Title: Sorta Interesting: Hong Kong Youth Idolization Article
Post by: 182Ways on March 29, 2002, 11:22:27 PM

\'Superficial HK Youth\' article (http://straitstimes.asia1.com.sg/storyprintfriendly/0,1887,109948-1016920740,00.html?)

It\'s an interesting read, but there is one quote that really seems to stick out...

Quote

Even terrorist Osama bin Laden was \'idolised\' by Hongkong teenagers, coming in at 16th position, ahead of mums and dads at 34th and 56th place respectively.

Hard to believe that some of them actually idolize one of the current world\'s most notorious terrorists more than their own parents.

Thoughts?

Um, most countries hate America.  They would idiolize a leader out to destrouy the U.S.

It\'s good to know we won\'t have a shortage of countries to bomb in our little war.  The soldiers can go straight from North Korea to Hong Kong without the bother of waiting for Bush to pull more countries\' names out of his hat.
