Finally Done All My Exams
I feel so very released now because I’ve finished writing all my end of term exams. Other the past month of being inactive online, there are many things I saw happened around the world that I didn’t have time to blog about. These are completely random rambling but I think they are quite interesting.
Say Good Bye To Oasis Airlines
If you came from southern China or a frequent traveler to Hong Kong, you may heard of Oasis Airlines. When it launched the world’s first budget direct flight connecting Vancouver and Hong Kong, it got a ton of buzz. Their prices were extremely attractive and took over the Vancouver Hong Kong route by storm. Before Oasis came to Vancouver, Cathay Pacific and Air Canada dominated the market and they were the only choices. Oasis arrived offering direct flights for almost half of the price of the other two airlines. However, the dream of low cost direct flight between Vancouver and Hong Kong only lasted for about a year. Last week, the airlines suddenly shut down all its operations. They didn’t even give a prior warning! Many passengers are complaining now that the airlines still accepted booking the day it shut down! Good luck to those trying to claim their money back from the tickets they already bought. I even checked their website two days before they closed to check their prices. Lucky me wasn’t in a real need to fly to Hong Kong. I still believe the best, I mean the best, airline for traveling to Hong Kong is Cathay Pacific.
Say Good Bye To Edison Chen and Twins
What a wild ride for the Hong Kong entertainment industry since the beginning of the year. I guess everything is finally settled. The worst part of this whole mess was the loss of two very talented individuals from the HK show biz. For those who didn’t know or didn’t care about the HK show biz, the mess started with leaked sex photos of Edison Chen and Gillian Chung, a member of Twins, and Cecilia Cheung. Then other photos of other famous people started to pop up on the net. Edison was said to have hundreds of sex photo of HK singers/actresses. If you are interested in the whole story, you can Google “Edison Chen” and see for yourself. Edison and Gillian now call it stop for their careers in the show biz. This is a bad news because at least I think Edison is a good singer.

This incident is really bad for consumers like us. We now don’t have a really low price flight to HK.
