Typhoon Nuri is here in Hong Kong today. It is still signal 9 hoisted, one lower the highest possible of 10. Winds are very strong out here and city is in lock-down mode. All offices, stock markets, shops and public transport is shut.

I just went downstairs of my building to take some pictures shown below. All of HK media was here to cover typhoon. A lot of people like me were also downstairs to ‘experience’ typhoon during a short span of no rain.

Those of us who have been to China are used to bad Chinese to English translation of signs and menus (done usually online via tools like Babelfish) but this one is hilarious.

The translation FAILED and it was printed as is!
