About Us
- Who's behind this paper?That's what we're trying to find out. The people who actually do the work are a group of crazies who work at Cyberport in Pok Fu Lam, Hong Kong. Various real journos pop in and throw us a box of Krispy Kremes now and then. We have a revolving editorship policy which can basically be defined as "The CEO is Whoever's in the Office and Conscious".
