Hong Kong Construction


Construction in Hong Kong is pretty unique, and pretty amazing. I also assume there is no OSHA here. On the top you see two pictures of a man working on "scaffolding" which has been set up about 15+ stories up on a residential building. At least he's got a safety harness (tied to the scaffolding).
On the left is just a typical example of a building which is about to undergo renovations, as it's just been covered in scaffolding and the signature green netting. In seeing the assembly of this particular site in Wanchai/Causeway Bay, the workers simply climb up the side and pass the bamboo upwards to assemble it.
