Interestingly, not all hotels in Hong Kong and Singapore are “China ready”. And perhaps even more interestingly, some in Taiwan are.

Yah, would be interesting to understand what that is supposed to mean. For some it could mean places to avoid possibly .

On the food wastage, while people from all nationalities can be guilty of taking too much food from buffets, I just saw what you describe at some hotels in Bali and it is terrible how greedy folks can be to then let huge amounts of food they loaded up on go untouched in the end.
