Hong Kong's Pearl River Delta Metropolis: @Household of Kontinuance

There are millenniums of lives untold in the history of the People that created Hong kong and it all went back to one point ; The Southern Kingdom; the people that gave the ancient world the Silk Road and is giving, via the spirit of the Cantonese people, the Next Global Silk Road, the incredible technological, trade & cultural Metropolis that the Pearl River Delta will become, steered by Hong kong’s social & economic Cantonese Style!……This, is what “@Household of Kontinuance” is about: the quiet stories that stretched its deep roots into every part of the known world! The “continuance” ethos that means even descendents who do not understand the chinese language, KNOW about our human endeavours, however heroic & at times, however brutal it may be….in the old & new world.

A poem by Henry Howard , earl of Surrey,  written in 1517, Echoes this 5000 yrs old “yearning”:

MY friend, the things that do attain
The happy life be these, I find:
The riches left, not got with pain;
The fruitful ground; the quiet mind;

The equal friend; no grudge; no strife;
No charge of rule, nor governance;
Without disease, the healthy life;
The household of continuance…”
