Hello, I'm a HKer having grown up in Canada. I believe the level of racism really depends on the specific neighborhoods. I personally feel it's virtually impossible not to have any experience of discrimination. Keep in mind a lot of whites do feel superior. It's in their blood! Also, racism doesn't have to come in the form of verbal attacks. I have seen a lot of angry/weird looks myself mostly from some elderly... Anyhow, just carry on with life and don't let it bother you! BUT NEVER BACK DOWN WHEN BEING BULLIED!!

Never feel you're inferior to them. On the contrary, you're superior to them. If you belong to an ethnic group, chances are you're bilingual. If you're an immigrant like me, you would have been exposed to life and culture outside of your adopted country. The local whites mostly have not seen the outside world and are uni-lingual. Most hard working immigrants own their own home while a lot of the local whites are renting because they are not as financially astute as most immigrants and are unable to save up for the down payment.

I have been here for 6 weeks, and most of the time I spent with my classmates (in a electrician training course), they are very helpful and I have not experienced anything related to discrimination at all.
Being born and raised in UK during the 80s and 90s I personally experienced extreme racism throughout my childhood and teenage years. I was often physically attacked on a daily basis and hospitalized due to the colour of my skin in school , even certain teachers would too therefore my childhood was dark. I understand that back then when there were no internet the world was more closed off therefore foreigners like me and my family would be very protective of our own people, in the 60s my uncle would face serious racial problems as he would get pelted with rocks on the streets for no reason. But as time goes by and the world opens up with online media access and social media people are more wary of how to treat one and other. In 2019 I went back to UK to visit my family after leaving and living in Hong Kong since 2005 I realized a lot has changed and people were much more welcoming and friendly towards me, it made me really happy and something popped into my mind saying "I'M FINALLY HOME"

As a Chinese American, I have encountered more discrimination in Europe than I ever have in the US. I was visiting London for the first time 10 years ago. The first night of my visit, I was assaulted while withdrawing money from an ATM in Piccadilly Circus. 3-4 young Brit men attacked me from behind, pummeling me in unison. I assumed it was a robbery, but realized it was a race based attack when they start yelling out “ Konichi wa” surmising my identity as Japanese. I yelled out “Get the f*ck off of me, I’m not Japanese.” Shocked by my response in American English, they backed off sheepishly. And said “ Sorry, mate. Are you alright”! ?! Racism can happen anywhere. Mostly subtle but unfortunately blatant and violent in some cases.

The thing is everywhere has racism. Hong Kong has racism from Hong Kong Chinese to Hong Kong Indians. While we should keep the conversation going, too much highlighting may have the opposite effect. It is similar to school bullying. They don't need a reason, they just do it because they wanted to do it. I just hope people don't take it too personal as trashes will always be trashes, we can do little about it, but we should treasure those who appreciate us as who we are.

You only need to read the McGregor report and subsequent CIPD reports or the Arday report and you will know racism is rife in UK. Institutional discrimination, racism and aggression is common in UK and its getting worse. The covid pandemic just made it more visible and gave these individuals the platform to air their racist views. Its good you had many interviews but I suggest you may want to chat with diverse people rather than Doctors and people in media etc. Perhaps a street interview in Chinatowns across UK.

I find it shocking how racist HKers are to minorities in HK. At least slavery has been abolished in the U.K. even if it is not free of racism.
Many years ago when I was in primary school in London, there were some racism there. There weren't many chinese people back then, only my cousins and I were in the school. I remember one day before school started in the courtyard, a Caucasian kid was standing near me with his mother. He started to make a slanty eye gesture and "ching chong" comments towards me. Back then teachers don't really know how to deal with racism themselves, so I had to stand up for myself most of the times. And that time I just beat that kid up right in front of his mother and of course I had to go the the headmaster's office later. But after you show them that you are not easy to pick on then they won't pick you. Of course I don't encourage other people using violence. But back then that's how I had to deal with things.
