ITs still open though some are going out of business. Not many people are going out especially at the protest hotspot. At least you dont need to queue for a long time if you want to eat. Heard from news there are layoff especially for small businesses. Office workers are generally not impacted as HK is a financial center and basically they work for MNCs. Office/shop rents now are going down which I think is a good thing. Prada is not going to renew their lease for their biggest store in Causeway Bay. Why HS is not impacted? Well this means that the finance structure here is still strong and company listed here are basically MNC or Chinese company. Even Ali Baba is doing their secondary listing here in HK. Its impacted more by the trade war between US and China.
Ok thx. Just curious... do people talk about it in office or when they bump into each other? I see people do not dare to criticise the protesters for the wilful damage of properties for fear for revenge ...are people torn in the opinions/ support for the protest? Are the silent majority supporting this protest(riot)? Are there any prominent figures come out in the news to ask them to stop or everyone is in support or what?This post has been edited by aspartame: Nov 22 2019, 10:25 AM
