Backpacker's bag back
On January 21, when I was having breakfast with four friends at McDonald's in Nathan Road near Hillwood Road, I suddenly found my handbag, which contained platinum and gold ornaments I had bought in Hong Kong, a few thousand dollars, credit cards, a camera, a portable phone and passports, was missing.
I was so desperate and helpless at that time. Suddenly four officers in plain clothes appeared with my stolen bag. They had also arrested a foreigner.
I went with them to Tsim Sha Tsui Police Station where I went through the necessary formalities. My friends and I were deeply impressed by the speedy detection of the case, and the politeness and the professionalism displayed by those officers. A police force of such high quality is the pride of Hong Kong. My heartfelt thanks.
