Fascinating. Reading back to a 2018 article in the HK Standard, the author urges living within one's means to avoid red paint being splashed upon one's door by loan sharks (adding that the trade war with the United States will likely increase the reliance on credit for many people). The New Territories police website notes arson as part of the intimidation process, which is certainly worrying, though perhaps not as much as the fact that a citizen reporter has far more agency in the charting of crime than our police.

A sterling effort as always dear boy, and may it spur others into seeing the value of your works.
