Welcome to Hong Kong! Some conferences do, but then it is a big courtesy. The Wikimania team advises to buy an Octopus card to make your journeys and payments a smooth experience. So the answer is implicit: there won't be day passes for Wikimaniacs. On the one hand the network seems too extensive to offer that, on the other hand there are more than 200 public transport companies in Hong Kong, there is no single pass for all of them. Octopus, which is a RFID based, neutral payment system is the best operability you can get. Regards, Manuel
