On the other hand Hong
Hong Kong - it's not just Victoria Peak, Big Buddha and thousands of designer boutiques. It is also dirt, homeless and ordinary people, who have neither the time nor the money to Hong Kong.
The first record of the homeless in Hong Kong appeared in 1977, at that time, the city had about 1,000 people who had to sleep on the street.
Hong Kong's GDP is around 40 million per capita, and yet, about half of the homeless say that the failure to pay rent - this is the main reason for their current state.
In residential areas, almost every street can be found begging.
The main habitat of the homeless are Mongkok (Mongkok), Tsim Sha Tsui (Tsim Sha Tsui) and Sham Shui Po (Sham Shui Po).
More than half of them need medical attention.
In Hong Kong, there is no specific law that would prohibit sleeping on the street, but one of the main objectives of urban services is to clean the streets from these people.
City authorities take out things with their homeless people, wake from the speakers, there were cases when people poured water on the night that they woke up and left.
In some places, even sprayed powder itchy, so that people could not sleep there.
Another important problem is poverty.
One in five people in Hong Kong live below the poverty line.
In related news, a lot of talk about the fact that people are living better and richer. In this case, the number of poor every year becomes more and more.
Hong Kong is the world's largest gap between rich and poor.
40 per cent of Hong Kong residents live in homes subsidized by the authorities.
One in three elderly have to fight for a job just to meet their basic food needs.
For most of us, things like food, water and warm bed are common. But not for them.
Nearly 1, 5 million people in Hong Kong live in poverty.
These people have to get up at dawn and go to bed after midnight to perform not the most pleasant job.
