HONG KONG, BCC On the very border of Red China, the New Territories are a gate to the West. More than ninety-nine per cent of Hong Kong ' s population is of the Chinese race: cheerful, industrious, independent people with an ability to adopt and adapt to West- ern ways while still retaining their tradi- tional customs and culture. Life in the Crown Colony is an agreeable blend of East and West, and visitors cannot fail to notice this at every turn. Numerous bays and inlets, as well as sub-tropical vegetation, make Hong Kong island an I-Men of scenery. It is a slow day ' s journey around the isle with stop- overs in Repulse Bay, a resort area much like Newport; the floating restaurants at Aberdeen, which must be reached by sam- pan; and ' ictoria Peak, which overlooks the port city. The next day there is shop- ping for ivory; jade; tailored suits, shoes and shirts; and a miriad of items from the world over. Market place of the Orient, Hong Kong is a city state with no tarlffs--a MUST visit.
