"No matter how long it takes, the government owes us an answer regarding this project," said @852luk, who lost his 71-year-old mother in the fire.

"After all, more than 150 people burned to death. It is a true tragedy. And this was a man-made disaster, not a natural one."

That representative is now arrested by the ICAC, along with 10 others linked to the renovation -- nearly two years after residents first filed a complaint to the ICAC, and after those styrofoam boards fueled Hong Kong's deadliest fire in eight decades, killing over 150 people.
