Hongkong har, vid de senaste veckorna, haft så kallade “tredje vågen” av coronapandemin. Därför har Hongkongs orienteringsförbund (Orienteering Association of Hong Kong, OAHK) valt att ställa in alla tävlingar inom 2020.
Hongkongska mästerskapet i orientering (Hong Kong Annual Orienteering Championships), som brukar ske över jullovet, är också inställd i år.
Inte just nu—du som utländska resande får inte resa till Hongkong än, även för Hongkongborna finns kravet på 14-dagars karantän om de reser tillbaka från utanför Kina-fastland, Macao eller Taiwan.
Det finns dock kanske klubbtävlingar utanför OAHK-tävlingar, som klubbarna är fria att anordna inom coronarestriktionens ram. Håll koll på vad som gäller för inresa om du vill planera en semester till Hongkong eller någonstans annat i Asien.
Asia is a continent of street food—you’d be greeted by endless street food stalls wherever you go. To spend a few coins on hawkers and savour the street food, is a quintessential part of Asian life. Here, we list three street food scenes in Asia you should try on your next orienteering trip!
If you have a Thai friend and you’re visiting Bangkok, chances are that your friend would be asking you, “have you tried the street food?” Street food is indeed omnipresent in cities throughout Thailand—from street vendors, to the bustling night markets, to the characteristic floating markets on boats—these places are all well frequented by Thais and tourists alike.
Noodles like Pad Thai are frequent items at street vendors. Coconut-based snacks, Malay roti, and fried insects (if you dare!) are other items that you can often buy from hawkers.
The Thailand International Orienteering Championship and other events in December is a good chance for you to try these street delicacies.
The vast and multicultural archipelago country of Indonesia has a vibrant street food scene, a mix of Indonesian, Chinese and Dutch influences. Street stalls on wheels, whereby the hawker can paddle around and sell, are a common sight, providing affordable nourishment to the people.
Like in Thailand, here you’ll find main dishes like fried noodles (mi goreng) and chicken congee (bubur ayam), as well as snacks like pancakes and drinks like palm wine (tuak).
Although the Jakarta City Race will not take place this year, stay tuned for future events in Indonesia so you can experience these dishes first hand!
Street hawkers in Hong Kong are, unfortunately, not as many as the aforementioned two countries as the government here considers these as nuisance on street cleanliness and therefore stopped issuing licenses decades ago. Hawkers now mainly sell in fixed shops along the street, or in stalls inside shopping malls. You can still find individual mobile stalls on the street.
Street food in Hong Kong is part of city’s identity. Fish balls, egg waffles and fried chestnuts are a few examples of the many tasty snacks you can buy from roadside shops.
Hong Kong orienteering events might be cancelled for the rest of 2020, but you’ll sure get a chance to try the street food of the metropolis!
