King Lam Estate

King Lam Estate is a public housing estate located in Tseung Kwan O, Hong Kong. It is currently newsworthy due to an incident involving the death of over 100 fish during a pond cleaning operation. The incident occurred on Monday when a cleaning contractor, Fai Kee Environmental Cleaning, removed fish from a pond to facilitate maintenance. However, the contractor allegedly failed to provide a temporary space with adequate aeration, leading to the deaths. Hong Kong police have launched an investigation into suspected animal cruelty. A 51-year-old supervisor from Fai Kee Environmental Cleaning was arrested and later released on bail, required to report back to police next month. The incident highlights concerns about animal welfare during maintenance operations in public spaces.
