Histórico
Chun Loy So was born 20/01/1937. He arrived in the UK from Hong Kong's New Territories in 1959, under a scheme which aimed to help local farmers by encouraging them to emigrate to London. After moving around the country and living in other towns and cities (including Leeds and Liverpool) Mr So decided to permanently settle in London.
Mr So was employed in the catering trade, eventually opening his own restaurant, "New Maxim". He is now retired, but still plays an active roll within the Chinese community as a regular volunteer.
The account given by Mr So about London tells of the changes taking place in the capital, particularly in the diversity of population and the development in the Docklands.
