Bahasa inggris
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.
