Home World Travel City Guide Canada Travel ... China Business travellodge.info History of Hong Kong In 1757 a local Guangzhou merchants guild called the Cb Hong won the exclusive rights to sell Chinese products to foreign traders, who were now permitted, to live in Guangzhou for 'about six months each year. In the meantime, it had not escaped the attention of the foreigners that the trade was one-way only, and they soon began thinking up possible' products the Chinese might want to buy in exchange. It did not take long, to find one - opium from India. In 1773 the first British shipload of opium arrived and all explosion of demand for the drug quickly followed, 'despite an edict from Beijing banning the trade in 1796. Co Hong, which received commission on everything bought or sold, had no qualms about distributing opium to its fellow citizens and before long the balance of trade had been reversed very much in favor of the British. The twentieth century saw Hong Kong grow from a seedy merchants' colony to a huge international city, but progress was not always smooth. The drug trade was voluntarily dropped in 1907 as the Hong Kong merchants began to make the transfer from pure trade to manufacturing. Up until World War 2, Hong Kong prospered as the growing threat of both civil war and Japanese aggression in mainland China increasingly began to drive money south into the apparently safe confines of the British colony. This confidence appeared glaringly misplaced in 1941 when Japanese Forces seized Hong Kong along with the rest of eastern China, though after the Japanese defeat in 1945, Hong Kong once again began attracting money from the mainland, which was in the process of falling to the Communists. Many of Hong Kong's biggest tycoons today are people who escaped from mainland China, particularly from Shanghai, in 1949.

Make Money Hong Kong HISTORY Disputes over former treaties and the Chinese boarding of the British ship Arrow started the Second Opium War (also known as the Lorcha Arrow War), which lasted from 1856 co 1858. The Convention of Beijing, signed in 1860, formally ended the hostilities and granted the British a perpetual lease on the Kowloon Peninsula. The United Kingdom was concerned that Hong Kong could not be defended unless surrounding areas were also under British control; in 1898, it executed a 99-year lease of the New Territories, significantly expanding the size of the Hong Kong colony. In the late 19th century and early 20th centuries, Hong Kong developed as a warehousing and distribution center for U.K. trade with southern China. After the end of World 'War II and the communist takeover it mainland China in 1949, hundreds of thousands of people emigrated from China to Hong Kong. This helped Hong Kong become an economic success and a manufacturing, commercial, and tourism center. High life expectancy, literacy, per capita income, and other socioeconomic measures attest to Hong Kong's achievements over the last four decades. source: U.S. State Department Background Notes
