On my way home tonight, I was stopped by the police... Asking to see my ID card... This is not the first time I'm stopped by the police to check ID, in HK, this is very common practice... But the most unusual thing about this "check" is that while I'm getting my ID, he asked where I'm going, am I working, working as what, then when I passed him my ID, he just took it, flip it over and return to me without even calling back to HQ to check... Maybe I'm being thick-skin but felt that he's main purpose was just to stop me to chat and not to check...

Anyway, whatever you do, while traveling in HK, remember to bring your identity documents...
