Awareness of Hong Kong’s built heritage and its value is considered to have begun to increase around the time of the end of British rule. The change in Hong Kong’s sovereignty in 1997 prompted a search for its own identity, because while no longer under British rule, and not being nor becoming entirely Chinese, it was not immediately obvious what the emerging Hong Kong should put forward as its cultural identity. The question since that time has also become economically pertinent, as Hong Kong has developed into a major Asian tourist destination. As cultural tourism could be developed into one of the pillars of Hong Kong’s leisure economy, debate emerged on its identity and the built heritage it reflects. This article addresses the popular assumption that before 1997, heritage had been of little interest to Hong Kong’s governments, as articulated by Yung and Chan (2011), Henderson (2001) and Cheung (1999). This negligence was explained by the fact that Hong Kong’s population was growing exponentially through several waves of large-scale immigration, while being under an obviously temporary British government. This resulted in a heterogeneous population (Henderson, 2001) which had just migrated there and was more concerned about access to housing, employment and transportation than the history of the lands they were about to inhabit (Yung and Chan, 2011, 459).

  • LC Paper No. CB(2)1719/13-14(04) for Information on 13 June 2014
    LC Paper No. CB(2)1719/13-14(04) For information on 13 June 2014 Legislative Council Panel on Home Affairs Promulgation of the First Intangible Cultural Heritage Inventory of Hong Kong Purpose This paper informs Members of the details of the first intangible cultural heritage (“ICH”) inventory of Hong Kong, which has been finalised after the public consultation on the draft ICH inventory and the consultation with the Intangible Cultural Heritage Advisory Committee (ICHAC). Background 2. According to the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage (the Convention) adopted by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), each State Party has to identify and define the various elements of ICH present in its territory, with the participation of communities, groups and relevant non-governmental organisations to draw up ICH inventories as the basis for the safeguarding of ICH. After the Convention came into effect in 2006, the Government planned to conduct a territory-wide survey on ICH in Hong Kong to collect research data for drawing up the first inventory of Hong Kong’s ICH. 3. According to the Convention, ICH refers to the practices, representations, expressions, knowledge, skills – as well as the instruments, objects, artefacts and cultural spaces associated therewith – that communities, groups (or individuals) of the territory recognise as part of their cultural heritage. To qualify as ICH, the item must be transmitted from generation to generation and is constantly recreated by communities and groups in response to their environment, their interaction with nature and their history, and provides them with a sense of identity and continuity, thus promoting respect for cultural diversity and human creativity.
