Wong said he was looking to withdraw some money from the ATM in New Territories at about 4 a.m. on Sunday, but could not as the two women were sleeping in the ATM room. He took the photo of them and uploaded it later. He told the media that the women could be from the mainland.

Some commenters on Facebook have condemned the tourists’ behavior. One such comment noted that the women probably chose to sleep in the ATM room because it had airconditioning and security for free.

Some netizens, however, defended the women.

One comment pointed out that if the two women were young western backpackers on a tour, “everyone would praise them for traveling around the world on a tight budget."

One comment also voiced concerned about the women’s rights.

"The man who took the picture violated the privacy of the two women," the comment said.
