- W2479053061 abstract "By the end of 1955, a decade after the Second World War, Hong Kong had a population of about 2.4 million.1 As elaborated in the Hong Kong Annual Report 1955, most of the residents (99 percent) were Chinese, the majority from neighboring Guangdong Province; Hong Kong was a youthful society, as a good number of refugees were young people seeking new opportunities in the colony. The British (excluding servicemen and families, about 13,000) constituted the majority of the 1 percent of foreign population; others included Americans (about 1,800), Europeans, and Asians. The Maryknoll Sisters, forty-four of them in 1955, made up 2.4 percent of the American population in Hong Kong. Like newcomers from mainland China, the Maryknoll Sisters (whether they had been in Hong Kong before the war or were just starting out) found themselves in a bustling urban life, full of different daily challenges and with multiple problems, yet offering fresh opportunities for those who dared to try and to succeed. As described in the Hong Kong Annual Report 1955—“Hong Kong residents, as they saw 1955 out, called it an ordinary year. Hong Kong’s definition of the word ‘ordinary’, however, needs examination." @default.
