Sammy Lau

Sammy Lau is an economic crime investigator who has worked in Hong Kong for nearly two decades. Recently, he was in the news for his reflections on the tragic fire at the Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po, which resulted in significant loss of life and highlighted issues related to public safety and government accountability in the region. Lau expressed concerns about the prevailing 'China-style' governance, characterized by corruption and a reluctance to speak out, which he believes contributed to the neglect of safety complaints that preceded the fire.
