Moneyminded, Interesting commentary on Hong Kong's Nepali diaspora. Yours is a generalised comment obviously but I too have heard something to that effect. New places, new cultures, new trends - all part of the evolution I suppose. Or is it happening becuase people have more time visiting those glittering watering holes - the likes of PUSSY CAT & NEPTUNE - in and around the infamous Wanchai? I wonder. Would love to visit HK one of these days - want to see what has become of the place where I spent a good chunk of my early years in the military. I miss the food more than anything - forget the weekend revelries down town - those hot bowls of Wan Ton soups and plateful of sizzling steamed fish which went terribly well with especial fried rice while you sit out in the open in one of those busy thoroughfares in Mongkok and Fanling. The sea-food and choi sam. Oh well. This is for Virginkt - good luck with whatever you have set out to achieve. You might as well end up entering your name in the Guiness Book of World Records. You'll never know. Hey, Queen Elizabeth 1st is reputed to have died a virgin. There you go! Therein lies your incentive! Carpe diem
