Questions/ Tips Taking part it sports activities as a foreigner who doesn't speak Cantonese

5 Upvotes

I've been here for almost half a decade and I don't really speak Cantonese besides some survival phrases.

Anyways my question is how do people like me take part in playing Football (soccer) or Basketball without being shooed away or ignored by the locals at the estate courts?

I tried bringing my own basketball and tried to shoot a few shots but I felt like I wasn't welcome there and I was disturbing their plans to play 3 v 3 or something.

Are there places in HK where people including foreigners go to play like after work or on weekends?

Questions/ Tips Need help tips and tricks regarding protest

9 Upvotes

Hello people of Hongkong , I am from delhi where you might know a student protest is going which was going peaceful until our own Prime Minister ordered police and goons to beat the hell out of us using clubs and batons , tear gas is also being used on us and also water canons It all happened on 20th Monday but it has been happening since that day daily now in our reels we see how you people have done it so well in your country apparently nothing is that much organized here now . We have started giving goggles and masks to our student medical teams but soon we will distribute it among other students as well . My question would be how and what all methods did you used to protect yourselves ? All tips and tricks are welcomed thanks .

Ps:- our metro(subway) is probably being made unaccessible for us as they are trying to keep the platform closed to protest site

HKID Passport renewal living abroad

Post image
Upvotes

Hello everyone! I need help renewing my dad''s passport. He is 73 years old and currently lives in Brazil. His HK ID card was issued in 2007. When I try to apply for the passport renewal via the official website, a message appears stating that the ID card is invalid. I believe the ID card can only be renewed in person in Hong Kong, but he cannot travel without the passport.

There are no other options on the site; after the message about the invalid ID card appears, clicking "Confirm" causes the page to close automatically.

Could someone please advise me? He really needs to travel to handle some family matters. Thank you very much!

Yesterday when I got on a taxi, the driver was at least 80 yrs old. He blasted his radio at max volume and complained me for having too many baggages, and the whole ride was as bumpy as hell. Like why isn't there an age limit.

Discussion Finding a Job as a graduate

I am non Chinese but can speak conversational Cantonese computer engineer graduate. I don't know if it's only me but I am tired from constantly looking for a job. I have applied for many IT roles. I have applied for about 100-200 jobs and most have ghosted me or ghosted me after 1 interview. It's not like I am willing to put in the effort as I am willing to learn new skills. Am doing something wrong?

As a Cask Master customer who is currently dealing with unresolved matters, I am trying to understand whether other customers have had similar experiences to those described in publicly available reviews on other platforms.

One of my own experiences was finding a notice on the company's door when I attempted to visit their registered office (see photo).

If you are a current or former Cask Master customer and are willing to share your experience, either publicly or via DM, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you.

Whether your experience has been positive or negative, I would be grateful to hear from you. The purpose of this initiative is solely to better understand customers' experiences and determine whether there are common themes.

I am an independent customer and have no affiliation with Cask Master.
