Interview three
Excuse me sir
I'm a student of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and I'm carrying
out a survey
May I ask you a few questions? Sure
Where are you from? Australia
Is this your first visit to Hong Kong; is Hong Kong your only destination?
Well it's my first time here
and I was in Tokyo, Taipei and then Seoul
As a matter of fact, I'll be leaving for Bangkok tomorrow, and going to Kuala Lumpur
and Singapore next week
Wow, it certainly is an exotic trip, going to so many Asian cities
Which would you say, could be described as a world-class city?
Among those I've been to so far
Mmm
I'd say Tokyo in terms of technology
Tokyo is not only ahead of the other Asian cities but actually ahead of the
world
You can see the most advanced facilities and inventions everywhere
even in the wash room
I've seen this toilet that helps to clean the user and itself
What impressed me is how technology is so much part of everybody's life
So you mean technology is not a privilege just of the rich?
Exactly
and the general public have a more convenient, easier life
It's high-tech everywhere at an affordable price
and Tokyo is now as much a trend setter as Paris or London
More Japanese designers are gaining international recognition ... and they always
surprise the world
That's right
in Tokyo you can also see an interesting juxtaposition, and fusion of the east and
west

Well, thank you very much for your time; I hope you have a wonderful trip
