Hong
Kong is among the most competitive business environments in the world.
Over 100,000 people live in cubicle apartments measuring only 40 square
feet. These spaces are overcrowded, sometimes with entire families
living in one room. They have no choice but to use these tiny spaces as a
living room, bedroom, kitchen and study. Entire families occupy one
bedroom apartments, while the smallest apartment is 28 square feet with
size of around 4′ x 7.’ While our city seems prosperous, many people
still live in unacceptable conditions. Sponsored by Society for Community Organization (SoCO), an ONG based in Hongkong, which defends basic rights for all, Benny Lam photographs from above the poverty that is all too real for these unlucky masses.
Society for Community Organization (SoCO)
(香港社區組織協會) is a non -governmental and human rights advocacy group in
Hong Kong. The group was founded in 1972 by church members. It is also
financially supported by donations from various churches, overseas
funding, the Community Chest and individuals. The group has organized
community social actions and civic education programs in order to
encourage the political participation of the population.
