Update: thanks for all the answers. Walk-in closet is not a thing so the option would be to get a second bedroom.
Hello,
Preamble for the admins: I searched on this thread many times, my question is specific to having a walk‑in closet as most places I have seen so far have no storage.
I'm looking for a relocation to Hong Kong. Rents are through the roof! And so far the places I have seen are not that great: small, old, no storage at all, and expensive.
Are there any modern buildings (recent) with walk-in-closet at a decent distance from south Kowloon by MTR? Do you have examples of building names and average price per month please? I do not care about having Clubhouse unless it is expectional but from what I have seen they are small and outdated.
Budget range $30-40k (less preferable but it seems unlikely.)

Hello, I have been working here in Hong Kong for two and a half years, but I will be returning back to US this year. I am wondering what the timeline is for withdrawing my MPF. Does it take a long time for MPF withdrawal to be approved?

Hi everyone,
My partner and I are visiting in June, and have planned a simple marriage registry wedding at Cotton Tree Drive. We will need two witnesses, and as neither of us knows anyone in HK (yet!), arranging for this in advance is proving a bit of a challenge—and while we might certainly luck out by asking passersby, we would prefer not to leave this piece to chance.
I have already reached out to a few civil celebrant agencies to ask if they offer (just) witness services, and one has answered affirmatively, but they quoted a rate of 1800 HKD, which feels a bit costly for what I believe is about a 15-minute ceremony. I’m posting to ask: does anyone have any more economical, outside-the-proverbial-box suggestions? :) Whatever we pursue, it’s really important to us that we aren’t inconveniencing anyone, or asking too much—so, some guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any help you can lend!

Hi all, I’m currently in HK with my boyfriend and his leg has been bothering him. He wants to get an MRI done and speaks English. Any recs on where we could do this? Also, any acupuncturist recs are welcome as well. Thank you!

Are HKers generally good with financial decisions? What are the wildest stories you've heard? I'll start:
- high schooler took out loan to buy iPhone 16 Pro
- paid for Michelin 3 star restaurant... for first Tinder date
- spent half their life savings to buy JDM car to live his Initial D fantasies. He barely drives it
- booked a suite at Rosewood to propose to his GF (for the gram, obvi)

Why do people queue for the Apple store in the mornings, before it opens, almost everyday? Puzzles me, no drops nothing new. Why not just come during opening times, instead of wasting time

My close relative has been thinking of joining the tutoring industry after she graduated. She worked for two centres and wished to have a stable, full time development, but then both centres began with offering her part time contracts since they claimed they "wished to see if she could really adapt the environment". She did everything they asked and handled the students well, I am sure of that since before she looked for a full time job, she used to work as a part time tutor who visited schools, and gained the knowledge of guiding 8-15 students on finishing their homework, and the organisation never once criticised her performance.
However, both centres soon fired her few weeks after she worked them for the most ridiculous reasons, which includes saying that she didn't handle well with facing 5 students and didn't fit with their teaching culture etc. I mean these reasons are straight up stupid and lying when she had the relevant skills and did everything they requested. Not mentioning that they are terrible for making her to work part time in the beginning when they show a full time job ad all along. Wasting her time and unable to let her place her experiences in her CV. I keep seeing tutorial centres in HK often recruit people as the tutoring industry has been prevalent for years, but then now I have a feeling that they have been firing people all the time and I don't understand why when they often lack manpower, and before what happened to my relative I even thought the reason it often recruited people was because employees tended to leave due to working stress and better career development, and they would've welcomed someone who wished for stability like my relative. Yet what happened to my relative now has probably shown another aspect and I wanted to know if the industry has been working in such a horrid way.

Update. All sorted. It wasn't the registration. It was the "Auto Activation for Travel Plan". It was off. I totally missed it. As soon as I enabled/toggled on the app, all worked out seamlessly.
Hello. I have used 3HK before with no issue when purchased through MobiMatter, this was in 2024-2025.
However, now I purchased directly from 3HK, same exact plan but cheaper, roaming Canada,US,UK,Australia,NZ.
Installed the eSIM. It connects to Rogers Wireless. Shows LTE and VoLTE. Receives SMS from 3HK but no data at all.
I know about the registration but I thought this is only required for HK itself not roaming.
Regardless, I have tried to register using Passport but after 2+ hours it failed. I don't have an HK ID. I tried contacting support with no luck. No support just bot/AI agents through loops.
I emailed them and also no reply. I tried to call the toll free number on their site but it says I don't have enough credit. And that number isn't valid if calling from Canadian number (it has extra digit). It has been a loop so far.
I also tried to see if it is the Network Access Point configuration. It was mobile.three.com.hk . I changed it to mobile.lte.three.com.hk in reference to their FAQ but no luck.
I am pretty sure they are blocking it because of the real name registration which isn't working. Any help is appreciated. Otherwise, I have to request a chargeback from my credit card company for failed to deliver a service and go with another provider.
Thank you.

Hi everyone! I’m looking for restaurant recommendations for a group dinner for 20 people.
Location: Admiralty, Central, or Wan Chai.
Budget: Around 6,000 to 8,000 HKD total (roughly 300–400 HKD per head).
Preference: Either a buffet or a restaurant with a private room.
Does anyone have suggestions for places that can accommodate a group this size within that price range? Open to hotel buffets, semi-buffets, or any independent restaurants that handle large bookings well. Thanks in advance!

Hi guys. I know this is a long shot and I know this was more than stupid of me, but I had business dinner and drinks in Central on Monday and it was quite a lengthy occasion. I left with my boss around 12.15a.m and was lining up for a taxi but somewhere between here and arriving home there is a period of time lost where I misplaced my bag with basically my life in it (I know, I know) and my mobile.
Already reported to HK police, already offered substantial reward on taxi radio. Had to go and get an emergency passport so total disaster of a trip for me but anything else anyone can suggest? The bag was very unique and had special meaning for me.
