SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT
The Prisoner and his family were formerly residents of the Li Cheng Uk Village (now having been reconstructed as the Li Cheng Uk Swimming Pool) and occupied a stone cottage. They moved into the present address, Room Nos. 117 & 119, Block 16, Valley Road Estate, Hunghom in 1967, paying a monthly rent of $111. The Prisoner shared a double bunk with his second younger brother when he stayed at home.
For a period of about 5 months in 1972, the Prisoner had lived apart from his family somewhere in Prince Edward Road. He could not remember the exact address. It was noted, nevertheless, that he had been badly influenced by a gang subculture, not in the immediate vicinity of his home, but in a few playgrounds, including particularly the Perth Street Playground.
The Prisoner had been doing hawking in various parts of Kowloon, including San Po Kong and Choi Hung for about 3 years but apparently there was no likelihood of contamination there. (But it is a pity that persons named by him for reference were not located during inquiry.)
