hi, i think the more important issues at hand are the visa entries and time frame for that.... clarify with both sides. If i am not wrong, malaysians need visa to enter CHina (shenzhen leg). There is a question of the key focus of your visit there. social aspects? cultural? economic? There are travel agents who can help to tailor the trip and advise you on the management of time and places to visit. For HK, you can visit their tourist promotion official site. As for shenzhen, its basically their theme parks which are really nice. Alternatively, write to your counterparts in HK and Shenzhen, (they have depts which deal with foreign requests.) i suppose you are workign with them closely for the trip.... they will be able to let you know whether there is any time available outside the formal schedule to allocate time for some sightseeing.

Transportation in Hong Kong?

Transportation in Hong Kong?
I am an exchange student in Hong Kong, new to the area. My new host family is probably in Discovery Bay, Lantau Island. My school is in Stanley (south HK island.) If someone who is familiar with the HK transportation system could help answer me, thank you so much. It is tough being in a new country all alone. How would I get to school? What's the fastest way? I already know that they are far from each other.. >_< Thanks!

The fastest way is to take D Bay's ferry to Central and from there, take the No. 6 bus from the bus terminal which will take you all the way to Stanley. D Bay's ferry offers a monthly pass which is cheaper than buying the fare twice daily. If you can catch both the ferry and the bus in time, it should take you around an hour to get to your school. The No 6 bus ride has one of the best views in HK, riding pass the most luxurious houses and apartments including the residences of the US Consul-General in HK and the richest Chinese on earth, Mr Li Ka Shing. D Bay is a very unique residential area spread across a S W portion of the Lantau Island, the biggest island of the 200+ islands in HK. D Bay is owned by a private developer who literally build up the entire area from barren. It has its own reservoir, golf course, club house and shopping centre, restaurants and a private beach. Cars from the city cannot enter into the area which makes it very private and exclusive. Check www.DiscoverHongKong.com and enjoy your stay!

Any ideas for an extra-curricular acitivity class? They are primary students in Hong Kong?

Any ideas for an extra-curricular acitivity class? They are primary students in Hong Kong?
We are to meet on every friday for 1.5 hours to do some activities in English. I can choose the level grades that I would like to recruit for the class. The main problem is that the students' english level is too poor to understand complicated instructions in English. Also they are not suitable to do any exciting activities as they are too hyper and too hard to control.... please help..

Well, maybe you can try to talk to them slowly and use more sign/ body language. Hong Kong students should be rather friendly, I believe. Since it is pretty hard for them to get to school and the school fees are rather expensive, they will surely try to be good. Maybe you can use Mahjong or something like that that has something to do in their daily lives for them to learn the shapes and numbers of that particular tile. You can also make English classes more interesting with the help off softwares. You can too let them listen to nice English songs and explain it to them slowly. This applies to English movies too. Just make sure the movies funny. Be confident and don't lose hope.

Can I use a US-bought Xbox 360 in Hong Kong perfectly fine?

Can I use a US-bought Xbox 360 in Hong Kong perfectly fine?
I am a college student in the US, but I go back to Hong Kong every few months. Would there be any issues in using my Xbox 360 in both of these two countries, provided I buy all the games from the US?

Apart from the power plug and possibly the online play, I don't see why it wouldn't work. Although i'm not sure whether the Hong Kong Tv's read on a different frequency. PAL, PAL-B/G, NTSC etc. to the US tv's. That may or may not affect the xbox though
