             Hong Kong's Soaring Housing Prices Hit City's Poorest

   by Zlatica Hoke

   Rising housing prices in Hong Kong are squeezing out low-income
   residents and often force them into unsafe and illegal living
   arrangements. Many have built rickety dwellings on rooftops of highrise
   buildings or rent them from shady landlords. Residents of these slums
   have poor protection against extreme heat and inclement weather.
   Zlatica Hoke reports the city government is unable to meet the growing
   need for affordable public rental housing.
