Hong Kong Poor Live in Tiny Cages
We were pretty shocked to see that even today, the poor in Hong Kong seem to live in tiny cages that contain all their worldly possessions, stacked with other cages within a tiny flat. Up to 18 strangers being squashed into a tiny 625 square foot flat with just one toilet to share.
Above, Mr. Kam-chuen used to be one of over 400,000 working poor who paid approximately US$167.6 to live in such an environment. According to him, it’s extremely uncomfortable, especially if you get the top bunk: “You hit your head on the ceiling.”
Watch this news report on the situation.
