Rewritten Article:
Hong Kong's housing authorities have temporarily halted an order evicting a violin teacher from her flat, following her legal challenge to the justification behind their 18 sudden inspections.
That's right, Violin teacher Tang Wai-yin, who moved into her one-person flat in a Tin Shui Wai public housing estate in 2023, has stood up against the Housing Department's decision to seize her home.
This action comes after the government rolled out a wave of measures to combat the misuse of public housing resources in the city.
