Hong Kong has always had its full measure of remarkable people. Both saints and sinners, they have come from all the ethnic groups in Hong Kong's ebullient population. What has been missing is an accessible record of who these people are and what they did. Their stories will now come to life again in the Dictionary of Hong Kong Biography and, let us hope, be joined by new entries in the years to come. -- David Wilson (Lord Wilson of Tillyorn), Governor of Hong Kong, 1987-92
