The Aquino government is stepping out of bounds in overly appeasing the Beijing government and the Hong Kong administrative regional government by having them receive the De Lima report first over the Filipino public.

Haven’t we collectively asked forgiveness for the ineptitude of our police and security officials?

Haven’t we humbled ourselves by practically kneeling down before Mainland China and Hong Kong and being lectured by their people?

What more can we do to appease them?

In trying to appease the Mainland Chinese and Hong Kong people we’re making other countries trample upon our dignity and pride as a nation.

We are feeding on the Hong Kong people’s arrogance by our seemingly servile stance towards them.

The people of Hong Kong are the most arrogant in the world.

Tourists from all over the world have complained of discourteous restaurant servers and department store clerks.

Several years ago, I approached a Hong Kong policeman standing at a street corner in Kowloon

district to ask for directions.

I didn’t know how to get to a restaurant where I was to have an appointment.

The Hong Kong policeman shouted at me and shooed me away.

Discourtesy toward foreigners seems universal among Hong Kong people.

Anywhere a tourist goes, he invariably meets discourteous or arrogant Hong Kong residents who never smile.

I was asking for the price of a pair of glasses at an optical shop in Hong Kong when the clerk said I shouldn’t be asking if I didn’t have any intention of buying.
