It was a strange experience being in HK it reminded me so much of Cyprus and its British colonial past. Traffic still drives on the left, road signs and street names are both in English and Chinese, power plugs in hotels and homes are the same as England, a great place to visit... seems a very orderly society but I still prefer the Anarchy of Greece. Thanks for you comment Μαρίνα, best regards. Phoebus

Very interesting comments about the "anarchy" of Greece (and Mediterranean countries) versus the orderly societies of the North. And very nice photo of this tram. Greetings from Spain.

Thanks for your comment Joaquín. The other side of the coin of course is the ripe corruption that's taking place, the burning of forests at the orders of developers for illegal building and profit, the death of many people, and the environmental disaster etc.

Mediterranean countries has more "quality of life" that the more riches countries of Northern Europe. You can live more time at the street or the countryside. Corruption is another subject.
