IMPACT
Ethnic Minorities The Zubin Foundation (TZF) works with the poorest ethnic minorities in Hong Kong. The poverty rate of South Asians is 25.7% vs. 19.9% of the majority population. Ethnic minorities (excluding foreign domestic helpers) make up about 4% of Hong Kong’s population. This population has played a significant role in the development of Hong Kong, including the provision of a first endowment to The University of Hong Kong, being amongst the first directors of The Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, setting up the Star Ferry, and much more. This is the fastest growing population and a relatively young population. The largest subgroups within the ethnic minority population (excluding Caucasians) are Indians, Pakistanis and Nepalis. © 2019 The Zubin Mahtani Gidumal Foundation Limited. All rights reserved.
