masuk Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Reminds me of a pleasant surprise on arrival at Hong Kong airport. As a farang pensioner, I was entitled to their 'Octupus' Card which gives a 30% cut on bus, train, tram and ferry services. Same applied for a few other places of interest, which in Thailand would have cost me more than treble the locals' price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
