ECONOMY OVERVIEW OF Hong Kong:
POPULATION OF Hong Kong: 6,855,125 (July 2004 est.)>
RELIGION OF Hong Kong: Hong Kong is a multicultural city with a multiracial population living in harmony. Tolerance for the customs and traditions of all religions and ethnic groups is part of the city's cosmopolitan philosophy. It is only natural that facilities exist for all in this peaceful and eclectic city. In Hong Kong, everyone is free to openly worship according to their own beliefs. As most of the world's religions have places of worship here, any religious group with special dietary requirements is easily catered for in Hong Kong. As can be expected in a Chinese city, the largest religious communities in Hong Kong are the Buddhists and Taoists. Hong Kong's colonial history is reflected in the large and active Christian community. More than 80,000 Hong Kong people are followers of Islam. Other religions are also well represented, such as Hinduism and Sikhism. The Jewish Community Centre, meanwhile, has an extensive programme of activities and associated organisations.
COMMENTS ABOUT Hong Kong: Electricity : 220V/50Hz (UK plug)

Occupied by the UK in 1841, Hong Kong was formally ceded by China the following year; various adjacent lands were added later in the 19th century. Pursuant to an agreement signed by China and the UK on 19 December 1984, Hong Kong became the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) of China on 1 July 1997. In this agreement, China has promised that, under its "one country, two systems" formula, China's socialist economic system will not be imposed on Hong Kong and that Hong Kong will enjoy a high degree of autonomy in all matters except foreign and defense affairs for the next 50 years.
