2. Islam in Macau
[BY ISLAMIMACAU.COM]

 When I moved to Macau with my family in 2006 - after living six years in Hong Kong -  finding halal food became a major issue for us. I knew very few people in Macau then and, of those whom I knew, none was Muslim.  Because of the large size of Muslim population in Hong Kong this was never a major issue there. I could just call a friend or search the website of Muslim organisations in Hong Kong to find such information. So, in September 2006, we became frequent Hong Kong visitors, mostly to get halal food items. It was expensive and time consuming.
