Macau


Although Macau reverts to Chinese rule in 1999, in the meantime the people continue to speak Portuguese. Hong Kongers come here for a weekend sojourn to relax, eat, buy furniture, and more importantly, gamble. In Macau, casinos proliferate. The Hotel Lisboa is one of the oldest in town. In additionto the casinos, Macau also offers a melange of Chinese and Portuguese cuisine; try Os Gatos, Littorial, or Fernando's by the sea. Spread the night in Macau, explore the street and be merry.

Tips on how to reach Macau:-
Take the Macau Ferry from the Macau Ferry pier in Central, but do remember to bring your passport. Hong Kong - Macau Hydrofoil 23070880 for the timetable. Macau Tourist Information 28572287.

Tsim Sha Tsui Waterfront


What can you see at Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront? You would probably be explored to the unique skyline created by the cluster of buildings around the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront. Tsim Sah Tsui was once the site of old Hong Kong - Guangzhou train station, but now all that's left is the old brick Clock Tower. The three structures of the Clock Tower, the curvaceous Cultural Center, and the domed Space Museum make a beautiful public space. This is a well-known lovers spot.
A stroll at Christmas and Chinese New Year is a particular treat, when the buildings adorn their walls with festive lights. If time permits, catch a 360 degree Omnimax movie at the domed Space Museum for the some galactic excitement.

Tips on how to reach Tsim Sha Tsui Waterfront:
Take Star Ferry from Central to Tsim Sha Tsui, or MTR to Tsim Sha Tsui.

Another Bullshit of Private Message

Dear Friend,

Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr.Marvin K.T Cheung Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. I have a Secured business suggestion for you.

Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Col. Hosam Hassan who was with the Iraqi forces and also business man made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months,with a value of Thirty million United State Dollars ($30,000,000.00) only in my branch. Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even during the war early this year. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later find out that Col. Hosam Hassan along with his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country at the expiration 4 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.

Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Col. Hosam Hassan so that you will be able to receive his funds. Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue.Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account we shall share in the ratio of 60% for me,40% for you.

Should you be interested please send the information?s below,

1. Full names and Age..............
2. Private phone number...............
3. Current residential address...........

I will prefer you reach me on my private Email address below:
Email: marvin_cheung35@hotmail.com

And finally after that I shall provide you with more details on this transaction.

Your earliest response to this letter will be highly appreciated.

Kind Regards,
Mr.Marvin K.T Cheung.
