Tenants had a choice of either receiving cash compensation or of being rehoused
Before the sale and purchase agreement between the URA and Ng Chiu Pang’s family was concluded, his third and fourth uncles’ families had successfully applied for public housing and had been rehoused. Only Ng Chiu Pang’s third uncle’s son was still living in one of the ancestral houses. Ng Chiu Pang discussed the man’s case with the URA and the parties all reached a satisfactory plan involving rehousing and the granting of a resettlement subsidy. When discussing demolition and resettlement matters with the URA, residents could choose between receiving cash compensation or being resettled in public housing, depending on their personal wishes.
