Then can someone explain how come hong kong has one of the longest life expectancy in the world???
Longest life expectancy my @$$

Proof positive of the propagandist poop fed by the government that they wish the HKG public would swallow en masse. Looks like they've already got one hooked.

So we may have the highest per capita number of centenarians. Here's the real kicker. That means they were born 100 years ago. That also means they didn't have to subject any major organs to the pea soup we have 2/3 of the year right now, for much of their lives. Not exactly rocket science. And neither are the statistics which point out the exponential rise in juvenile respiratory ailments in the last ten years.

The apathy the political leadership has for the status quo is, to say the least, a disgrace by any standard. Still though, I agree with the point made that people should come out here and see for themselves what a cesspool this place has become rather than have us tell potential newcomers about it. I mean, who are we to have an opinion about where we live? The nerve of some ppl...or people.
