嘩死啦﹐唔通真係打到嚟?

今日星期日﹐離christmas一個月鬆D﹐我去左pacific centre同HR做D嘢。 平日﹐唔好話weekend﹐平日都有D人無聊唔洗返工去shopping﹐但係今日真係可以話冷清!

莫講話樓上harry rosen接HR果邊D所為名店﹐果D預左唔會好爆﹐但係經過H&M都無人就得人驚喇。往年真係大袋細袋﹐人頭擁擁殺錯良民﹐今年真係氣紛差好多。

估唔到連呢邊都咁現實﹐我仲覺得D加拿大人有時係遊遊哋雲唔係好被經濟影響﹐點知我都跌眼鏡。幾個禮拜前仲諗緊要唔要扮窮﹐我今年真係收斂D﹐求其洗一千幾百過年算啦。

Ng hey ar wah ...   this weekend ..  even snowing like crazy here .. but everywhere .. PACKED of people .  I was so pissed!   From mall .. Can tire .. london Drug ..  to Costco ..  I hvn't seen so many people shopping for months .... and everyone was buying wor .. and still long way to go Christmas ...  

Econ Crisis ??   in Canada ??  NO WAY!!!

大C姐又扮窮晒命??
作者: Catpiano    時間: 2008-11-17 09:59

Um .. is it just her? ( assume 大C姐 is a woman .. as many people in internet .. are men .. but pretend women)

How come only she noticed people are getting POOR in Canada?

How come only people/friends surrounding her .. are NOT spending as usual?

How come only when she goes shopping .. but not other??

Yeah .. TV / Newspaper etc .. talking about Econ crisis everyday .. and from HK news ..  it said HK retail is terrible now ..  however, I dont see any different in Canada bor .. how come 大C姐 can "feel" it ??

I think more and more Canadian will SHOPPING now ..  (at least, with in Canada)

No matter from buying a car, from mid level 3 series, buying in Canada is average $3-4K less then importing one from US ..  to higher end car, Porsche 911 C4S .. average $15,000 cheaper to buy in Canada then importing from US ...  

To even watches ..  say a Deep Sea, $9,900 Cad, vs $9,900 US as well (so 32% cheaper here) vs $69,800 HKD ..  Santo 100 .. $6250 Cad, $6250US as well, and $44K HKD ..

DSLR ? $899 cad to buy a XSi dual lens kit .. vs $999 US and $8,000 HKD .... 5DII  $2,999 Cad  vs $2,799 US and $23,800 HKD .. again .. cheaper in Canada ...

Even baby cart, I just compare price between US and Can .. $799US vs $899 cad ..  again ... cheaper in Canada now ...

People don't shop in Canada now?  don't kidding la...  I am sure I will spend way more in Canada this Fall then last fall! (same as most other Canadian!)

My mom says in HK...still tons of people shopping, streets/malls are always packed.

Here...company cut budgets, hearing lay off, and my RRSP goes down xx% etc. So I definitely do NOT want to spend a lot in the near future.
But is it very serious that I won't spend at all? not likely, but don't want to spend as much as previous x'mas time.

Well, still spending and spending a lot is two different stories...if the rest of the world isn't doing great, so will Canada, no exception...hm...maybe except for Alberta since they have oil and accumulated tons of money in the last few years.

For people who are upper class, this is a good time to shop cuz things will be cheaper this Christmas I think.  However, for people who are struggling with food, shelter, transportation, job, etc...too bad!

Vancouver is closely tied to Asian market.  If Japan, HK, China, Korea are not doing well...what do you think Vancouver will do?

Citigroup is cutting 53000 jobs!!!  20% of its staff...that's pretty scary.

No way, that's just because last wed night Holts was having a promotion!! Getting a $50GC per $750 purchase up to $500GC per 5K purchase. I can see the economic downturn doesn't seem to exit, cuz there were TONS of people lining up to get bags, cosmetics and shoes. It's even more crazy than boxing day. For H&M, i guess people went for comme des garcons stuff on last thursday already.

Not Dlux 4 la .. but order the LX3 ..  not because of Stock or Econ gai ..

But when I compared LX2 and D lux 3 2 yr ago .. $650 for Panasonic ($400US) and $750 for Leica ($699US) I bought the Leica ..  $100 .. the logo worth it ..

Now .. $515 for the Pan LX3, ($499 US, and $3880HKD) vs $1029 for Leica D lux 4 ($949US) then I am not going to spend $500 for the red dot la..  

(May be this is way, every shop has D lux 4 in stock, but sold out LX3, 2 yr ago, every shop had LX2 in stock, but I had waited for a month for the D lux3)



So many things want to buy ..   DC .. DSLR .. funitures ..  car(SUV) .. watch ..  and BABY stuffs ..     but at least now, dont have to buy from US or HK or Europe! just buy local!

(on the other hand, lots of people in HK, DON'T shop locally, but fly to Aust or Europe for shopping now, as Euros and Aust $$ are lower now ..  )
作者: BiscottiGelato    時間: 2008-11-17 14:31

Being poorer doesn't mean everyone dun buy anything ma.... everyone still goes out and shop, maybe instead of buying a Ferrari buy a Porsche, instead of buying a Jaeger buy a Rolex, instead of buying Hermes bags bags buy cheap crap (relateively) LVs..... that's a form of downgrade too LOL. Also, can also reduce, instead of buy 2 ct diamonds go down to 1.5 ct, etc. Regardless, the indicator for retail consumption will be known very soon and it will be a huge contraction, without a doubt (unless the sky start raining money someday between now and the beginning of 2009 LOL).

For me, I'll go from buy some cheap crap to buy nothing, that's all LOL
作者: Catpiano    時間: 2008-11-17 15:05

HEY ..  
BG ..  I can see from Ferrari cut cost to Porsche ..  Jaeger downgrade to Rolex ..

But Hermes ( kelly / Birkin ) downgrade to LV ???     NO NO NO NO NO WAY !! that is a HUGE DOWNGRADE !!!!! People with Hermes are mostly rich and tasteful!  
I can't see people from H bags to LV ..
( May be you should say from LV to root? )


Even Ferrari and J people, they are usually those top rich people ..  they are still RICH la.  look at those CEO from Lehman ..   even GM . still making hundreds of million $$$  

probably lots of people down grade from Porsche to BMW ..  from Rolex/Cartier to Omega/Tag ..

匯豐炒450人 花旗全球裁5萬
失業率公布前夕哀歌         2008年11月18日
廣 告
Jump.com

【明報專訊】在政府公布最新失業率前夕,擁有2.1萬名員工的香港匯豐銀行繼9月裁減100名員工後,昨日再裁減450人,佔本港整體員工逾2%,銀行會先以內部調配為受影響員工提供合適工作。匯豐銀行執行董事王冬勝表明,在經營前景不明朗下,僱主難保證不再裁員。

除了匯豐外,美國第二大銀行花旗集團(Citigroup)昨晚宣布大裁員,全球裁員達5萬人,佔集團總人手超過一成,這是9月金融海嘯爆發以來全球最大型的企業裁員行動。

花旗香港員工指每分行削一人

在中東迪拜出席會議的花旗主席比肖夫(Win Bischoff)透露,需要「瘦身」的主要是紐約及倫敦的金融部門。花旗之前已宣布準備裁員2.2萬人,今年以來已有最少1.3萬人被裁。至於香港受影響程度,花旗香港發言人昨晚拒絕評論。但有花旗香港前線員工透露,該行近日已實行首階段裁員,全港近20間分行,每間都已裁減一名非銷售部員工,而負責電話銷售的「sky branch」部門,更裁去約三分一人手,即解僱約10人,第二階段目標將轉向客戶經理。

政府今日公布8月至10月失業率,中大財務學碩士課程主任蘇偉文預計失業率會上升0.1至0.2個百分點,明年失業率有機會由現時的3.4%回升至5%至6%。

上星期已盛傳匯豐會在本周第二次裁員,但該行昨日一直不肯回應,至下午6時後,匯豐執董王冬勝向員工發出內部郵件,證實再裁減450人。

王冬勝在郵件中表示,對裁員感到遺憾,但「由於多個部門的架構需要改變,同時考慮到外圍經濟轉壞,以及對2009年的經營環境抱持審慎的態度,所以銀行不得不作出這次困難的決定」。

他指出,未來幾個星期會盡力協助受影響員工,在行內或行外尋找工作機會。發言人解釋,由於架構重整,部分工種會取消,「但其他部門若有空缺,他們可透過內聯網申請職位」。

王冬勝:僱主難保證不再裁員

匯豐在港約有2.1萬名員工,「倖存者」最關心會否進一步裁員,王冬勝在郵件中說,「在目前情勢之下,恐怕沒有一個僱主可以承諾保障員工的工作不受影響……但大家可以放心,銀行不會對短期因素作過度反應,倘若決定必須削減職位,定會先協助受影響的同事尋找內部調職機會。」

職工盟組織幹事宋治德及香港銀行業僱員協會副總幹事譚建新表示,昨早已收到匯豐裁員消息,部分中、高層員工陸續到中環總行收解僱信。裁員主要涉及資訊科技、產品銷售等部門,部分分行經理亦被裁走。

匯豐發言人未有透露裁員詳情,但指受影響員工不會即時離開,公司會在未來4至7星期,盡力透過內部調配或在市場為被裁員工尋找新工作。員工亦可獲優於勞工法例的賠償。勞工處發言人說,會在12個就業中心設立特別櫃位,並設兩條熱線(2922 6222;2591 1318),協助受影響員工。

香港銀行業僱員協會副主席余少華表示,由於銀行電腦工作較為特別,故「重災區」的資訊科技部門員工,可能較難在市場找到合適工作。他說,銀行僱員在金融海嘯及雷曼事件面對沉重工作,裁員行動是「過橋抽板」,工會將於短期內約見金管局或銀行公會,反映從業員的憂慮。

無铫AIA否認裁員

另外,電視廣播有限公司(TVB)及友邦(AIA)亦傳出裁員消息,但兩間公司皆否認。職工盟宋治德引述一名在友邦電話營商中心工作4年的員工稱,已於10 月31日收到解僱信,同組約20人相信亦會被解僱,但友邦發言人回覆稱,有關友邦電話營商中心裁員的報道並不正確。另昨日有傳無铫會在台慶後裁員300 人,無铫電視外事部副總監曾醒明強調公司未有裁員計劃,目前一切運作如常。

我唔知其他地方忙唔忙啦﹐我眼見PC係幾冷清。只係局部性地區有人流囉。

不過人流少都不無道理﹐話說前排同D sales姐姐搭訕﹐佢哋都話今年應赴christmas都請少左人。唔會好似以前請定幾十個臨時工。

當然我唔係制做恐荒﹐為恐天下不亂啦﹐我都想大家團結D度過寒冬。但係真係好多工司結業﹐連電視台嘅節目都cut細。大佬呀﹐無錢先要靠呢D免費娛樂度日。

唉﹐你哋班蛋散一時一樣﹐成日同我打對台。我之前話市道唔係咁差唔洗扮窮你哋話我晒命﹐又話好多人無得食。我話經濟低瞇你哋又唱反調﹐係咪作反呀而家﹗﹗﹗

Comeon, this is not accurate at all. The poorer people do not even go out on the streets at all. You know, transportation fees in HK is very high. Those people you see on the streets eating and shopping are those with better buying power.

Do you even know that some families in HK have only $120 for food each day? I never said those eat out are rich. The disparity between rich and poor is big in HK. Depending on where they want to go, a family trip that includes bus/railway costs them a lot.

I agree that the disparity between rich and poor is big in HK, but it is a fact. If you have any solution, please don't hestitate to call our Mr. Tsang.

I feel sorry that poor families cannot afford transporation cost, but the transportation cost in HK is really not expensive comparing with other foreign conutries.

Comeon, $2 a tram trip and $2.2 a star ferry trip, tell me that is expensive.

Comeon, maybe peter兄 go by taxi for every single trip

Comeon!


Comeon, we are taking about bus and railway. Tram and Star Ferry, are you kidding? Where can go to using only those two transportation? Transportation are expensive for many families who have less than HK$10000 per month, so they just stay home. After paying for rent, and textbook fees, there is not much for food and clothing. So they just stay home. Of course, there are always people who spend a lot more.

Comeon, do you even know that some families in HK have more than $1200 for food each day?
I agree that the disparity between rich and poor is big in HK, but it is a fact. If you have any solution,  ...


We are not comparing HK's transportation fees with other countries. Why do you think we are doing that? We are just saying that there are many HK families which cannot afford transportation. To them it is expensive.
作者: Catpiano    時間: 2008-11-18 14:55

what is expensive ? what is cheap?

We need to "COMPARE" .. in order to say something is expensive .. something is cheap ..  

To super rich ..  they can fly with their private Jet for a concept ..   

To some Poor ..  spend $30 cent ( $2HKD) for tram = their lunch ...  

However, we are in Canada now, and saying HK transportation is EXPENSIVE ??   

COMEON !!

If loyaukee is a THAILAND forum ...  then . .COMEONE  .. yes .. transportation in HK is expensive, compare to " tud tud" in Thailand ..  

I just don't understand why somepeople have to say BLACK to WHITE ..  point a horse, and call it a dog ..   it must be fun for some people to start up some non sense flame online ..  

Since when we are talking about those POOREST from Hong Kong ??

Why not talk about the poor and pity people in China ? India ? and Africa too?  

We all know we are lucky to live in Canada, there are WAY MORE people ..  dont even know what is Econ Crisis ..  for those people are affected by econ crisis ?  are those wealthy people already ..  still 90% people are not affected in the world ..  those people can't afford to buy stock ..  or even transportation ..   

I remember a movie, (china movie?)  whole village of kids + teacher ..   work for a week ..  can barely make enough money to buy a train ticket and a can of COKE  ( $3 cad ?  50 people income for whole week? )   

Yes .. we all know some people are very poor .. some people are very rich ..  Making $10K HKD a month is already more then 80% people (or more)  in the rest of the world ..  but ..

COME ON ! that is not we are talking about here ....  

( hey ..  大C姐 .. where are you!? Fi D come back la.. I rather read your replies for laugh ! )

Catpiano, you can't read at all. The point here is that a LYK said his/her mom saw a lot of people shopping in HK, so that is why we started to talk about HK. We are not comparing HK's transportation fees with other places. It may look cheap to us, but to some people in HK, the transportation fees is high.

So ..  that is related to 扮窮 or 賴大嘢??

There are ~ 8 million people in HK ..    how hard to see lots of people go shopping?  no one said ALL 8 million people go shop for Birkin and PP wor ..   even just 1% ..  80,000 people la... *&*

comeon... you gotta be kidding me... you don't even know where you can use the tram?? have u even been on HK ISLAND or been to Hong Kong for that matter?????  ferry is actually a VERY quick way to get from TST to Central.  pretty much the max amount u can spend on transportation other then taxi is limited to within 30 bux a day.  
and ppl on welfare gets like 6-8g a month and they can still survive.  btw, if they are that poor, they live probably live in public housing.  you know how much is the rent of those?  its cheaper then my parking space at my home.

作者: kabuki    時間: 2008-11-19 02:00

Actually u can double that.... in hk it's quite expensive if you need to "cross sea" everyday to go and from work... esp. if you ride the N bus... it cost at least 20 bucks one way.... and on top you might need to add the cost of the shuttle bus to and from your complex to the MTR/bus station...

So.. it's not as expensive as "COMEON" hv stated but it is also not cheap...

You moron, those people in New Territories cannot use the Star Ferry or the tram. They need to take the bus or railway first. Have you ever been to Fan Ling or Tsuen Wan? For some people, after paying the rent, electricity, utilities, they only have enough for food. So they nearly do not shop at all. Do not argue with me here. I saw a TVB program that talked about just that. The transportation fee is high for some people in HK. They have to stay within they own district, instead of going to a better shopping district. The data from HK government shows that retail revenue is lower than before. This shows people are not shopping as much.

why don't you answer this question, have you ever even been to hk?

edit:
LOL.... I guess you havn't been to Tsuen Wan... it have everything already, I can't think of anything normal people would buy is not available in Tsuen Wan.  BTW, better shopping district like TST, CWB, Central are NOT targetting to people that think transportation is expensive,  if they can't even afford transportation, how do you think they have money to buy LV, Gucci, Chanel???

作者: shutterbug    時間: 2008-11-19 12:28

I often spend like 100 bucks in HK for transportation on an average day, is that expensive or cheap?  It depends on how much I make right?  

The upper class will never understand the lower class...sigh...民間疾苦!  I'm challenging the upper class here, have you ever been poor, like really poor?  If you've never been poor, how can you understand how that feels like?  This is directly related to how expensive you think transportation is.  It's useless to compare transportation fees between different areas.  This is an issue about affordability.

Have you ever been to HK yourself? Are you even from HK? There are some HK families that cannot afford the high transportation fees. So they just don't go out as much. You are actually proving my point here. When we go to TST and Central, we see lots of people shopping. Does that mean the economy is good? What we don't see are those who are forced to stay in New Territories. Do you even know how much the median income of HK families is?

Man .. totally OT now ..   we all know there is a 金融海嘯 now .. (for those who doesn't know,  are probably those poorest people)

However, I am surprised to know COMEON is from Hong Kong ( none of HK people I know, talk likes him )..   Poor people forced to stay in NT ?? lots of people do shopping in TST and Central? but not NT ?

Like I said ..  ~ 7-8million people in HK ..  even just 1% people go shopping ..and even 90% people just WALK ..  still almost 1 million people will take transportation ..  

Actually, those rich people in HK ..  won't even take public transportation at all .. they hv their own cars, own drivers ....  etc ..

I guess meidan income for HK family is probably less then $10K HKD ...  ( not mean average )

I noticed even with 金融海嘯 .. still lots of people go shopping, but that doesn't mean NO 金融海嘯 and not mean it doesn't afftect how/what people buy now, as BG said.

當然啦﹐呢個問題我之前都講過﹐呢個世界有窮人﹐但係同金融海嘯一D關係都無﹐佢哋係唔係都窮。

受害都係我哋呢班中產﹐年紀輕可能仲有得搏過﹐老D無左大半生積蓄係確實慘。

但係我強調﹐從來無積蓄﹐連交通費都俾唔起嘅貧窮線以下人士﹐佢哋嘅問題唔應該同海嘯受害者混為一談。

不過如果真係賴大嘢﹐都不防去諗下比你更差更窮嘅人。

有幾多? 十萬都唔係好多。

哪﹐你諗下啦。一個典形中產家庭﹐公一份婆一份﹐月入十萬。一場海嘯無左一份收入﹐得5萬。

當然﹐咩PETER仔﹐ROBERT仔可以走出嚟講句"好多人囉眾援得幾千蚊一個月咋﹐C姐"。但係我可以同你講﹐5萬蚊有幾多? 一個家庭有老有嫩加個小賓賓﹐隨隨便便養6-7個人。5萬除開6-7個人﹐每人都係得果幾千蚊一個月。

又即係講﹐好多家庭﹐可能專業人士﹐讀好多書﹐辛辛苦苦打十幾年工﹐可能做緊banker匯穠十萬八萬一個月﹐突然無左份工或者一半收入﹐結果生活入息只係緊緊好過囉眾援。點身解唔大打擊? 呢個我好明。

當然﹐人比人比死人﹐你要講就講到非洲或者中國山區無水飲都得。但係確之然有好多原本喺好多人眼中係中上家庭成為受害者。

TBH, i dont give a fcuk that ppl cant afford transportation fee.  its not my problem.  

your point was that they can't go out cuz they can't afford transportation.  i said they can walk. they can still shop at their local malls.  doesn't matter they are buying or not, they can still travel to a "shopping" area for free.  like i said, when they are so fcuking poor, why the hell would they goto TST or Central to shop in the first place? they can't afford any sh!t there.  those ppl think park n shop and wellcome is expensive, these ppl can't even afford to buy water at citysuper!
