One needs to compare hongkie income and rental. Expensive menu price is largely due to expensive rental and labour cost.

Malaysian is poor by comparison, find everything outside bolehland expensive.

Most hk eatery depending on high table turnover to sustain, couldn't blame them. Almost every restaurant food is better than the best in kl.

B80 only compare price not quality or reality.

I am not talking about eatary but proper hk restaurant. There are many HK cooking techniques, ingredients, etc Malaysian still couldn't master, don't use or don't practice.

How many Malaysian restaurants use dried octopus or cutter fish in their stock or soup?

HK portion is indeed bigger. Not western country big but big enough for a proper meal.

Any of their meal would make me full without the need to order seconds.

In Malaysia? If you order chicken rice, any type of noodles, mee rebus or whatever, you definitely need to add on something, either a snack, a second meal, or even pastry or else you will go hungry before dinner time.

Also, in HK, they always comes with a drink or soup during lunch hour.

**Item** **Hong Kong (HK\$)** **Malaysia (HK\$ Equivalent)**
----------------------- -------------------- ------------------------------
Rent (1BR outside city) 13,000 – 16,000 2,500 – 3,500 (RM1,500–2,000)
Fast food meal 50 – 70 12 – 20
Public transport 3 – 20/trip 1.50 – 4/trip
Basic groceries 2,000 – 3,500 700 – 1,200


That is why the debt is high here because we have a lot of subsidies. So the hong kong people are definitely more hardworking in order to survive.

Here can work Grab senang lenang still can survive cheap rental and petrol very enjoyable with motor or Axia.

Hong Kong and Singapore have no fuel subsidy for the normal peasant like us. So either you work hard or you suffer. Unlike here. I see the grab guy even fetch her gf to deliver food for him so happy.
