    A long while ago someone tried to convince me to take a job in Singapore on the same basis - get cheap help from whoever the underclass is there and do some white collar coasting.

      I think Filipinas make up most of the most exploited domestic workers in Singapore and elsewhere om SE Asia. Hong Kong has a particularly sordid history of mistreating foreign domestic workers - one of the few ways I will admit that they are indeed "closer to the English".

            I fucking hate anticommunists so much. This is the "freedom" they hold sacred. The thing they're willing to kill and enslave billions for. And they act like you're the monster if you don't agree.

        And when they start being racist toward Filipinos all of a sudden "HongKong is not China" doesn't apply anymore and it's all of our faults. CCP is too soft on HK.
