In the 1980s, the British Hong Kong government decided to demolish the Kowloon Walled City and provide compensation to eligible residents. Back then, some residents chose compensation instead of living in public housing, but now they are over 70 this year, but they are unemployed and their savings are exhausted. He applied for public housing twice last year and was rejected, and this year he applied once more, and was accused by the Housing Authority that he had received compensation that year and was not eligible. He filed a complaint with the High Court last Friday (7th), questioning that the arrangement did not take into account his situation, saying that the policy was too rigid and suspected of being unconstitutional, and asked the court to review the decision of the Housing Authority.

The British Hong Kong Government Compensates Residents of Kowloon Walled City to Receive Compensation Funds for Abandoning Public Housing
The applicant is Xu Jianyun (transliteration, English name: Hui Kin Wan), and the respondent is the Hong Kong Housing Authority. The petition alleges that Hsu, now 74 years old, bought a unit in Kowloon Walled City in a joint venture with others in the 1980s. By 1987, the British Hong Kong government decided to demolish the Kowloon Walled City and compensate residents; eligible residents might be allocated public housing and receive compensation equal to the market value of their units, or compensation three times higher than the market value, and Priority qualification for purchasing HOS flats.
Unemployed former homeless now living in transitional housing
Xu did not live in public housing at that time and chose 150,000 yuan in compensation, and following sharing it with others, he received 75,000 yuan. He did not buy a HOS flat with the compensation, and rented a subdivided flat in Jordan, and then rented a bed in Sham Shui Po. Xu Yu lost his job as a gardener last year and has been without income since then and has become a homeless person. A social worker once assisted him in applying for CSSA and public housing. He was approved for CSSA in March this year and is currently living in a hotel transitional housing provided by St. James’ Settlement. Since there is no kitchen in the unit, he plans to move to the transitional housing project “Boai Kong Ha Wai Village” in Kong Ha Wai, Yuen Long in July this year.
Housing Authority says multiple applications for public housing are rejected due to ineligibility
Xu applied for the Priority Housing Allocation Scheme as an “elderly single person” in 2021 but was rejected. A social worker wrote to him twice, saying that his savings were exhausted and he might not afford to rent a bed. He also suffered from back and bone pain and prostate problems because of his degenerated legs. He hoped that the Housing Authority would allow him to apply for public housing. In July and September last year, it was rejected by the Housing Authority on the grounds that it was not eligible for application.
Xu submitted another application in March this year, saying that his savings were only 704 yuan. The Housing Authority replied in April, stating that he had accepted compensation and chose to arrange his own housing. According to the “Application Notes”, he may not be eligible to apply for public housing, which made him face obstacles in applying for transitional housing and was also ineligible to apply Cash benefit pilot scheme.
Xu believed that the relevant policy was too rigid, did not take into account his financial difficulties and physical deterioration, and was suspected of being unconstitutional and illegal, so he demanded that the relevant policy be overturned, as well as the decision of the Housing Authority to reject his application for public housing in April this year.
