Owners of fire-hit Tai Po homes seek answers over compensation, state of flats

Residents of Wang Fuk Court, a Hong Kong apartment complex that survived a deadly November fire which killed 168 people, are seeking clarity on compensation and the condition of their flats. Homeowners had waited months for an extraordinary general meeting, which was finally held via live broadcast at multiple locations. The meeting’s agenda, organized by the government-appointed administrator Hop On Management Company, includes reports on the handover process from previous owners and updates on Wang Chi House. However, residents expressed disappointment that their requested inclusion of a building examination report was excluded. One resident, Toby Wong, criticized the exclusion of items they had proposed after prolonged waiting.
