Cheap and disposable

RIP HK

it was a culture and traditional thing and yet suitable for the landscape.

They were really proud of it. I guess no more now

when the cream cropper workers consist of financial industry lickers no talent of governance can be expected

Residents under similar project already raised the alarm the netting was very flammable.

But the councilor dismissed them as demonic rumor,pushing the project moving.

3 arrests? woah... someone started the fire?

News said humidity was low yesterday, which helped the fire.

sad tho that this building SOP which worked FOR YEARS.......centuries even maybe (for sure i think)
has to go
cos of one major incident
must understand one thing........whenever changes like this come onto the blueprint.....PRICES WILL SHOOT UP
it's all about costs

possible death may reach 300+
national tragedy level...

More in depth coverage by Hongkies in Cantonese.

Each unit had to contribute HKD160k-180k for the major renovation. Paid huge money to have their home burnt down and lost of family members in the blaze

Scaf folding using Bamboo is unique construction to HK and history. They are proud of it. Don't think it will ban.

Others then bamboo material, they find out many polystyrene boards lying around blocking the entrance and the window. This are highly flammable material. The boss and some worker already been arrested.

The main problem for this fire spread so fast is because they scaffolding all the block. With each block is so near, fire easily wind blow to another block.

They should complete 1 block at a time. Take down the scaffolding from the completed block before do another block.

how is that even possible?
