Credited from: SCMP

  • Residents of Yau Tam Mei Tsuen, a farming community in Hong Kong, are facing displacement due to the Northern Metropolis megaproject.
  • Traditional communal life in the village, including family gatherings, is highlighted by residents like Lai Koon-shing and their struggles for future housing.
  • The development plan includes a large public hospital and housing to transform the area economically.
  • Many residents express concerns over compensation, with some hoping to be resettled together in nearby areas to maintain community bonds.
  • While some support the new development, they are wary of losing their homes and way of life without proper consultation from authorities.
