    I wish they focused on the poorer people and families, instead of people who were well off. All of them seemed to live comfortably... I'd like to know how the poorer class dealt with COVID restrictions.

    Hey SCMP, thanks for this doom and gloom piece of how tough things were in HK in the last 3 years. But we already know because we lived through it. How about you do some investigative reporting on who profited the most in HK on these restrictions. Which construction companies were hired by the HK govt to build all these useless white elephant quarantine centers. Or who really owns Indicaid the RAT test company. And why from 2020 to the beginning of 2022 only over priced RAT tests from certain specific companies were accepted when screening visitors to elderly nursing homes.
