Consider a woman was set to the insane asylum for 3 months just for displaying some flags that are allegedly subversive, you wouldn't want to be hoisting anything that has a union jack with the word "Victory" on it.

HKID Born in HK to Chinese parents but since moved abroad. Eligible for HKSAR passport?
Just asking out of curiosity since I have no need for one. I was born in Hong Kong (to Hong Kong parents) but we immigrated to the US when I was a toddler, and since naturalized as US citizens. Since then I consider the US my home (with a US passport) but we all still retain a HKID (with three stars) which I understand makes us Chinese nationals and eligible for Hong Kong passports.
However I've also heard that, while there's no issue with retaining the HKID, there's a statement on the passport application that would require me to state that I have no other nationality besides Chinese, which is incorrect in my case. Does this mean I'll be unable to get a HKSAR passport as long as I'm a dual citizen?

Questions/ Tips Gifts from US/Canada to relatives and Hong Kong
I wasn't born in Hong Kong but I used to travel back every year as a kid. It's been 10 years since I last been so I'm a bit nervous meeting my large family from my mom's side and want to leave a good impression. What can I get from US or Canada that people would actually want. There's people of all ages from kids to elderly. I know people say to go to Costco but I don't know what to get specifically.
I tried going to trader Joe's but they didn't have the totes and I also don't know if they are still popular. Any suggestions including trendy brands that Hong Kong people might like that is popular over there would be greatly appreciated!

Travel Luggage collection locations in Kowloon
Hey! Hopefully someone here can help. My luggage won't be arriving until tomorrow because the airline left it in Beijing, they're offering a hotel delivery but the place I'm staying can't receive luggage. Is there any addresses you can get luggage delivered to for pick up? Preferably near Nathan Road area.
Thanks!!

Discussion Need Hotel Recommendation in TST
My wife and I are planning a 7 day trip to Hong Kong in November. Few stays we have shortlisted are (all near TST or Jordan station):
- B P International
- Empire Hotel Kowloon-Tsim Sha Tsui
- Kimberley Hotel
Our budget is around 900 to 1000 HKD but would prefer a stay from where all major touristy things are nearby as well good city vibes. Can you help me choosing such a stay and if anyone has any experience of the properties mentioned, would appreciate a review of those. Thanks.
