//Tender in the darkness|Pat To Yan
Published (HKT): 2020.11.22
In the last show of Tat Ming Pair’s concert, Anthony Wong shared a letter from a fan in mainland China. The fan was born in the 2000s. The fan was once misled by the Chinese Government’s propaganda and was puzzled by the images of their beloved Hong Kong in a riot (Anthony has omitted the gender of the fan). Then s/he found that all their favorite bands suddenly disappeared from all music platforms, including Tat Ming, My Little Airport, and C All Stars. Why is it that all of their favorite bands are supporting ‘Hong Kong’s Independence’! Hahaha! (The fan said). Then they searched for more information and found the MV of Tat Ming’s Remembering is guilty. The fan was stunned by the MV and was confronted with the truth finally.
There’s actually a dark side to the Hong Kong resistance movement. On the internet, hate speech toward mainland Chinese was easily found. Some Hong Kongers think they are superior since Hong Kong dares to resist and revolt. I am sure most of them are not frontline fighters. If you have experienced the battles on the streets, you know the protesters are a mix of different kinds of people including new immigrants and mainland Chinese. In the election of the District Council last year, the districts having a high population of new immigrants voted for the candidates of the democratic camp, like Shui Chuen O Estate. Mainland Chinese being cowardly in fighting against the government is just a stereotype. People holding this view fall into the trap of extreme nationalism which I have hated my whole life. On the other hand, they fall into the trap of the Chinese Government. In these ten years, the Government has been hard at work to tear apart mainland Chinese and Hong Kongers. They are afraid of us spreading the seeds of resistance in the mainland. In fact, strategically, we should work closely with Chinese who are willing to resist.
It’s a topic that can’t be discussed thoroughly. Some Hong Kongers would turn a deaf ear when you want to discuss with them. I know Tat Ming shared letters by mainland Chinese fans every night of his show. Anthony just read the letters and did not make any statement. Nevertheless, his sharing was already a combat against the stereotype.
In the show, Tat Ming makes good use of the power of tenderness. Hong Kong is deeply depressed and the show can easily go in the direction of self-indulgence. The mood of suppression was demonstrated in the pauses of the show. People chanted the slogans that were said to be forbidden for five whole minutes. We’re happy to grasp the chance to release and relieve. Tat Ming keeps reminding us to carry on what we’re doing. And most importantly, we should keep our sense of humor. Yes, it’s true. The Totalitarian Government doesn’t like it when people laugh. Taking everything easy and making fun of everything are the strengths of Hong Kong culture. Our right of humor should not be deprived.
I always believe in the power of Art. Not many people can remember the name of the King of the Shakespearean age, but we are still enjoying Shakespearean works. The fan I have mentioned said Tat Ming’s works gave them energy and support, and they said they are ‘the frustrating kid galloping in the light’ (a line of lyric directly translated from a song of Tat Ming). We’re lucky enough to have Tat Ming in the age of darkness.//

china fun fact 在 Food of Hong Kong by Epicurushongkong Facebook 的精選貼文
It was gradually multiple Mushrooms season, just realized I made various quick dishes. This one was Austrian Chanterelle mushrooms with Avocado & Crispy Potato Roesti, Fried Egg for brunch. Hardly recall eating it coz I cooked then gobbled it down in 15 Mins ⌚🤔 Another fun fact is even if loads of mushrooms are coming from Yunnan China, most people imported European Chanterelle/Girolles in HK, Morels were like half & half @ Hong Kong

I walked 100,000 steps in 24 hours and it was the hardest physically and mental challenge I have ever done!
I explored Macau on my 100,000 steps challenge, using my Garmin watch to record my steps. It works similarly to a fitbit, recording the amount of steps you do while walking.
I wanted to do this extreme adventure challenge to test my limits and see if I could walk 100,000 steps in a day.
As a challenge itself, it was very difficult but what made it harder was the fact that I filmed it all solo. I used my camera and tripod, carrying all my gear on my back for the 24 hour hiking challenge.
There were extreme highs and lows in this crazy travel experience however finishing it at 22 hours of walking was the most rewarding feeling in the world.
The distance of 100,000 steps is around 50 miles or 80km and I had never done anything close to that distance.
Many ultra marathons are 50 miles but I was only walking not running so it was not as bad as that! (perhaps next time I can try!)
I walked around Macau, exploring off the beaten path and discovering hidden gems all around the place. With this many steps to do I really could walk down every alleyway and street in Macau, exploring all the areas I had never travelled to before.
Macau is a great city for a challenge like this as I could explore so many different urban and natural environments, walking and hiking at the scenic Penha Hills for sunrise. When hiking off trail I even found 2 abandoned buildings that were awesome fun to explore.
I also walked past Ama Temple, the oldest temple in Macau at over 500 years old. The whole area around this Chinese temple is full of interesting history and a wonderful travel destination for things to do in Macau.
I walked down the red street, Senado Square, Hong Kung Temple and went to a secret travel destination called Sun Yat Sen Park. This park found on the border of Zhuhai offers great nature spots and very beautiful walks through greenery. It is certainly a hidden gem of Macau and worth travelling to or visiting when in Macau whether you live in Macau or are visiting on a Macau day trip from Hong Kong or China.
I then walked to Kun Iam Temple, exploring the ancient garden, off the beaten path and far from the crowds there are so many things to discover here it really makes for a great outdoor hiking adventure!
I walked over the Macau bridge to Taipa, exploring Old Taipa Village and then going back to the Grand Lisboa Hotel. Here back in Macau side you can find photogenic neon lit streets perfect for urban exploring or night photography.
Overall walking 100,000 steps in 1 day was an awesome adventure and a crazy travel challenge. Thank you to Garmin for recording all my steps!
I really hope you enjoyed this adventure video in Macau and if you would like to see more adventure vlogs like this one or more travel content in Macau, please let me know!
Thank you so much for watching this adventure challenge and I will see you in the next video!

10 REASONS HAVING FACIAL HAIR IS OVERRATED FOR ASIAN GUYS (MOVEMBER)
Many Asian guys dread Movember - a global movement that encourages men all over the world to grow moustaches in support of combating prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health challenges.
As the stereotype goes, Asian’s can’t grow facial hair, or at least find it very hard to, and unlike some other Asian stereotypes, this one is kind of true.
I actually did a video a few months ago on Asians not being able to grow facial hair and I received quite a few comments and questions from unhappy Asian guys longing for more than just baby hairs.
But you know, I feel its overrated. It seems like the universe likes to screw around with us because there are many Asian guys who can’t grow facial hair but would really like to, and then there’s me, an Asian guy who CAN grow facial hair, but never cared for having that ability.
Here’s 10 reasons why facial hair is overrated (for Asian guys).
1) Time
This one’s the most obvious one. It takes time, to maintain facial hair., Maintaining a well-groomed beard, or having to shave everyday takes time; time that’s better spent sleeping in, reading the paper or checking emails.
2) Cuts & Irritations
I don’t have this problem because I never shave.
But for most jobs, one is actually expected to look presentable which means frequent shaving, and thus a higher likelihood for cuts or irritations.
3) Career
A lot of jobs require a fresh face, especially in Asia. In fact, a study has shown that 84% of HR professionals agree that clean-shaven, facially hairless employees, have a much higher chance of being promoted than those with beards, moustaches and stubble.
So for those who can’t really grow facial hair.....who cares! You’re naturally one step closer to rising the ranks anyway.
4) Ageing
People often make fun of guys who can’t grow facial hair for having young looking faces.
But, really? You’re making fun of someone because they look youthful? How many people would kill to look young for their age?
Although I guess the counter to that is that asians never age, so there’s nothing to worry about. That’s a misconception. Asians do age slowly, but up to a certain point; maybe to their early 30’s, and then BAM! Oldie.
5) Food Magnet
Food. Beard. Magnet.
6) Female Perspective
Yes some studies have shown that a fair share of women do like facial hair on a guy, but this viewpoint is primarily directed towards white guys. Out of the women who are into Asian guys however, I think they prefer a clean shaven look. Especially Asian girls. From my experience, Asian females seem too not be a fan.
And for non-Asian females who are into Asian guys, they don’t care, they really don’t. If they’re into Asian dudes, they probably even prefer a hairless, smooth appearance.
7) Scratchiness
It’s not pleasant for a girl when your rough stubble cheese grates across her delicate face. That scratchiness can be really irritating for her.
8) Moustaches
When it comes to moustaches, and assuming you’re an Asian guy, do the world a favour and don’t attempt to grow one. Asians just don’t look good in those soup strainers.
Do you really wanna be looking like an Asian pedophile?
9) Celebrities
If you’re bothered by your lack of facial hair, you’re probably somewhat influenced by Hollywood and western pop culture. But even so, there are a number of heartthrob stars who are as facially sparse as the average Asian.
To name a few, Harry Styles, Michael Cera, Justin Bieber ....okay maybe they aren’t the manliest of men, but you can’t deny their popularity with girls. So if that’s your concern, it’s really no big deal.
10) Does It Even Matter?
'Nuff said.
