THE SLUM ON THE DITCHYUEN LONG #10

On the outskirts of Yuen Long, among well-made buildings is a

small refugee ghetto. The landlord owns four structures: three

for residents and one for ISS clients - the difference is obvious.

Four Pakistani and four Bangladeshi share a couple of two-

bedroom units. They repaired the leaky roof and back fence

after the landlord refused to spend money on improvements.

Yet together they pay more than 9000$ for this dump. Between

the wooden walls and metal sheets rats scurry at night … other

animals slither in from the ditch. A newborn baby lives here too.
