It could have been worse. You could have grown up in New Jersey.I grew up in Hong Kong, my dad was a triad and both my parents were heroin addicts. The walled city was a shithole
or HKers are free to travel around the world, even to this dayMy mum is English. They realised they needed to get away from Hong Kong so we came back to England when I was 10.

As a Hong konger do you with it was still part of the UK? I'm semi old enough to remember the protests etc back in 96 (I think when they went back to chiner)I grew up in Hong Kong, my dad was a triad and both my parents were heroin addicts. The walled city was a shithole
It doesn't affect me, I think it should be up to the people who live there. Yes I still have family in Hong Kong although a lot of them moved to Vancouver.As a Hong konger do you with it was still part of the UK?

Do you still have family out that way? Hong Kong is my actual number one destination I want to visit that I've never visited.
The warehouse I lived in wasn't that bad, it was my dad's mechanic shop. The Walled City had tiny flats in squalor - and when I say tiny, I mean a family living in a room less than 100sqft and crime everywhere. Hong Kong had (has?) really high rates of crime anyway and the Walled City was the epitome of that.@Leigh what was worse, the walled city or the warehouses of Vancouver?
You remind me of Donnie yen. He grew up in Boston. His mother is a grandmaster of wing chin or some shit and when he grew up he used to get in fights and trouble. Eventually they moved to Hong Kong to keep him out of trouble.It doesn't affect me, I think it should be up to the people who live there.

To clarify, I didn't live in the Walled City. I lived in Pokfulam (and later Discovery Bay) and went to an English speaking school.
For the record, I was using 'escape' in a different context. His family's situation could have been in any geographical location. When you get so far down a certain path in life it can be extremely difficult to 'escape' from it.people dont "escape hk"
you dont get itHe did.
I think you've said that before.you dont get it
there is no need to "escape" hk
hk people are free to travel anywhere, and to most of the world without needing a visa
I don't think you get it.its like saying someone escaped america
is english your first language ?I don't think you get it.

Much respect to his parents, or whoever... @Leigh seems to be good people.
