the 9th anniversary of the British hand-over of Hong Kong to the Chinese government. It was marked by two very different celebrations. In the morning, 40,000 people showed up at Hong Kong Stadium for free festivities organized by the Hong Kong Government to celebrate the hand-over. Needless to say, noise abatement [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At the risk of sounding less than humble, I noticed in today&#8217;s South China Morning Post that there has been verification of what I wrote in two of my recent postings. One headline stated, &#8220;Hong Kong the world champion at sport of shopping.&#8221; The article went on to point out that an ACNielson study found [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a follow-up to yesterday&#8217;s posting, I noticed in today&#8217;s South China Morning Post that much of Hong Kong&#8217;s polution is blown down the Pearl River Delta from Foshan. Foshan is the home of hundreds of ceramic, cement and furniture factories spewing stuff into the atmosphere. There is little enforcement of the already weak air-quality [...]]]></description>

Hong Kong&#8217;s Victoria Park is the only place on Chinese soil where candles are lit every year in memory of the hundreds that were killed that night. Victoria Park, June 4, 2006 The organizers estimated that 44,000 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wish I could say I was surprised when the Antiquities Advisory Board, in a closed door meeting, voted to demolish the colonial-era, Bauhaus style Central Market. Instead, in an act of supreme foolishness, they recommended that detailed photos of it be taken for display in the future. Even though the architects on the board [...]]]></description>

Was this a group of young, hip, funky musicians and their rowdy, beer-soaked fans? No. These musicians are well into senior status [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Continued from yesterday: I wanted to take an extra day to think some more about the implications of what the government is trying to do with its so-called &#8220;anti-racism bill. It certainly isn&#8217;t to wipe out racism as anyone with dark skin who has tried to rent a flat will attest. Nor does the government [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Calling a law that requires employers to justify what they are offering to overseas employees an &#8220;anti-racism&#8221; law has me confused. Anything that benefits one race over another is by definition racist. The proposed law would not allow an employer to offer generous benefits such as housing, education, etc. unless they can prove that such [...]]]></description>
