FYI,
I'm also proposing a "Tech shopping" meetup on Wednesday, on Development Day 1. This will bring folks to the main tech shopping area of Hong Kong, Sham Shui Po, where you can get these plugs, cell phones, computer parts, or whatever electronics you may want.

Hi.
Are there Europlug/Schuko to BS1363 adapters available in Hong Kong? I couldn't find any in my country. Where can I buy one for myself?

All of them would incur a roaming charge. See Andrew Lih's comments here for suggestions on buying a local SIM: https://www.facebook.com/events/425224324154778/permalink/640129879330887/
