First
Chinese Adult Adoptee Worldwide Reunion 2010, Hong
Kong
Several adult Chinese adoptees are
currently planning this reunion which will take place in
Hong Kong in the Fall, 2010. Exact dates are pending. We
anticipate that adults who were adopted from Hong Kong,
Taiwan, Macau, Singapore, or Malaysia and who are of
Chinese descent will gather in Hong Kong for this event.
The majority of these adoptees are women adopted between
the 1950s and the early 1970s.
Check back here for more info and updates. For more info on
the event or to volunteer to help with organization,
contact Lucinda Wu.
