I planned to have a driving written test at the end of this month. However, the government just announced that it would be cancelled due to severity of coronavirus disease. It is quite troublesome to plan something out. However, the government haven’t cancelled driving lessons yet, so If I had finished the written exam, I could have taken driving lessons in Hong Kong. The system is here requires we have to pass the written exam first, then we can proceed to learn how to drive.
How about in your home country? What’s the driving system like? Currently, I’m stuck at the written driving test, and I’m not sure when I will take it and I need to wait for the announcement from the government.
This year, I had planned to travel to France and the UK in April; however, because of the outbreak of the virus, I had to postpone the travel. And, I have no ideas when I will go traveling again. There are lots of uncertainties at the moment. Not just for me, for many people as well.
The unemployment rate has risen to 6.2 percent. A few weeks ago, I found a job, which was supposed to start from 31 July. However, due to the seriousness of the coronavirus, my supervisor contacted me via Whatsapp that the commencement date had been postponed, which I had anticipated it would happen.
Currently, stricter measures have been implemented, for example, a ban on dining in restaurants and bars, the size of public gathering will be limited to two people and it is mandatory to wear a mask outdoors, in order to reduce the transmission of the Coronavirus. What are these measures in your country? Are they similar?
A great amount of employees stop working at the moment due to CoVid. When we had holidays once in a while, this would be great. However, if the vacation lasts too long, like this, without being paid, we are worrying about the future and thinking when the virus will be eradicated. The extra-curricular activities at school and tutorial centre have been suspended.
From children’s perspective, they might feel care-free and free from worry as they don’t need to go to there to learn anymore. In the long term, it will have detrimental effect on children as well, as they have lost the interaction and communication with other children so as to develop their language and social skills

The government hasn't cancelled practical driving lessons yet, so if I had finished the written exam, I could have taken my driving lessons in Hong Kong. The system here requires students to pass the written exam first, and then we can proceed to the practical driving lessons.
How do people learn to drive in your home country? What’s the driving certification process like? Currently, I’m stuck at the written driving test. I’m not sure when I will be able to take it; I need to wait for the announcement from the government.
This past April, I had planned to travel to France and the UK, however because of the outbreak of the virus, I had to postpone this travel. I have no idea when I will travel again. There are lots of uncertainties at the moment - not just for me, but for many people as well.
Whenever I feel a bit upset in front of friends or especially loved ones, I pretend that nothing is wrong. Deep inside of my heart, though, I don’t feel quite happy.
