Many residents were terrified after seeing a wobbly tower crane in Kwun Tong on Monday and worried it could be affected and collapse in the upcoming rainy days. After the tragedy in Sau Mau Ping that took three lives and injured six in September, the general public's concern about the safety of tower cranes significantly increased. Their concerns flared up after an online viral video showed a tower crane at a construction site on Lai Yip Street swinging left and right. Passersby were worried about the tower crane's stability, as rainy days ahead and the winds would become more robust. Some stated that it was best to warn the workers beforehand as the crane was close to the traffic and pedestrian roads.
