Since 1st January 1972, (when the numbers entering legally started escalating) to date, the total figure for legal arrivals excluding CPG passport holders is 149,264. 89,340 of these i.e. the Overseas Chinese and Non-Cantonese who arrived after 30th June 1972, were landed on 12 months limitation of stay. However, our records show that 8,591 of them have not done so and this suggests that they are no longer living in Hong Kong.
