I grew up feeling safe walking Hong Kong’s sidewalks under bamboo canopies.

The Tai Po fire was a tragedy made deadlier by inequality — not a craft that has shaped Hong Kong’s identity. My op-ed in @theglobeandmail.com

Opinion: If Hong Kong’s heritage is to blame for the Tai Po fire, it wasn’t the bamboo
People were quick to fault Hong Kong’s famous bamboo scaffolding for the deadly fire at Wang Fuk Court, but the city’s deep inequality is a far likelier culprit
