Shenzhen
Shenzhen is one of Brisbane’s sister cities, and is located just outside the border of Hong Kong and is a part of mainland China.
I’ve been to Tijuana before and thought the hustling there was interesting. Nothing however, could prepare me for the ferocity and tenacity of a Chinese sales person chasing for a dollar.
I think I need to learn what ‘No thank you’ in Mandarin is, because I’m sure ‘No’ in English must roughly translate to ‘please follow me and continue to harass me’ in Chinese. The worst case we had was a bunch of Teenagers who I’m sure were eyeing off our bags who were trying to get us to go to certain stores and buy this and that.
After walking 5 levels and continually saying ‘please go away’ we ended up sort of standing in a circle and waited for a while until they cleared.
It’s ok though, Shenzhen police are on the case and give fair warning.
Indeed, I will keep myself well avoid of theitves.
