    Asia is really a happy person that I like a lot, people are super nice, we find beautiful landscapes, the food is really good, it's a different culture with incredible national holidays, a special atmosphere

    Agree with that, unfortunately little of it applies to HK

    When you put your hand over your mouth to filter out the air pollution.

    Sure, but that was not the question

    And you think that's effective.

    Not really:Beautiful Landscape - HK hasFood is good - there is plenty of good food in HKDifferent culture - the culture is different from say UK or France..Special Atmosphere - it has one.The only part is about "happy and nice person" which indeed doesn't really strike me as the top of HK list.

    I think he's telling the truth, I also rarely see an obese person. Maybe most in India but not in SEA and HK.

    20 years ago, I'd agree, and you don't see too many fat old people...but teenagers, and even little kids...I see fat kindergarten kids every day...it's child abuse in my opinion. Some of those fatties are still being pushed in strollers at 5 years... lunchtime and McDonalds is rammed, some kids have McDs for breakfast and lunch.

    It's actually inspired me to shed some kilos and practice what I preach so I can now honestly tell kids that I never eat fast food or drink sodas...It's scary...don't see too many kids smoking, so that's something I guess...I tell my students that they will break me if I ever see them smoking, lol! But it's probably true.
