In March 1896, the Hong Kong government issued an order of banishment against Sun Yat-sen (aka Sun Yat-sin). The order was issued in the name of the Executive Council, prohibiting Sun from ‘residing or being’ in Hong Kong for a period of 5 years for the reason that, in the opinion of the Governor in Council, Sun was dangerous to the peace and good order of the Colony. This order was signed by the Acting Clerk of Council dated 4th March, 1896. (Executive Council Ref.: C.O.D. No. 5 of 1896)
