Eh, night photography is a big & wide enough topic, but generally, a tripod is necessary. However, aside from the one taken at the Avenue of Stars, the rest were handheld. So, I had to bump up the ISO so that shutter speed don't go too low. For one thing, the streets of HongKong are so well-lighted, you could get away from using the tripod sometimes.
