Single parking space sells for €1.06 million in Hong Kong

A 12.5 square metre spot in a luxury Hong Kong apartment complex has sold for an incredible €1.06 million (HK$10 million). Part of The Peak, which boasts unimaginable property prices, has attracted some of the city’s richest people. Overlooking Victoria Harbour, the space is no larger than apartments which normal residents cannot even afford.

UBS reported, in 2019, that a skilled worker required 22 years of income to afford a 60-metre flat, with the average property price in Hong Kong ranging at $1.2 million. With a 3,378 square-foot penthouse selling for US$59 million just last year and setting a benchmark price per square foot at $17,500, Hong Kong’s luxury property market skyrocketed following economic and political uncertainty in the years beforehand.

David Attenborough’s heartbreaking Netflix documentary drops today

David Attenborough’s heartbreaking Netflix documentary drops today
Jun 4 2021 Share

In a new documentary by world renowned coral reef scientist David Attenborough, scientists break down, on the brink of tears, the severity of the Earth’s climate crisis. Titled ‘Breaking Boundaries: The Science of our Planet’, the 75-minute documentary brings together Attenborough, scientist Professor Johan Rockstrom and a team of other scientists to investigate the effects humanity has had on its planet.

The synopsis of the documentary explains how humanity has pushed Earth beyond its boundaries, which have kept Earth stable for 10,000 years since the dawn of civilisation. The show takes the audience towards a discovery of the planet’s limits and explains how we must not exceed them – not just for the sake of the planet, but also humanity itself.
