Hi all,

I'm really hoping this fabulous forum might provide some answers. I am Hong Kong based, doing some research for a television program in New Zealand that puts families back together. 

A woman who's now 30 years old with her own young daughter is hopeful of finding her own birth mother. The woman was left in a Hong Kong orphanage in 1984 by her mum Chung Li-Nor, who lived at Shek Yam Estate in Tseun Wan. She was adopted by a NZ family but would love to find out about her own heritage and introduce it to her daughter. It would be amazing if we could help her find her mother. Unfortunately details are sketchy. Any suggestions, most welcome.

Sincerely,

Nicole

Hi Nicole,

This website might be able to help:

If you have the chinese characters for "Li-Nor CHUNG", I recommend you post them too.

Good luck with the search,

Regards, David

Great! Thank you David, I stumbled across Fanling Babies yesterday, so fingers crossed. And yes, trying to get the Chinese characters. 

Thank again,

Nicole

New information has come to light. The orphange Li Nor Chung placed her daughter in was called PO LEUNG KOK....

That's a big step forward.

The name is usually spelled "Po Leung Kuk", see

Thank you David! I have sent the orphanage an email. Fingers crossed. I have also discovered the Social Welfare dept has a root tracing service, so hoping this may help to find her. Nicole
