"This article presents the characteristics of persons from the Mainland having resided in Hong Kong for less than 7 years based on information provided by the one-way permit holders to the Immigration Department when they first entered Hong Kong and also on the findings of the 1996 Population By-census. The demographic characteristics of the one-way permit holders coming to Hong Kong during the period 1990-1996 are analysed in detail. A comparison of the socio-economic characteristics of persons from the Mainland having resided in Hong Kong for less than 7 years with the whole population of Hong Kong using the 1996 Population By-census results is also made."
