Shopping in Hong Kong?

Shopping in Hong Kong?
Hi everyone, I am going on a field trip to Hong Kong with my class. I went to mainland in '08 - Beijing, Shanghai, and Suzhou. Is the shopping in Hong Kong similar to mainland as far as the street markets. Pearls and fake purses were a steal, and I am hoping to get some more good deals. Are goods in HK more expensive? I should add that shopping is not my main interest for going there. I am an accounting student, so most of the trip will be visiting businesses operating in HK and sightseeing/experiencing the culture. :) Are there large pearl markets like on the mainland? Where I can negotiate prices?

i was born there,amazing place. cheap clothes but i wouldnt live there for long,the buildings will ruin your eye sight,because there so close. but yeah, id say its a good place to buy stuff cheap but not cheaper then the mainland i guess,depending on where you bought the stuff oh! you gotta try the McDonalds xD i remember it being so much nicer there :3
2 :
its great most stuff are pretty cheap aswell =]
3 :
just like china ther eare plenty of fake stuff. if you really want nice stuff. you should go to causeway bay. they have some of the cutest stuff there.
4 :
Fake purse are "a steal". Possession of counterfeit merchandise is illegal. You may be arrested by Hong Kong Police, Hong Kong Customs, or the Customs authorities of your home country. Don't be a crooked monkey. Buy legitimate products.
5 :
hk is much more commercial than china. most of the "markets" have been setup for tourists. they have cracked down alot on fake stuff so it's not as easy to find as in china. most people go to hk for brand name shopping. since there is no import duty it is cheaper than most places in the world.
6 :
Fake items are few in sight but are still available, you might see more of those unbranded or less known brands on street markets. Branded / Signature items cost less than in other countries and way cheaper if on sale. October has to be the sale-month of HK i think.

Here are a couple of guides that should help you out in Hong Kong http://www.iluv.hk/living-in-hong-kong/guides The site also has a lot of other stuff on Hong Kong. Definitely worth a check out. http://www.iluv.hk

hong kong police force?


hong kong police force?
well im 16 and i live in uk since i was born. I am born half chinese and speak ok-ish cantonese but some words i just dont know. i have hong kong identity cards and everything and can live there. But i am not a clever student, i am studying gcse atm and i think/know i am going to fail, what i want to know is, is there any way to get into the police without gcse's? i mean like could i get in by just common sense, general knowledge and not by academically? i am dumb academically but quite clever in terms of thinking thing in general if you know what i mean and i will work hard if i like it/interested. I have always wanted to join police or be a pilot. I am also death/half death in one ear. Will that affect my chance? thanks

Following is the Hong Kong Police Application Requirement link. It states under Police Constable that "without the minimum required Chinese language proficiency standard may also apply for the post." But your biggest obstacle for now is you must have lived in Hong Kong for 7 years which makes perfect sense. You don't want to be asking a British policeman who knows nothing about what's going on locally. http://www.police.gov.hk/ppp_en/15_recruit/er.html
