Where can I submit a complaint against a private educational institute?

I'm in a pickle, and really need help.

I want to complain about a private educational institution. I registered to study one of their short courses in December. They pushed it back to February and then to April. But now, it seems they still won't be starting the course. I've not been informed of the reason, but most probably it's because the registration quota is not being met.

They are ignoring my emails and they only took down my number to callback, but I've yet to receive any response.

Where can I officially launch a complaint about them?? I want my money back

Chinese funeral

My grandmother passed away and we’re going to the funeral service. I don’t know what to expect and it seems trivial, but I also don’t know what would be appropriate to wear. Do you wear black like in the west?

Also if someone couldn’t make it, would it be appropriate to send flowers? Please help, my siblings and I don’t want to offend anyone in the family.

Edit - An additional question. If anyone knows of a Hong Kong based flower shop, feel free to share. 🙏

What was British rule like?

For Hong Kongers, what was life like under it?

Do you think it was good that Britain had Hong Kong, or do you think it was bad?

Thoughts, please!

Anonymous Survey

Hi, I'm a third-year Computer Science student and I'm currently writing my dissertation. As part of that, I'm doing an anonymous online survey about the use and opinions of Social Media. I specifically would like to hear from Activists, Journalists, Refugees/Asylum Seekers and Politicians, although anyone is welcome, so I'd be grateful if you could take 10 minutes to complete it. There's an information sheet and consent form at the beginning that goes through how the data will be used so feel free to read that: https://forms.office.com/e/6QfNVnmMip

Seeking Recommendations: Trusted Tailor for Women's Office Wear Skirts in Hong Kong

Hi everyone,

I'm reaching out to see if anyone is familiar with tailor shops in Hong Kong that specialize in women's skirts. My girlfriend is having trouble finding skirts that fit her well in regular fashion stores, so she's interested in getting one tailor-made. She's not looking for anything as elaborate as wedding attire, just standard skirts suitable for daily office wear.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Acceptable forms of ID for nightclubs and bars

Hi guys, I'm just wondering if I go to nightclubs or any bars. Will they accept my Canadian ID (not passport, it's just a card, like driver's license)? I don't want to bring my passport with me all the time. Thanks!

Chronic sinusitis

Hello friends!

I have had chronic sinusitis all my life. I’ve had a sinus surgery when I was younger but it seems like it’s worse than ever before.

With the seasonal changes it’s truly terrible right now, with the high humidity outside and freezing air conditioning inside it feels like I’m dying. It’s mostly affecting my right sinuses. The amount of pressure in my cheeks is insane and it feels like my teeth are about to fall out and my ear is constantly aching.

I’ve been to my GP and an ENT but both just prescribed the same old treatments that I’ve used all my life. Steroid nasal spray, irrigation, anti-inflammatory meds, antihistamines and as a last resort antibiotics should it be a sinus infection.

How are my fellow chronic sinusitis sufferers managing this horrible disease? Any hints, tips, recommendations, remedies, advice, ANYTHING, that could help me get back to normal life.

It’s really draining me so much to have to deal with this and I’m desperate for a solution.
