If we could use one word to sum up life in Hong Kong, many of us are sure to select ‘hectic’. It really feels like there is so little downtime in the city, especially considering that according to <\/span>Stats Asia<\/span><\/a>, people in the city worked an average of 2,606 hours in 2015, the most out of any other city.

Believe it or not, statistics like these ones can have an impact on your health insurance. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
