Walk about town. Do you see lots of children? Young women? Young men? Lots of middle-aged people? Elderly people? Who are the construction workers? Who are the nannies and childminders? Who seems to be wearing suits?
This week I'll read extracts from a government report about Hong Kong's populations. Where are you going? Come back! It's interesting! Honestly! And I have chocolate!
What would happen in the town where you live if there was a great growth of any one of those groups of people you saw? Or a great decline? What would happen if all the Filipinas left town?!
Make sure you get hold of daddy at some point and ask him about Demographic patterns. He's good at that stuff and can do the maths.
