Walled city... this shit actually existed



I don't really get whats wrong with this

No regulation so they can work and do what they want

this.

If they left they would have to get jobs working 12 hours a day in sweat shops outside of the walled city anyway. At least there they don't have to pay taxes or worry about anything or anybody but themselves.

this.... and you don't have to work, if you employ others, or make monies some other way.

this from wikipedia, pretty crazy: In 1987, the Walled City contained 33,000 residents within its 6.5-acre (0.03 km2; 0.01 sq mi) borders.
 
holy shit the chunking mansions, the perfect example of lack of zoning laws, to an extreme. it's amazing
 
just different life style. there are two things HK people do in their house - TV and sleep. Since i came back to hk i spent max 9 hours a day at home.
< deep in prc. spend no more than 5h at home usually between 3am and 8am ^^(doing nothing but opening door -> dropping down in bed -> shower -> leave)

youre right.
