copy watch problem has gotten a lot worse in HK
The sellers seem to have gotten much more aggressive during the economic downturn. The worst spot is lower Nathan road where they yell at you until you say something back to them. I am a photographer and I thought about doing a multimedia essay on it, recording them and showing photos of them. I made several recordings. But the sound quality of my "concealed mike" setup was the problem. Oh well. If anyone else wants to try it with a better mike set up, it might draw attention to the problem. The police seem to be busy with bigger and more serious problems. Either that or they just see it as something that has always been there. I never talked to the police about it.

"prostitution is on the rise in Denmark"
Hi Fernando I am a Danish citicen, and also living in Denmark after some years abroad. The sex tourism has increased a little in Denmark, but not much(has always been a issue, since the late 60's) . And again mainly in the country-border areas close to Sw...
Nothing implied.
Hi Hans, It wasn't my intention to highlight the sex industry in Denmark or draw attention to it but just an off- the- cuff analogy to humorize the statement made by the poster of this thread.Thank you for your brief insight and clarification of the matte...
No harm done ;-)
Hi Fernando No harm done. Denmark is (unfortunately) well known for its brothels and sexual freedom since the late 60s. Thats just how it is. But actually I believe, the only sex museum in the world, the Museum Erotica in Copenhagen closed some Month back...
flagship stores in HK and rep dealers are abundant
Yeah, I visited a lot of hte shops selling the genuine article, including the new flagship "mall' which is very impressive. When they saw me going in and out of shops and then not buying anything. It's like AH HAH. He can't afford it and they pounce.
The worst is some people believe it is a proof of intelligence to wear a rolex without
paying the price for one. I was confronted with this attitude quite a lot of times. Especially in Spain ( Catalunya, to be more precise) where I spend quite a lot of time, where it seems normal to wear a fake. One of my engineers got caught in Paris Charl...
