An APM shopping mall handout photo made available 28 May 2011 shows Kate Bevan, 21, a British Kate Middleton look-a-like, instructing a group of Chinese children on how to curtsy with books balanced on their heads, at a Will & Kate Royal Wedding 'Princess Royal Manner Class' at APM shopping mall in Kwun Tong, Kowloon, Hong Kong, China, 22 April 2011. The mall, which spent around HK$150,000.00 (GBP11,703.22) on official Royal Wedding souvenir items all ordered from the UK, hopes that the exhibition will drive sales at the mall. The exhibition will be held until 05 May 2011. It has been nearly fourteen years since Britain handed Hong Kong back to China, and memories of the British colonial era are fading fast. Apart from in the British expatriate community, the Hong Kong Chinese are showing little interest in the Royal Wedding. Apart from in the bar district which is frequented by foreigners, no special celebrations in the territory are planned, and memorabilia is hard to come by - apart from at the APM mall in Kwun Tong.
