pexels-gabby-k-7794448.jpg

Aim

Archival material relating to South Asian migration stories in Hong Kong is not available in one place. As part of this project we hope to compile databases regarding available material in the city and beyond to make studying this history easier for scholars and students.

Ongoing Work

The project has begun recovering material relating to South Asian history in Hong Kong available in local archives. We have initially compiled a list of records relating to India, Pakistan and Nepal available in the Hong Kong Public Records Office here.

We have also compiled a smaller list of of the records we have requested and have made PDF. Keywords have been added to these records. The spreadsheet is available here, please inquire if you would like to see any of these records.
