A dead Indonesian woman, a sick Indian rubber tree, and the two closely linked Hong Kong companies handed multimillion-dollar deals to care for it

Two companies separately awarded multimillion-dollar contracts to maintain trees in a public housing estate where a branch fell and killed a domestic helper last week are closely connected, while doubts have been raised as to whether one of the firms is even qualified to carry out the work, a Post investigation has discovered.

The owners of City Landscaping Company, which is responsible for risk assessment, and C.K. Garden Company, which is tasked with pruning, share the same residential address, set up companies together, and are involved in the same property transactions.
