KOWLOON FRONTIER DISTRICT OF THE CHINESE MARITIME
CUSTOMS
This is the inclusive name given to the Chinese Maritime Customs stations adjacent to Hongkong and established in 1887 in accordance with the Chefoo Agreement of 1876 and its Additional Article of 1885 for the purpose of recording the movement of opium and 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 boundary, and the present stations are situated at Taishan, Lintin, Shumchün, Shatowkok, Shaüchung, 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 in 1923 was Ĥk. Tls. 53,732,972 as compared with Hk. Tls. 75,907,530, in 1922 and Hk. Tls. 72,711,446 in 1921, the figures for 1921 and 1922 being the highest on record, largely due to much-increased importations of rice, the value for the three preceding years being as follows:-1920, Èk. Tls. 41,222,995; 1919, Hk. Tls. 43,474,757; 1918, Hk. Tls. 52,694,412.
