About
ISS EastPoint is the property management company for Wang Fuk Court, a housing estate in Tai Po, Hong Kong. The company is currently under scrutiny due to its involvement in a devastating fire that occurred on November 26 of the previous year, resulting in 168 fatalities and displacing nearly 5,000 residents. An independent committee is conducting an inquiry into the blaze, with a significant focus on ISS EastPoint's actions and adherence to fire safety regulations. Recent hearings have revealed that staff members allegedly deactivated the fire safety system, including fire alarms, without engaging a registered contractor, potentially violating legal requirements. Furthermore, a property management worker testified to being unaware that fire alarms were deactivated after the hose reel system was shut down for water tank repairs. The inquiry aims to determine the extent of ISS EastPoint's responsibility in the tragedy and whether negligence or regulatory breaches contributed to the severity of the fire.
