Wiki is your friend....

// Used in government matters, Cantonese is spoken by most of the local
Chinese population at home and in the office, although English is also
widely understood and spoken by more than one-third of the population.
Since the Handover, a new group of immigrants from mainland China have
increased the ethnic diversity of the Chinese population and enhanced
the developement of Mandarin in the territory.//

And here's an interesting little blurb from a different section of that
article on HK

// The majority of Hong Kong's population practices ancestor worship due
to the strong Confucian influence. //

Of course, before you accept all of that as fact, you might want to look
around a little bit for some confirmation.
