Hong Kong has a long-established South Asian population. As of the 2006 by-census, there were at least 44,744 persons of South Asian descent in Hong Kong. Though many trade their roots in Hong Kong as far back as when most of the South Asia was still under British colonial rule, their nationality issues remain largely unsettled. However, recently an increasing number of them have been naturalised as Chinese nationals.
