The Cheung Chau Bun Festival is a traditional event in Hong Kong believed to date back to the 18th or 19th century, when it was first held to celebrate the end of a plague. Also known as the Da Jiu Festival, the focal point of the annual event is a popular race where competitors scramble up a tower covered with buns. Over the years, the festival has seen several disruptions including an accident during one bun-snatching competition, which triggered a 26-year suspension that was only lifted after safety standards were improved.

My condolences to the millions of Hongkongers 🇭🇰 who lost their voting rights and freedom of speech after being brutally crushed by the 3vil Chinese regime 🇨🇳
My condolences to your parent who gave birth to you and lost their interest of having another child after being disappointed and crashed by your evil and brutal brain.

Foot buns 🤮
They’re wrapped in plastic bags
I am wondering how many buns end up in the tip. It's environmental unfriendly.
Those are not real bun; and many of them will be reused
@@clchat but our government banned plastic

GREED
You mean USA ?
Yup, Greed that is now making them desperate, greed that caused them to have a massive debt of 34.5 trillion dollars.
I wouldn't say a festival is greedy, but western invaders are endlessly plundering the wealth of other countries is.
You should be ashamed of your age, which may not have much left, but is still like third grade.
What a shame.
Downgrading everything in the name of safety. Hong Kong is so much like the West now.
