Scaffolding in Macau & Hong Kong

While in Macau and Hong Kong over the weekend, one of the most surprising sights I saw was that all scaffolding is made out of bamboo and plastic twine - no matter how high.


^This building in Hong Kong is at least 40-stories high and is completely wrapped in bamboo.
