Experiences And Impressions Of Hong Kong
Horton Presley, former Ottawa University professor, recounts teaching at Hong Kong Baptist College since August. He describes language, faculty meetings in Chinese, a humorous belt mishap at a welcoming ceremony, cab chaos and piracy, price shocks in land and rents, and vibrant markets with diverse foods and crowded shops. He notes pollution in nearby bays, open-air markets, and the need to adjust to local customs and prices.
