Community engagement and involvement have really pivoted Chinatown’s direction, according to Vancouver Police Deputy Chief Const. Howard Chow.

Lam wanted to help clean up the community and be part of the solution when he opened his men’s clothing store on East Pender Street in June 2022, but said dealing with the street disorder has been challenging. Some businesses have followed San Francisco in adopting a WhatsApp chat group, and Lam said it’s helped add a sense of safety and security.
Chow said anti-Asian hate is a lingering issue, and Chinatown residents still feel they’re being targeted.
