Chicken On The Run;  “Mister Softee” is dead; something new at McDonald’s in Admiralty Centre and when is a bar not a bar, the ICAC; the police and the Hong Kong countryside.  

Confused?  

Then you need to listen to the latest episode of Haldanes Law Matters as Jonathan Midgley interviews, Adrian Halkes, police inspector, solicitor, barrister, law firm owner, social commentator, “king of the Hong Kong restaurant and bar industries” (well that’s what Jonathan says,) and genuinely nice person.  

Arriving in Hong Kong in 1976 as one of the youngest police inspectors of the time, Adrian went on to study law and has been on the frontline of the development of liquor licensing and food & beverage law in Hong Kong for over three decades.  

A fascinating journey and a clear vision of Hong Kong’s future.  

And, yes, that involves getting out and about in Hong Kong more often.
