British colonial official stays on to study Hong Kong rural villages—果籽 香港 Apple Daily—20210103

Back in the colonial era, British-born dominated Hong Kong’s senior government posts, including the position of administrative officer. Dr. Patrick H. Hase was among the 3,000 people who were dispatched by the U.K. authorities to govern the city in the ’70s. “I arrived on Oct. 2, 1972, so it’s been exactly 48 years since I got here,” says the 73-year-old. Upon obtaining a PhD in history from Cambridge, Hase moved to Hong Kong to join the colonial government, without expecting to find something worth more than a high salary. “After checking in at the Lee Gardens Hotel at 5 p.m. on my first day here, I visited Jardine’s Crescent with my wife. The place was different back then. It was a wet market packed with different stalls and people, very lively. We had only been married for one month. I told her I wanted to live here. I liked it a lot and felt happy here.” https://hk.appledaily.com/feature/202... 影片: 【我是南丫島人】23歲仔獲cafe免費借位擺一人咖啡檔 $6,000租住350呎村屋：愛這裏互助關係 (果籽 Apple Daily) (   • 23歲仔$6,000租南丫島350呎村屋 Cafe老闆免費借位擺檔賣咖啡 幫業主清雜...  ) 【香港蠔 足本版】流浮山白蠔收成要等三年半 天然生曬肥美金蠔日產僅50斤 即撈即食中環名人坊蜜餞金蠔 西貢六福酥炸生蠔 (果籽 Apple Daily) (   • 流浮山白蠔收成要等三年半 天然生曬肥美金蠔日產僅50斤 即撈即食中環名人坊蜜餞金蠔 ...  ) 【這夜給惡人基一封信】大佬茅躉華日夜思念 回憶從8歲開始：兄弟有今生沒來世 (壹週刊 Next) (   • Video  ) 【太子餃子店】新移民唔怕蝕底自薦包餃子 粗重功夫一腳踢 老闆刮目相看邀開店：呢個女人唔係女人(飲食男女 Apple Daily)    • 新移民唔怕蝕底太子開餃子店 自薦包餃子 粗重功夫一腳踢 老闆刮目相看邀開店：呢個女人...  ) 【娛樂人物】情願市民留家唔好出街聚餐 鄧一君兩麵舖執笠蝕200萬 (蘋果日報 Apple Daily) (   • Video  ) 果籽 ：http://as.appledaily.com 籽想旅行：http://travelseed.hk 健康蘋台： http://applehealth.com.hk 動物蘋台： http://applepetform.com #British #Colonial #Cambridge #AO #UK #果籽 #StayHome #WithMe #跟我一樣 #宅在家
