It was the old image of Chinese products (edit: also services), but recently their quality has increased significantly. On top of that, the price is much lower than alternatives.

It's mostly the surveillance state

When people saw the price, they stopped caring about that. This has been the case of Hong Kong.

price makes no fucking difference whether or not it comes from a sweatshop. especially fucking clothes

Sweatshop is probably true, but I'm telling you, you just cannot resist the price as a consumer. Tooth filling for 29 HKD (3.7 USD), you just can't beat that.

Hongkonger are extremely realistic and practical. Price low? Use it
