Hong Kong banks



Countless and diversified banks in Hong Kong, is one of the most impressive things to me after my arrival. Maybe for majority of Chinese people, the most familiar bank is the Bank of China. Even in our text book, the China Bank Tower is the symbol of Hong Kong. But here, I found not at all...

First, the most popular bank is HSBC or Heng Sheng Bank. It obviously can be judged at the lunch time. The banks of HSBC or Heng Sheng are crowed with customers, while efficiently and well-organized. At the same time in the business hall of BoC, i can only see several old couples or people from mainland. Anyway, that's good for me, i enjoy low human density even seldom did i in mainland...

Second, lots of international people still trust mostly in Citibank, or equally, I heard it is good for discount when you really do some spending. Well, maybe that's not the point... but the point is, I really appreciate the free and healthy economic system in Hong Kong. Also, not official tone, I admire the wisdom of Mr. Deng Xiao Ping, who composed the one nation, two systems.

That's true, it is like stay with different people, you have to have your own opinion, but what's more, you have to respect other's different opinions. Tolerance is a virtue for human beings.
