It was a small demonstration--only about 35 people-- because there is other pressing local stuff (district council elections) going on. Still, I'm proud to see my friends from the Socialist movement in Hong Kong stepping out for Occupy Wall Street.

Hong Kong, the Wall Street of Asia, has an income equality even higher than that of the US. (In fact, it is the largest income disparity in the world). The march ran from HSBC headquarters to the US Consulate. There will be more. Meanwhile, if you want to say "Occupy Wall Street" to your Chinese friends it goes like this:?? ???

Awesome, MsExPat! I've placed it (in simplified characters) in my instant messenger status line for my friends on the Mainland.

Thanks! And kudos to your friends! (And to you, for sharing their efforts.)
