Kurt N., HK: "I understand that HSBC is trying hard to get rid of the image of being a Chinese bank. That is why they changed the name from Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Corporation to HSBC. And that is why they call themselves a local bank, not a Chinese bank. But in their TV ads some time ago they just went too far. Remember? They portrayed a stupid Chinese businessman who served his guest ever bigger fish. In countries like Malaysia they had a good laugh at that Chinese idiot in the HSBC movie. But what irks me more is that I am contributing to HSBC Malaysia's earnings. Sent 60,000 US dollar to them from Hong Kong HSBC and lost about 600 dollars, even though they told me I would get a preferential rate as long as it's more than 50,000 US. Hope they spend the money they made on me for better ads."
