My Bank Account

2 years on, but I can still vividly recall what happened when I first came to HK. Running out of money and desperately needed a bank account to get my salary in the first month, I went from HSBC to Hang Seng Bank and finally to DBS (oh, did I mention with insufficient supporting documents?). I stood at the counter labelled Treasury Banking and told the teller, "I am Singaporean and I need a bank account. HELP ME!" and shoved my passport and IC and employment contract to the teller. 10 minutes later, after the branch manager made a call to Singapore, I got my bank account.

Classic, isn't it? It's something I'll remember for life...
