Kashy Keegan opens up about his post-HKTV music career and tackles our Hong Kong Citizenship Quiz It’ll be the fourth Thursday of November tomorrow. While, to most students in Hong Kong, that just means its another week closer to finals, the fourth Thursday of November also happens to be Thanksgiving.
For those who are unaware of the holiday, Thanksgiving is a huge deal in the states where families and friends gather together to be thankful for the harvest and the abundance of food. While North Americans and Canadians living in Hong Kong certainly still celebrate Thanksgiving (the latter group on a different date), here’s what the general Hong Kong public thinks of the holiday, based on opinions gathered over our years of living here.

- Food: We honestly don’t really care as long as there are 3 dishes and soup.
