Hong Kong people are generally theoretically weak. It is because not many of them, especially the brighter ones nowadays prefer to take up the arts or humanity where critical thinking, theoretical and philosophical ideas are discussed. Hong Kongers, especially the X and Yers I think go into business and the science, so there is an imbalance. Hong Kong society is imbalance in the sense that there is too much emphasis on money making, the practical, the surface and quick benefits but little emphasis on value, the arts, long-term planning and benefit.
As a result, Hong Kongers struggle to think outside of the box because they weren't trained to do that. There is also a selfish thinking of, "As long as I make it rich and well-off who cares about social injustices and violation of rights?"
The latest topics about Hong Kong is 八十後 and 高鐵.
