Today I want to show you some newspaper stall in Hong Kong! The following information by wiki:

"The first newspaper file in Hong Kong appeared in 1904 and was located at the Peak Cable Car. In the early days of Hong Kong, the newspaper was in English, and the half-mountain and the top of the mountain were fluent in English. Before the newspaper file appeared, the newspaper was sold by the newspaper vendor."

"The Hong Kong newspapers were already standardized in the 1960s. The design was drafted by John Browett, a Sentinel-Poly Police Superintendent at that time, and later re-launched the government gazette. In the 1960s and 1970s, there were newspaper files around the streets of Hong Kong. Especially the tea house is at the door."

今天我想給大家介紹一些在香港的報攤，又名報紙檔！ 以下信息由wiki提供：

"香港的第一份報紙於1904年出現，位於山頂纜車站下面，在香港的早期，報紙是英文的，半山和山頂的居民英文流利，在報紙檔出現之前，報紙是由報販叫賣的。"

"香港報紙在二十世紀六十年代已經有規範， 該設計由當時的哨兵警察總監John Browett起草，後來在《政府憲報》正式公佈在，在二十世紀六十年代和七十年代，香港街頭都有報紙檔案，特別是在茶樓門口。"

In the past ten years, technology has developed, and many people's reading habits have changed. The usage of electronic PDAs, e-books, mobile phones, computers, are more common. So paper media is very hard to alive. However, these newspapers stall will still be found in every district in Hong Kong!

在過去十年中科技發展日新月異，許多人的閱讀習慣都發生了變化，使用電子PDA、電子書、手提電話、電腦的更為常見，所以紙媒已經很難生存。不過，仍會在香港的每個地區找到這些報攤！

Another competitor for newspaper stall is the convenience store. You can see that every convenience store also has a variety of newspapers and magazines, but people often like the humanity of the local newspaper stall!

另一個對於報攤來說的競爭對手便是便利店了，你看看每間便利店也有琳琳種種的報紙雜誌，可是，往往人們就是喜歡報紙檔的人情味！

On the other hand, the collective memory of newspaper stall is the comic book when you read in the childhood. The following one is my favorite comic weekly magazine, that have a inside A2 size poster. I collected them all week by week, all of the contents are Japan comic!

另一方面，報紙攤的集體回憶是童年時看的漫畫雜誌，以下是我最喜歡的漫畫周刊，裡面有一張A2大小的海報，每週都收集它們，因為它的內容是當年最新的日本漫畫！

After the weekly comics were stopped, we bought EXAM. The printing outlook was more similar to the Japanese manga magazine. In those years, because of too many storages, they were all abandoned!

漫畫周刋停刋後就到EXAM了，外形印刷更像日本的漫畫雜誌，那些年因為儲藏太多被罵要全部掉棄了！

As a local special style, I hope that the newspaper block will continue to survive. In fact, the service can be transformed. Now most of the newsstands will also sell cigarettes, drinks and so on!

作為一個本土特式，希望報紙擋能夠繼續生存下去，其實服務可以轉型的，現在大部份的報攤也會同時售賣香煙、飲品等等！
