Warner Cheuk Wing-hing

Warner Cheuk Wing-hing is the Deputy Chief Secretary of Hong Kong. He is currently newsworthy due to his involvement in the government's response to the aftermath of a devastating fire at Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po. The fire, which occurred nearly five months ago, resulted in a significant loss of life and displaced thousands of residents. Cheuk has been responsible for communicating the government's plans for residents to retrieve their belongings from the fire-ravaged building, including a controversial three-hour time limit. He has also addressed concerns regarding accessibility for elderly residents, with discussions around providing hi-tech aids to help them navigate the stairs. The government's handling of the situation, including the timeline for allowing residents to return and the support offered, is under scrutiny, making Cheuk's role particularly relevant.
