Hong Kong was on of my favorite ports back in the 80's when I was in the Navy. Very cool, very nice people and great Pubs. They also had a Huge Software Piracy market. You could look at a list, buy a game, They would copy a disk and photo copy the manual. Kids could bring in their own disk and buy games for 25cents each. I pirated on my C64 but stopped when the Amiga came out.
Hong Kong had a great vibe to it. Probably not there anymore.
