Between the 1970s and 1990s, over 230,000 Vietnamese asylum seekers (often called “Boat People”) arrived in Hong Kong and were held in a dozen refugee camps – including former military barracks, industrial buildings, uninhabited islands, and retired ferry vessels. Although there are numerous news reels and articles about the Vietnamese refugee camps, there is no plaque, no signs, and no demarcation of the camps in Hong Kong today. The documents about these camps are scattered and fragments.

 

Supported by the Lord Wilson Heritage Trust (2021-2022), this site presents a comprehensive list of the camps where Vietnamese asylum seekers were detained in Hong Kong.

在 1970 年代至 1990 年代期間，超過 230,000 名越南尋求庇護者（通常被稱為“船民”）抵達香港，並被關押在十幾個難民營中—包括前軍營、工廠、無人島和退役渡輪。儘管有許多關於在香港越南難民營的新聞和文章，但如今天香港沒有任何牌匾或標誌記載這些難民營。關於這些營地的文獻也是零散、零碎。
