Last December, a massive construction waste landslip engulfed dozens of buildings in Shenzhen, swamping an area equivalent to more than 70 football fields, leaving debris up to 32 feet deep. More than 50 people were killed. The disaster highlighted the issue of illegal waste dumping and the lack of government monitoring on the mainland. But, while we may not have had the fatalities, this kind of illegal dumping also happens in Hong Kong, often at severe cost to the environment.
It’s that time of year again: time for the PRC’s two major annual political meetings. With the slowing down of the economy and exports, volatility in stock markets and increasing social tensions in China, Premier Li Keqiang warned of a “difficult battle” ahead over the coming year when he addressed the National People’s Congress. And that’s inevitably going to have a knock-on effect on Hong Kong. With us in the studio is political commentator, Joseph Cheng.
