The Wider Image: Hong Kong struggles to improve conditions in

Lee Kwan Kun, 60, sits in his “coffin” home in Hong Kong, China, August 15, 2024. Paying 2,300 HKD in rent, Lee has lived in the unit since 2006 and works odd jobs, including food delivery. Spending most of his time in the tiny space, he recalls earlier issues with bed bugs but says the environment is now manageable. Living alone, he describes ‘home’ as simply a place to stay.
