halo all
just got something worth mentioning via discussing the issue with my pals
A wikipedian who's a transports-issue-holic mentioned that the font that Mr
Fung use in his image
is actually the one MTR uses in their station
as an All right reserved font, this may be a tort to MTR's copyright.....
so many issues to be clarified if Mr Fung really wanna launch something
against Citybank I wonder
