French Spiderman does it again in Hong Kong. He climbed the 45-story Four Seasons Hotel in Central Hong Kong yesterday to the shock of office workers at lunch time. He had climbed Cheung Kong Center in Hong Kong before already.

Here is the video of the climb.

Oasis Airlines, a Hong Kong based budget carrier announced today that it will cease operations effective immediately and apply for liquidation. The news came on the heels of huge losses in the wake of rising oil prices and operations out of one of world’s most expensive Hong Kong airport.

This is the picture of a China taxi meter which we took from Xiamen to Quan Zhou and back. The total bill on meter was about 900 RMB (120 US$) but I took picture of this pattern of 7s.

Rarely did I rode a taxi in my life with so high the bill.
