Soy sauce making tradition pushed out by development in Hong Kong’s New Territories

A soy sauce factory is an example of traditional industries under threat from Hong Kong’s efforts to redevelop its northeast New Territories region near the border with the Chinese mainland. The development plan, in motion for a decade, faces criticism from those who say it has neglected heritage industries there. Critics say soy sauce production, and other enterprises such as woodworking, are doomed to fail because they are too small to afford the cost of relocation.
