No, not many pickpockets, but of coz you still need to be aware your belongings all the time. Wallet better don't put it in the back pocket of your pants especially in Ladies street/Temple street/Mongkok area.
Yes, most salespersons in tourist areas can speak English (but if the english you speak has heavy M'sian accent, better speak it slowly 'coz I find most HKers can't catch this accent of English very much...) People in Cha Charn Teng mostly don't understand English and menu mainly written in Chinese...
For places of interest/shopping please read thru my #1 post and some posts I replied to forumers before. Thank you.
