Hong Kong's McSleepers

A large number of homeless people sleeping on the street has long been been a problem in Hong Kong due to high rent and soaring property costs. In recent years, the opening of McDonald's 24-hour fast food restaurants all over the city have become popular alternatives for homeless people known as McRefugees or McSleepers to spend the night in a safer and more comfortable way than on the street. McDonald's Hong Kong said in a statement that it is accommodating to people staying long in the restaurant for their own respective reasons, while striking a good balance to ensure that customers enjoy their dining experience.
