ala Posted May 26, 2004 at 10:58 AM Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 at 10:58 AM How much do these ads reflect the reality in HK? If a lot, why banned? I assume they must reflect society, because even in Shanghai now, under puritan govt, there is a tendency to express the alternative. Esp with rising unemployment, misled faiths and disillusionment etc. hehe they all look pretty old for the age they list, or maybe I was just premature.

Quest Posted May 26, 2004 at 11:35 AM Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 at 11:35 AM the things they say seem pretty acceptable to me. but to promote them is another matter I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazu Posted May 26, 2004 at 04:09 PM Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 at 04:09 PM I'm quite sure the ads company knew it would be controversial, it's controversial so it was chosen to be the ads, and then banned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
林彪 Posted May 26, 2004 at 05:55 PM Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 at 05:55 PM I'm glad they banned it, actually. It's mind manipulation. I don't see what's so hot about some carbonated sugary sludge water anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian_Lee Posted May 26, 2004 at 07:31 PM Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 at 07:31 PM What is wrong with those messages? (1) Age 14 is not a kid: In the subtropical climate like HK, menstruation start as early as 10 years old among some girls. Of course, 14 is not a kid any more. (2) Bra Cup size 31A is not a shame: Better than American girls who have silicon implant at the age of 16. (3) Lesbain: What is wrong with lesbian? (4) Teacher-student love: Do you mean you guys/gals never secretly love your teacher in the High School years? (5) 10A excellence: Dancing, piano, comic drawing, fashion, writing, acting,.....etc all offer great potential in HK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian_Lee Posted May 27, 2004 at 01:24 AM Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 at 01:24 AM 调侃 is not a Cantonese vocabulary. 9 out of 10 people in Hong Kong will scratch their heads and try to find out what you mean when you said 调侃. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
