HKU Students to Tour North Korea and Singapore to Find Out More about Dictatorships!

An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

A while ago, I was in Fragrant Harbour for a hiking holiday and took the opportunity to take the newly completed MTR extension line to HKU and visit their new centennial campus. Not bad, small and cramped but quite well designed and modern.

On a student notice board, two posters caught my eye:

1) From 6th to 9th January 2016, a HKU student delegation will be visiting Singapore. The topic of the tour is: "Singapore: The Post Lee Kuan Yew Era".

2) Close to the 1st notice is another one - tour to North Korea from 22nd to 29th December - a language and sports exchange tour.

Very appropriate putting North Korea and Singapore in the same boat.

For the Singapore tour, these impressionable Hongkie students will meet the following high powered dignatories:

a) Kwong Kin Ming, former researcher at LKY School of Public Policy;

b) Young leader of PAP [wonder who?];

c) Young leader of WP, the "major opposition party" or PAP team B [wonder who?];

d) Elvis Presley of NTU - wah didn't know Universities of Birmingham and Newcastle is so "solid" one arh;

e) Founder of Snapask, a very high-tech start-up in Sinkieland, specialising in sending Sinkie morons to Mars if they don't do their homework properly i.e. online tuition app wor!

After having a good laugh, I decided to visit the main building, Loke Yew Hall, named after Malaysian tin and rubber tycoon, before departing for the airport.
