SIMPLE BUT QUALITY LIFE
People in the UK like to sit under the Sun and chat with others with a cup of coffee in winter or a big glass of beer in summer. It reflects their attitude of trying to enjoy their life. Oppositely, Hong Kong people do not have time to do so and some would even think that it is a waste of time. They devote most of their time in work. Meanwhile, it implies they are materialistic. Work is more important than rest and leisure. They can hardly balance their life. That is a reason why Hong Kong people are more pressurized as well.
People enjoy the sunshine a lot.
Tables and chairs may be moved to the road on Saturdays and Sundays. So that people can enjoy their alfresco food and drink.
Drinking beer in the afternoon is usual in Western countries.
