Twilight Zone

Systemic breakdowns in Hong Kong are unheard of. There are never lack of preparedness, lines, or breakdown of the revered octopus card system. For the first time in 20 years, the Great China Chaos has descended into HK. I go buy a sim card and it was sold out. There wasn’t another one that works for both China and HK. There was a line at 7-11. Then, as a final straw, I couldn’t check my balance on my octopus card. Four strike outs in a row upon landing in HK, I realized with dread- HK is turning into China. The last bastion of civilization and great management of everything is reaching breakdown.
