    Does anyone know what is the area like around the Grang Hyatt Hotel
in Grand Central?  i.e. is it safe to go out and walk around the Hotel
after dark?  Also, how is the bus system from there to those tourist
attractions?  i.e. is it safe to ride the bus after dark?

This is highly interesting!  Are you a native born Australian Chinese?  The
Australian accent puts emphasis on a different syllable of each word, as
opposed to British or American English.  Here is an example of "2 negatives

A few notes:

1.   One of the major bookstore is missed out.  It's SWINDON located
     in _Ocean_Center_ (Tsim Sha Tsui).  There is some books which
     cannot be found in others.  But WATCH OUT --- be careful of the
     price.  I once found a book costs $970 while others sell for $160.

2.   As a CU student, I personally suggest you not to consider SWINDON
     of CU, unless you are looking for manuals for commercial softwares.

3.   The bookstore I favour most is CAVES (Dung Wong).

This is my first posting directly from Hong Kong.  My co. has just
updated a mailing system that somehow we have limited access to
the newsgroups.  Fortunately I am able to access s.c.hk.
If somenetters are with this newsgroup more than a year ago, you may
be able to recognize me since I occassionally post to this net.

I only read a very few posts so far, but from the subject
headings, it seems that most topics are not interesting at all.
No flame intended!

Yes, HK has changed a lot in many area.  People there have better education,
they are much richer than before, there are lot more expensive cars running 
around, lot more air-conditioned double deck buses, lot more fency buildings
shooting up each year, a lot more noisier, hotter, and the air there is lot
more polluted.   But it seems to me that its only the people there have never
changed.  They are just as rude and greedy as they were 10 or 20 years ago.  
This really makes daily live difficult for those honest citizens.

In terms of a strong second party to challenge CCP, there is already
one (need more hint?). But why limit to "protect the middle class"? 
I'm afraid if you think in this way, you have fallen into the trap
of "class struggle" already. Besides, "middle class," for whatever
your def. is, may not represent the majority in China.

I believe that things will change rapidly once the "old guards"
pass away. Actually, as a ruling force (I'm talking about the
old guards, not CCP), its passing away is already in progress.

I think we should put the list of bookstores in Hong Kong in FAQ.
The bookstores I have in my mind are:

1. Hon Wing Bookstore, Mong Kok.
2. World Bookstore, Mong Kok.
3. ?? Bookstore, in a Building 2/F in Mong Kok, near Ho Wah Bookstore.
4. Bookcenter, Central.
5. "Sun Chung" (I forgot the original English name), Tsim Shai Tsui.
6. Man Yuen, Nathan Road, near Gold Harvest Cinema
7. Others?...

Anybody has any other bookstores?
The price of the books I bought from these places is about three or
four times CHEAPER than that of the same editions of the books in US!
Believe it or not!

Date: 15 Sep 92 17:45:38 GMT
Organization: Purdue University Engineering Computer Network

Hi there,

	I don't know where to ask ...

	Do you know in what kind of places I can buy nylon strings?
Nylon strings are those used to make 'hairy balls' for cheerleading
in say an atheletic meet.  You can readily buy some in HK in any
supermarket.

	Currently I need some to do some outdoor fixes and I prefer
them to ordinary strings because they are tougher.  They are handy 
also for packing things into carton boxes for moving or travel.

	I went to K-Mart and Wal-Mart but they don't carry any nylon
strings.  It's strange that things as simple as nylon strings can be
a collector's item in this advanced country.

	Also along the same thread, I asked several Americans if they
know where I can buy a pencil case because I lost mine.  None of them
knows what a pencil case is.  Finally my roomate was able to find one
in St. Louis some time ago.
