    Quite a thoughtful letter from the air traffic controllers... many of them have called in sick today.

    the traffic, flights, mtr , etc. already severely disrupted then AFTER the fact 2IC asks Hong konger's to reconsider strike action, WTF, does he even read the news, can he really be that dumb? sadly it seems the answer must YES.

    Though to be fair other Asian markets are down nearly as much.

    I left for work about 30 mins before. MTR shuttle bus seems doing good so far on Nathan road.

    And it's not like the weak HK economy and US China Trade war aren't the real contributing factors. It's begun. It's time.

    Anyone been at the airport? I'm expecting someone arriving this afternoon. Wonder if they'll be able to get their bags.

    It's a BEAUTIFUL day not to be in the office! Slightly cooler temperatures. As if the weather is behind the city, cheering us on.

    MTR is gradually getting back on track.
