Vivienne Chow wrote in South China Morning Post5 that “those who support the project accuse detractors of failing to understand ng the cultural and historical significance of the Palace Museum...The problem here…is about how the deal was reached…The West o Kowloon Cultural District Ordinance states that the Authority should consult the public on matters concerning the development or K operation of the facilities.” The deal to build the HKPM with HK$3.5 billion of funding from the Jockey Club, and the appointmentng of architect Rocco Yim Sen-kee to build it, had been reached in the absence of public consultation. Chow also reported thato “even Ada Wong, a consultative panel member, said that she had only found out about the plan on the day it was announced tof theH press.” • January 5 o y t 6 Oscar Ho from the Department of Cultural and Religious Study, Chinese University of Hong Kong, wrote in Thes iStand News that “the harsh criticism from Michael Lynch, ex-CEO, on the imposition of PMHK in WKCD, expresses his stronge reactionr to the indiscreet disrespect to professionalism.” Ho described WKCD’s explanation on the incident “reduces all requirements,iv especially those related to cultural development, to the bare minimum of legally compatible.” He believed that “Hong Kongn people are cultured enough to U choose their perspective and are open-minded enough to embrace different points of view. eOpenness and plurality are what make Hong Kong likeable. The incident has become messy because it shows how our opennesse sand plurality are being impacted. Such a hasty decision is a result of the speculation of the possible embarrassment Beijing mightin face, and the misconception of equating opposite opinions in Hong Kong to resistance or hatred.” h C 7 Mathius Woo, Associate Creative Director of “Zuni Icosahedron,” wrote ine Ming Pao on the same day. He said that ten years ago, he had already “raised the need to build a Palace Museum in WKCD,” becauseh “there should be a society-facing, integrated cultural 8 T and art museum in every metropolitan.” In South China Morning Posts,, Bernard Chan wrote that he admitted the announcement had been sudden, being a member of WKCDA himself. “Yet, if we hadrt discussed this plan at LegCo, the process would have taken years. WKCD would take another fifteen years to complete evenA without PMHK, a project which might have been used (at LegCo) as a political weapon to insult Beijing.” He didn’t think anyonee would seriously refuse the Palace Museum collection (to be shown in Hong Kong). n Fi 9 However, also according to South China Morningof Post, Tanya Chan, LegCo member, called the six-week public consultation promised by Carrie Lam “fake”: “The realt question to ask is whether there should be PMHK in WKCD.” Oscar Ho urged the government to explain the reason fore buildingn HKPM in WKCD and for Rocco Yim to be appointed as chief architect. Indy Lee, representative of arts interests (drama)tm of Hong Kong Arts Development Council, was apprehensive that participation in the public consultation would be mistakenar as implied consent to the PMHK project. ep D 18 _____________________________20 5 Viviennet Chow. “Broken trust,” South China Morning Post, January 4, 2017. 6 Anh article by Ho Hing-kay Oscar in The Stand News, January 5, 2017. www.thestandnews.com/culture/ 原本是件美好事情 /。 ig yr7 An article by Mathius Woo in Ming Pao D04, January 5, 2017. p 8 Bernard Chan. “No reason to reject Palace Museum gems,” South China Morning Post, January 5, 2017. o 9 “Carrie Lam offers to consult public on museum project,” South China Morning Post, January 5, 2017.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

  • TFK/02/2017 on 14 February 2017
    Task Force on Harbourfront Developments in Kowloon, Tsuen Wan and Kwai Tsing For discussion TFK/02/2017 on 14 February 2017 The Development of Hong Kong Palace Museum in the West Kowloon Cultural District PURPOSE This paper contains information on the proposed Hong Kong Palace Museum (“HKPM”). BACKGROUND 2. The proposed development of HKPM in the West Kowloon Cultural District (“WKCD”) will be a unique collaborative arrangement between the West Kowloon Cultural District Authority (“WKCDA”) and the Palace Museum under which the exquisite collection of the Palace Museum will be loaned to HKPM for display on a long-term basis and in a more in-depth and comprehensive manner. The building of a new world-class museum dedicated to the display and interpretation of artefacts from the renowned Palace Museum is a significant addition to the cultural fabric of WKCD. Being the second major museum in WKCD, HKPM will enhance the cultural offering and greatly increase WKCD’s attractiveness as a cultural destination. Focusing on traditional Chinese culture, HKPM will add to WKCD’s diverse mix of programmes and activities, thereby enabling it to attract visitors of all ages and backgrounds, both locally and from outside Hong Kong. 3. Sitting across the Art Park from M+, HKPM will complement M+ as a museum of 20th and 21st century visual culture, allowing visitors to explore in close proximity arts and culture of both the contemporary and the ancient. It will also reinforce WKCD’s cultural offering of traditional Chinese art, with the Xiqu Centre located at the eastern end of WKCD focusing on performing art (Chinese opera) and HKPM at the western end Task Force on Harbourfront Developments in Kowloon, Tsuen Wan and Kwai Tsing TFK/02/2017 showcasing precious artefacts and artworks of the Palace Museum.

  • Representations of Hong Kong's West Kowloon Cultural District by Local
    Southeast Asia: A Multidisciplinary Journal, Vol 18, 2018, pp 44–54 © FASS, UBD Representations of Hong Kong’s West Kowloon Cultural District by Local English Newspapers Benny Lim The Chinese University of Hong Kong Abstract To enhance cultural development in Hong Kong, the idea of West Kowloon Cultural District (WKCD) was mooted in 1998. WKCD is the biggest and most important arts and culture project by the Hong Kong government to date. This paper seeks to examine how Hong Kong newspapers have reported on WKCD since the inception of the Authority in 2008. The purpose of this research is to identify the common issues on WKCD as reported by the newspapers, in order to deduce the possible effects of news reporting on the public perceptions of the district. This study employs the concept of agenda-setting theory in its theoretical approach on how newspapers direct attitudes towards a particular issue. A total of 744 news reports from three local English newspapers bearing the keywords West Kowloon Cultural District and WKCD were subjected to content analysis, of which 576 relevant articles are further classified into seven categories. To better achieve the research objective, semi-structured interviews were carried out with two specialists. Research revealed that the majority of the news coverage of WKCD focuses on political issues, rather than the arts and culture. Further analysis uncovered two major reasons for this focus. First, political issues are generally more newsworthy than arts and culture, and politics-oriented coverage gives WKCD more editorial space in the news media. Second, centering politics in the reporting of WKCD functions as a way to articulate to the public the power of the media to monitor the government.
