Trappists are monks who are not allowed to preach or to teach. Their lives are devoted to
meditation, studying and reading.
In 1949, one group of Trappists fled to Hong Kong from China, leaving behind their
houses and their dairy industry. They dressed themselves as labourers and carried only a few
possessions.
Here, the monks had to start a new life. They found it difficult to obtain food and they
had nowhere to live; but somehow they managed with the help of the community and
charitable organizations. It was not until 1995 that the Hong Kong government granted them
land on Lantao island.
The monks are not allowed to beg for a living, so they had to work very hard on the
island. They started a dairy farm, kept about five hundred chickens and started growing their
own vegetables.
A large part of the work of the Trappists is concerned with their dairy. The cows are
fed regularly, milked and kept healthy. The dairy, which produces about two thousand bottles
of milk a day, brings the monks their main income. The monks sell about half of the milk to a
large hotel in Hong Kong, while hospitals and schools buy the rest. The monks also earn
some money by selling eggs. Sometimes, the Trappists sell some of their cattle. The monks
themselves do not eat meat, however, as they are vegetarians.
