CHINESE KOWLOON CUSTOMS
This is the inclusive name given to the Chinese Customs stations placed around Hongkong for the purpose of collecting duty on the trade carried on by Chinese junks between Hongkong and Chinese ports. In 1899, when the New Territory was taken over by Hongkong, the Customs stations had to be removed from their former locations which had been brought within the British houndary, and the present stations are situated at Taishan, Lintin, Shamchün, Shayuchung, and Samun (Tooniang), besides which there are a number of frontier patrol posts on the north shores of Deep and Mirs Bays and between the two bays. The net value of the trade of 1899 amounted to Tls. 56,532,226, the largest on record, exceeding by 6 million taels that of its highest predecessor 1895. The improvement was exclusively in the exchange of goods between Hongkong and China. The net value of the trade for 1898 was Tls. 45,700,012.
