Older Brother is going to Hong Kong

[Legend]

My older brother is being forced to go to Hong Kong alone for 2 months on business. Im not thrilled with the fact he is going. I have always looked after him my entire life. He is the closest thing i have to an actually friend. I would give my life for him to live. Thats the kind of relationship we have. I remember one time he got into a fight with a kid at school, he got hurt big time. The next day i walked up to the kid and choked him out in front of the whole cafe. I actually thought i killed the kid.

Im concerned with him going to China. I dont even know what to do, i dont want him to end up hurt or something happening to him. His gf doesnt seem to even care to much about the fact. I am concerned for his safety while staying there.

Any tips you know of that i can give him? I would really appreciate different inputs. I would go just so he's not solo in a new place, but i cant due to the fact im at college. He isnt a tough male and is a very weak phyiscally.

Regards,

John

Is your brother's business in Hong Kong a secret underground no-holds-barred ancient fighting tournament known as the Kumite?

No?

I don't think you have anything to worry about. Hong Kong is pretty safe from what I hear.

Apart from the Triads and open robberies and purse snatchers armed with knives and gangs and stuff, its pretty safe.

Its like New York, but with more Asian people.

:crackup: :crackup:


Anyway dude, you can sleep in peace. Hong Kong is not that much of "China" as you perceive it to be. It's pretty much westernized, except few can speak english

I spent 6 months in Hongkong when I was 16, its completely safe.

Hahaha

As for the OP, relax man. Hong Kong isn't that bad, my best friend is over there teaching english right now and he says it's pretty much like any major north american city, except with a white minority / asian majority. He also says people over there are infatuated with american culture, and that an average north american can enjoy some nice status over there especially with the girls. Your bro will have a lot of fun.

Besides, he's your older bro, shouldn't he be the one worried about you?

All western people are seen as being exotic in Asia.
