  • Transnational Urban Redevelopment of the Post-Colonial Hong Kong
    CARESCAPES: TRANSNATIONAL URBAN REDEVELOPMENT OF THE POST-COLONIAL HONG KONG Shu-Mei Huang A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2012 Reading Committee: Robert Mugeraurer, Chair Victoria Lawson Jeffery Hou Manish Chalana Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Built Environment ©Copyright 2012 Shu-Mei Huang University of Washington Abstract CARESCAPES: TRANSNATIONAL URBAN REDEVELOPMENT OF THE POST- COLONIAL HONG KONG Shu-Mei Huang Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Robert Mugerauer Director, PhD Program in the Built Environment, University of Washington Professor at Urban Design and Planning, College of Built Environments Drawing upon the massive redevelopment catalyzed by the government-led urban renewal in Hong Kong in the past two decades, this research pays attention to how biased normalization of care and dependency contributes to a neoliberal regime of urban redevelopment that dictates more than 200 urban renewal projects. It examines the ways in which the regime reconfigures the daily existence of urban citizens, and moreover, the intense competition among Pearl River Delta (PRD) cities. Taking a transnational perspective from below, it reveals how the denial has affected a particular population on the move and more importantly, unsettled the civil society. By theorizing “carescapes” as a heuristic device, it trace the ways in which the transnational circulation of rent/capital travels across borders at the cost of care and needs. It illuminates the multiple displacements of care: the displacement of reproductive space and nested dependency relations; the displacement of urban residents to make room for the elite visitors; the displacement of citizens on a transnational scale, including both the underprivileged migrants and the elite expatriates who struggle to stay put in the liquid labor market.

  • Hong Kong's Food Culture 1. Introduction
    Hong Kong’s Food Culture 1. Introduction Hong Kong’s cuisine is not only an exotic fusion of Eastern and Western flavours, but is also a great variety of creative culinary delights with local characteristics, making the place a world renowned Gourmet Paradise. Changing from simple stomach-filing food and drinks to gourmet enjoyment, from humble eateries to superb restaurants and from local Chinese tastes to exotic delicacies, Hong Kong’s food culture has actually reflected the economic, social and livelihood changes that Hong Kong has undergone over the past hundred and more years. The success or otherwise of restaurants, the popularity of cuisines and the change of taste have not only marked the different expectations of food and drinks at different times, but have also become a collective memory of Hong Kong people. The essay aims at illustrating the change of Hong Kong’s food culture over the past one hundred years. 2. From Self-sufficiency to Import Dependence Records show that Hong Kong produced rice as early as in the 17th century. Until the mid-20th century, rice remained the primary agricultural product in Hong Kong. However, with the growth in population and a heavier demand on food, the government actively promoted vegetable farming. Livestock farming also developed quickly owing to increased demand. Fishery has a long history in Hong Kong. Fishermen mostly worked in the neighbouring waters and along the southeastern shorelines of China. They also raised marine fish using floating net-pens, commonly known as “fish rafts”. In Deep Bay in the northwestern part of the New Territories, oyster farming areas were found there as early as in the 19th century.

During the review, the former BA noted, among other things, the opinion that the former BA should consult the public more frequently on the variety and quality of the programmes provided by the two licensees. Therefore, in the context of the mid-term review of the licences of ATV and TVB, the former BA recommended to the Chief Executive in Council (“CE in C”), among others, that the two licensees had to participate in public engagement exercises in the form of focus group discussions to be conducted by the former BA to gauge public opinions on their programmes. This would help the licensees improve their programme variety and quality.
