    Live somewhere in the New Territories away from the urban areas. Selfishly speaking, where we live, we are never disturbed, and there are two MTR lines and two major highways for buses via all three cross-harbour tunnels to reach Kowloon and Central for work, and it's not often that all the routes are down due to protest activity. But there is the overhead of increased commuting time, of course.

    Hong Kong has a much better location. It is in the middle of Asia! However, even before the protests, the city has been on a massive decline at a faster rate than other cities in Asia. It is also sensitive to Chinese money.... be it in the form of retail consumption or money laundering to inflate real assets.

    Food in Hong Kong I would rate as below mediocre. And even lower considering the price to value.

    KL is a totally different city. More chilled out and less developed. If you don't care about money, you will get a better quality of life. Food will be slightly better, but price to value will be significantly improved.

    I would pick KL over HK. Ten years ago, it would be the other way around.

    shri, Karinaa and Tadashi like this.
