Hong Kong is China. Hk people are Chinese. think otherwise, and u  are just ignorant and should die cause u are making a HK Chinese, like myself look bad.

They should be banned from Hong Kong. Stricter immigration control please... This puppet HK government is a joke.

[pupusman]

it's simply not a matter of arrogance. a lot of anti-mainland sentiment stems from the way that mainland tourists/immigrants behave in hk. squatting, urinating/defecating in MTR trash cans - stuff like that.

and it's preposterous to think that hkers don't consider themselves chinese - hk is still using traditional characters!

No I think the mainland just went under after the Commies came. You're getting ridiculous...how is changing clothes in the fitting room a western concept in any way? The fact that people should change clothes out of public view is common sense. Ever heard of modesty? You know, one of the many things important to Confucianism? We had changing rooms (or areas) in ancient times too you know. It was I who mentioned politeness and clean streets, and the lack thereof in mainland.

So Hong Kong had a higher class than the mainland before the British took over then? Are you really going to disregard the British influence in HK? I said "western society rules" in response to your use of western society examples - such as changing clothes in the fitting room etc... unless Confucius taught the chinese not to do that... I mentioned nothing about politeness or cleanliness of the streets.

[gariadara]

since when did respecting the public peace, policies, cleanliness of the streets, and general politeness become "western societies rules?" I thought we the Chinese had always prided ourselves as the people of Confucius, and we all know what he taught long before the West ever caught on to being nice to one another.

You unfortunately cannot grasp the simple fact that the mainland is many times larger than hong kong and is not simply a enormous sprawling urban space. There are many rural people in the mainland who have had no need to know of western societies rules. In the larger cities of mainland china there is more civility and respect as you say but even then there is still a large rural aspect in the chinese cities which is not so in hong kong. the opinion of class is invalid due to the size of mainland

If you know even a little bit of Chinese, Chinese, you can actually tell the difference between Mandarin(spoken in most of mainland china, and Cantonese.(spoken in HK) Even the Cantonese speaking mainlander, may have slightly different accent than HK Cantonese.
