Question 1

Could you make a special mention for my daughter Lilian in your news section? She’s just placed first in the Hong Kong International Piano Competition (violinists aged 15 to 17 category) – and she’s a DB resident.

Accepted Answer

Congratulations to Lilian, and yes absolutely, we’d love to feature her in the news section! Please email our editor at rachel@arounddb.com (mailto:rachel@arounddb.com)and she will make this happen.

Question 2

You always provide the date of the monthly DB market in the news section of Around DB, which is helpful. Do you know how I might become a vendor?

Accepted Answer

We do! You fill out an application form at www.handmadehongkong.com/vendorinfo (www.handmadehongkong.com/vendorinfo)then, if your application is approved, you will be sent an invitation for registration. This is where you select your stall type and make your payment. The people at Handmade look for products that are friendly to the environment, local in providence or design, supportive of a good cause, not easily available in shops and not mass produced.

Question 3

I’m moving to DB this summer: is it true that the resort empties in July and there’ll be nothing to do?

Accepted Answer

It’s true that a lot of expat families head ‘home’ over the long vac but this doesn’t mean DB is deserted or that it shuts down. All the clubs, shops and restaurants stay open and, if you have kids, there are numerous summer camps for them to join. The weekly workshops organised by City Management continue throughout the summer and DB Summer Splashtopia, ‘Hong Kong’s biggest beach water park’, usually kicks off in late July at Tai Pak Beach.
