Hong Kongers Sing “Locust World” Harassing Mainland Tourists

Hong Kongers Sing “Locust World” Harassing Mainland Tourists

Postby StirFry » Sat Feb 04, 2012 8:31 pm

@刘超-怒放: Right now in Hong Kong, people are singing “Locust World” when encountering mainlanders on the street, especially against those tourists who are buying luxury bags and cosmetics, and has already become harassment. Recommend everyone avoid going to Hong Kong for shopping these few months. Just 3 months, and they will definitely beg the “locusts” to return. Let these people who are trying to ruin [the relationship between China and Hong Kong] know the importance of “locusts”. Please forward.

Written by a small-minded moron. That particular HKer has a lot of nerve, and so do those who verbally abuse PRC shoppers in HK. They criticize the mainland shoppers for doing exactly what some of their fellow HKers have done in other countries. The criticisms they now hurl at the Mainland Chinese shopping in HK sound remarkably like the complaints voiced by the native-born residents in Canadian cities - caucasian and Canadian-Chinese - when the first big wave of wealthy HKers fled to Toronto and Vancouver in the run-up to the 1997 handover of HK to the PRC.

Hong Kongers complaining about the manners of Mainland Chinese. They should start at home in HK, where there are plenty of examples of bad behaviour. Oh, the tyranny of small differences. :roll:

He could be mentally disabled, or he could just be ugly... If only mentally disabled Chinese poo in the street, then there are a helluvalot of mentally disabled people in China.

At least he did it off the sidewalk. In Shanghai, it's done right in the middle of it.

^You should read some of the comments made by HKers on China Smack, it really turns your stomach.

Since the early days of colonialism, HKers always considered themselves to be a class above Mainlanders, so in that regards, it's nothing really new.

But it really peeves you off to know that there are such strong ingrained hatred/class mentality for Mainlanders.

Well at least the mainlanders and the HongKongers have something in common, bigoted hatred.

In regards to mainlanders self-centered existence and insistence on acting in backward ways, I'm waiting to see more videos posted like this and the subway eating one a few weeks back from all over the world. Already, in some Asian countries visited by the Chinese, separate eating areas have been designated for the Chinese away from the local diners at restaurants because of the lack of table manners on the part of the Chinese. Yelling at the top of your lungs, burping, chewing with your mouth open, and spitting on the table are things that humans just don't do in civilize places. Chinese have to learn that 4000 years of 'civilization' doesn't mean you are civilized.

On one hand HK people want more mainland people to consume as much as possible in HK. On the other hand, they want everyone visiting HK can behave as per their standard. Thinking about how do Shanghainese see Waidi people, how New york guy see Texas man, you will know some HK people are the fusses.

Right. HK is greedy for the money not for the Beverly Hillbillies carrying it.But when in HongKong, mainlanders are to abide by HK rules, not their own. And lets face it, 99% of Chinese mainlanders are wadiren regardless of where they live in China...

I saw an incident in Tokyo once where a mainland Chinese tourist got in the train. She sat in the disabled people's section where mobile phones are forbidden to be turned on. Talking on them are banned throughout the train (a rule badly needed here). She proceeded to talk loudly in Chinese while sitting next to horrified Japanese seniors worried their pacemakers would pop. Some younger adults on the train got up and told the woman to get off the train. To which she proceeded to yell and curse the evil Japanese. Eventually it was her stop and she got off after answer another call loudly yelling "Wei. Wei Wei". I'm sure everyone on the train was cursing the stupid woman under their breath though their faces revealed nothing.

I have civilized Shanghai friends that speak fluent Japanese and of course act exactly like Japanese people while in Japan. These people give China a good face while those like the woman above give China a bad one.

I agree to the law rule must be followed, but for the habit, whatever good or bad, is difficult to change, not to mention only tour for several days. I know many Expat in this forum changed their daily habit after coming to China, e.g. wear slipper indoor, but it must have been after a long time.So have more toleration to the guests especially when their tours are taking employment oppotunity to you.

So...how long does it take to say...kick one bad habit like spitting?

Please do not spit 1983.jpg

"Please do not spit freely--Spitting freely is neither hygienic nor civilised"

This is from 1983, so maybe Chinese need another 30 years. That ought to do it, yup!

Or maybe not...

Because back in the 19 frikken 20's Sun Yatsen had this to say

During the early years of the Republic, many reformist thinkers tried to fathom why Chinese were not respected by foreigners. One of these thinkers was Sun Yatsen, who was convinced that "competent governance of the body's natural functions" was a "necessary condition for competent government". As long as Chinese were "lacking in personal culture", they would not be respected. Sun and others called for an end to the practice of growing fingernails to an unseemly length, they advocated regular brushing of the teeth, criticised the practice of farting at will, and tried to educate the people that hawking and spitting was simply "not done". Keeping oneself tidy became part of a new style of personal self-management that was considered essential to show the world that the Chinese people had woken up.

And then along came Mao and his Army of Degenerates and proclaimed that anyone who had more manners than a semi-retarded peasant was a "class enemy" of the people.
Just look at how people in their 50's and older act here. They are not "class enemies", in fact, they have no class at all. It such a pity that these Mao's degenerates are the ones raising all the kids you see. Seems Mao's dream of a no class society may last forever...
