You'd be surprised how bad a lot of people from HK are at English and Mandarin. But I agree with the point you're making.
As for the 4 tones thing... just count yourself lucky that you can manage it, lol. One by one, I agree it's very easy, but putting them together is VERY tough. It's like a tongue twister; each word is very easy to pronounce, but put together, they're a b***h!
