Does Typhoon No.8 in Hong Kong have to go to work?

For Hong Kong people with tight work rhythm, typhoon signal No.8 is a rare opportunity to "enlarge the holiday" in a year.

According to government regulations, if typhoon signal No.8 is hoisted at work, workers should leave work in batches, and the government will give advance notice two hours in advance to facilitate smooth traffic. If it is suspended before going to work in the morning, enterprises and schools will automatically stop work and suspend classes, and Hong Kong stocks will also be suspended. When the No.8 typhoon signal is changed to the weaker No.3 typhoon signal, employees should return to the company within two hours.

The Transport Department announced that ferry services to and from several outlying islands would be suspended.

After the typhoon signal No.8 was issued, Ocean Park and Disneyland in Hong Kong were temporarily closed. The Tourism Commission announced that the "symphony of lights" light show was cancelled that night.

The Hong Kong Legislative Council also suspended its meeting at 3 pm.

The bus system immediately encrypts the frequency and transports the citizens home in time.
