Hong Kong Day 5 Apr 29 2025 video: Introducing our HK contractor

Hong Kong Day 5 Apr 29 2025 video: Introducing our HK contractor, Mr. Mannix Chow, Partner and GM of Yew Man Decoration. They did such an excellent job, the best contractor we met last 20 years! We celebrated with a seafood dinner that come with a 11 pounds Alaska King Crab. 在香港的第五天: 隆重介紹和推薦我們的香港承包商，耀文創意家居訂製的合夥人兼總經理 周柱桂先生。他們替我們做的工程非常出色，我們百份百滿意，是我們過去20年遇到的最好的承包商！我們今晚吃了一頓海鮮大餐慶祝，晚餐還包含一隻11磅重的阿拉斯加帝王蟹.

Today I have some time to walk around our home in Hong Kong. 2 minutes walk from our home is Tsing Yi Park. Tsing Yi Park has 12 tennis courts, a soccer field, a basketball field, a beautiful artificial waterfall, a large lotus pond, a cafe in the park, green trees, birds singing, flowers fragrant, beautiful environment, clean and well-maintained. I couldn't find homeless people (such a disappointment 😅), no drug addicts either (another big disappointment 😅). I start thinking about those luxury homes that cost US$3-6 million in the US could not have such a beautiful front and back garden, and in HK it is free, no property tax in HK (California property tax is 2% of the house value, Hawaii is .75%). 2 minutes walk from the park is the Maritime Square Shopping Center (170 restaurants, shops and theater), on the shopping center 3rd floor is Tsing Yi MTR station. It only cost me HK$2 (30 cents) per ride any where in HK. I have to pay 10-50x more per ride to use the mass transit fares in SF. No wonder 1,000s of Chinese are returning to HK or China’s Greater Bay Area to retire every year.

今天有一點點時間在香港家附近走走，在家往前走二分鐘就是青衣公園，青衣公園有十二個綱球塲，一個足球場，一個籃球塲，有一個美麗的人造瀑布，大型菏花蓮塘，公園內有咖啡廳，綠樹成蔭，鳥語花香，環境優美，地方清潔，保養良好. 找不到一個沒有無家可歸者(眞失望😅)更沒有吸毒者(更失望😅) 心想那些在美國要花3-6百萬美元的豪宅也不可能有一個如此美麗的前後園，而且在香港是免費，我們不用付地稅(加州地稅是房價的2%，夏威夷是.75%). 離開公園向前走二分鐘是青衣城廣場(170 家餐廳、商店和劇院)商塲三樓是青衣地鐵站，我坐地鐵到香港任何一個角落都是港元$2 (30美分). 在美國加州舊金山，我每次搭乘大眾運輸要多付 10 到 50 倍的費用. 難怪每年有成千上萬的中國人返回香港或中國粵港澳大灣區退休.
