I like Jeff, but I have not watched his video yet on that fire. Not enough hours in the day.

I have other sources - some inside China. It amazing what Chinese netizens themselves dig up. They can be quite the internet sleuths despite the rampant censorship. I also saw some other people testing how much bamboo burns. Some places in China actually use bamboo to cook in. I saw whole chickens being cooked inside bamboo - and the bamboo didn't burn.

After my last reply I came across information that some of the cladding that had been replaced also had tofu dreg substandard insulation. Basically it was foam - highly flammable and can be found all over the mainland. Many similar high rise fires all over China.

I really don't expect much to be done criminally about this in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong government apparatus that really matters has been taken over by Beijing. In other words, corruption on steroids. Hong Kong's laws may be on the books, just like they are on the mainland, but the judicial enforcement is non existent. They will parade a couple of sacrificial lambs for public display, but the ones really responsible will walk. May those poor souls rest in peace.
