mall, almost
any imaginable places you will find them, but where you will find
the story about
the ordinary people like you and me? No where… nobody cares and want to
listen
hear and talk about the ordinary people like you and me, so, I have
created it

nobody
else..

PEOPLE?
absolutely yes, 110% sure and guaranteed!
HOW WILL THE ORDINARY SURVIVE ?
we do plan to run it as a passion, not as a business, using our own
time/efforts and money
as much as possible, also hoping that we will meet some one who is as
excited as we are
and can contribute some of his/her time to help us out, if god willing,
it really become the
place, then we have to think about it further, may be add some
advertisements on it
and also create merchandises that can be sold online as well as
franchised, this way
it should be good enough to carry on, I suppose…
WHERE IS THE ORDINARY SITUATED AND HOW IT IS RUN…?
the ordinary is owned by ISSL-MEDIA, a division of ISSL AND CO., (HK)
LIMITED
which is registered and located in HONG KONG SAR/CHINA, and run by
us/the ordinary
family as a passion from our humble office here in Kowloon city, Hong
Kong, our plan
is to make it the place for and of the ordinary people someday, by that
time, may be
we can afford to hire some real staff/technician and make it
big/successful, finger crossed..
until then, we will carry on…
