Jewellery, cash, photo albums and keepsakes linked to departed loved ones among items reclaimed by residents
Hon, a retired part-time taxi driver, had hoped to find a bag of change he kept during his work shifts, but “nothing much was there” in his charred flat in Wang Sun House.
His daughter Ice Hon wanted to retrieve items passed down from her late mother.
“Dust and ruins are everywhere. It feels like the aftermath of a war,” she said of her childhood home.
“Originally, I was thinking of looking for some photo albums … I care about these things. But nothing … nothing was left.”
