I'm quite sure their landlords who have had their electricity bills,rates, annual business registration tax largely paid for by the government over the past couple of years or so have not passed on the savings to their tenants.

And for the budget, what could you expect anyway? Changes? Visions? I’ve the same problem with the Mazda Premacy, somehow I always read Pregnancy.

At least the Government didn't take the advice of Michael Tien, heir to a textile industry business, who suggests in the SCMP today that the Government should give subsidies to, er, re-establish the textile industry in Hong Kong. Mind you, they'll probably do that next year. It could be worse.

Perhaps Toyota could also install cut-off switches so the horn is disabled after 1 second of continuous use and disabled for a minute or five. However, they seem to have enough to worry about right now. Good idea Historian.

That way either we could all ride for next to nothing, or Hong Kong would be significantly quieter.
