Hand inspection of film

On a trip I'm planning for next spring, I expect to be flying out of
(and therefore going through security) at the following Asian aiports:

Osaka, Japan
Hong Kong
Hanoi (changing planes in Bangkok)

Anybody know at which of the above airports I'd be able to get a hand
inspection of film for my 35mm camera?

Thx,
Doug

I doubt it will be any problem in HK.

Personally, when I was shooting film, I'd routinely carry several
hundred rolls of film through 3-4 carry-on machines on each trip, many
times a year, and never had a single frame damaged. Not one. Even when
going through very rustic airports on small islands in 3rd World
countries, etc., none of my film received the slightest damage, and I
shoot for a living!

Interesting. What speed do you use? On past trips, I sent ASA200
through the machines but hand checked the 800.

Here's the deal... the big decision has finally been made. Myself and
my girlfriend of many years are getting married early next year.

Hurray hurray.

We're getting married in my own European country first, with my
family. Then we want to get married in Hong Kong, with her family.

Anyone know more about this? Bureaucrats here are, as usual,
wonderfully vague and don't seem to know themselves.

Will getting married in two different countries (same two people
obviously be a problem as technically, in Hong Kong, we will be
married already. ...?

Thank you.

Needed to add obviously, my girlfriend is Hong Kong Chinese.

I did the same last year (married my Malaysian Chinese girlfriend) both
here in Germany and in Malaysia. In Malaysia we had the Chinese tea
ceremony. See my travelogue he

Congratulations!

Did you have an official, legal wedding in Malaysia (the bureaucratic
thing at a city hall or something) ???

Congratulations! Do you know if the ceremony was Hakka, Teochew or Fujian?
I've heard there's a difference in the tea ceremony depending.

I was just wondering but how do they know? Do they in HK ask if you are
married?
Thank you.
