Beijing’s top man in Hong Kong visits ‘cage home’ and medical service as part of drive to ‘listen directly’ to the people


By Cat WangDanny Mok

Beijing’s top representative in Hong Kong stressed the need to solve the city’s housing problems on Thursday as he kicked off a week-long community outreach drive by his office to “listen directly to the grass roots” on the eve of the country’s National Day.

Luo Huining, director of Beijing’s liaison office in the city, visited at least five places on the first day of the effort, meeting a range of people such as young tech entrepreneurs, elderly residents seeking free medical help, fishermen plying their boats and “cage home” tenants in Mong Kok to see their living conditions.
