  • Equality As a Human Right: the Development of Anti-Discrimination Law in Hong Kong
    Equality as a Human Right: The Development of Anti-Discrimination Law in Hong Kong CAROLE J. PETERSEN* The women's movement in Hong Kong has significantly benefited from the political and legal changes that oc- curred during the transition to 1997. Citizens of Hong Kong developed a greater awareness of human rights issues, and women have successfully identified equality as a "human right" deserving legalprotection. The women's movement has also allied itself with the increasingly democratic and assertiveLegislative Council. As a result, the legalprohibition offemale inheritance of land in Hong Kong was repealed in 1994 and the first law prohibiting sex discrimination was enacted in 1995. Additionally, Hong Kong's first Equal Opportunities Commission is being established. Ironically, the very developments that strengthened the women's movement in recent years-its association with the broaderhuman rights movement and with assertive legislators--may threaten it when China regains sovereignty. * Lecturer in Law, School of Professional and Continuing Education, University of Hong Kong. B.A., University of Chicago, 1981; J.D. Harvard Law School, 1984; Postgraduate Dip. Law of the PRC, University of Hong Kong, 1994. This article is a revised and updated version of a paper delivered at the 1995 Wolfgang Friedmann Confer- ence-Hong Kong: Financial Center of Asia, at Columbia Law School on March 30, 1995. From September 1993 to August 1995, the author served as a part-time consultant to Legislative Councillor Anna Wu and assisted her in the drafting of the Equal Opportunities Bill, the Human Rights and Equal Opportunities Commission Bill, and amendments to the Sex Discrimination Bill (described in Part V below).

  • How Facebook Functions in a Social Movement: an Examination Using

This study, adopting the web mining approach, attempts to investigate how social media, Facebook in particular, functioned in the “May 25 Protest” and the “May 27 Protest”, two movements which broke out in Macao on 25 and 27 May 2014, respectively, against the Retirement Package Bill. In the two protests, Macao residents deployed Facebook to share information and motivated people’s participation. Twelve events (181,106 people invited) and 36 groups/pages (41,266 members) related on Facebook were examined. Results showed that the information flow on Facebook fluctuated in accordance with the event development in reality. Multiple patterns of manifestation, such as video of adopted news or songs, designed profile (protest icon), original ironic pictures, self- organized clubs by undergraduates and white T-shirts as a symbol, among others, appeared online and interacted with offline actions. It was also found that social media assisted the information diffusion and provided persuasive reasons for netizens to join the movement. Social media helped to expand movement influence in providing a platform for diversified performances for actions taken in a protest, which could express and develop core and consistent movement repertoire.

  • Executive Summary Macau Became a Special Administrative Region
    Executive Summary Macau became a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People's Republic of China (PRC) on December 20, 1999. Macau's status, since reverting to Chinese sovereignty, is defined in the Sino-Portuguese Joint Declaration (1987) and the Basic Law, Macau's constitution. Under the concept of “One Country, Two Systems” articulated in these documents, Macau enjoys a high degree of autonomy in economic matters, and its economic system is to remain unchanged for fifty years. The Government of Macau (GOM) maintains a transparent, non-discriminatory, and free-market economy. The GOM is committed to maintaining an investor-friendly environment. In 2002, the GOM ended a long-standing gaming monopoly, awarding two gaming concessions to consortia with U.S. interests. This opening has encouraged substantial U.S. investment in casinos and hotels, and has spurred exceptionally rapid economic growth over the last few years. Macau is today the undisputed gaming capital of the world, having surpassed Las Vegas in terms of gambling revenue in 2006. U.S. investment over the past decade is estimated to exceed US$10 billion. In addition to gaming, Macau is positioning itself to be a regional center for incentive travel, conventions, and tourism. The American business community in Macau has continued to grow. In 2007, business leaders founded the American Chamber of Commerce of Macau. 1.

  • Hong Kong's Endgame and the Rule of Law (Ii): the Battle Over "The People" and the Business Community in the Transition to Chinese Rule
    HONG KONG'S ENDGAME AND THE RULE OF LAW (II): THE BATTLE OVER "THE PEOPLE" AND THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY IN THE TRANSITION TO CHINESE RULE JACQUES DELISLE* & KEVIN P. LANE- 1. INTRODUCTION Transitional Hong Kong's endgame formally came to a close with the territory's reversion to Chinese rule on July 1, 1997. How- ever, a legal and institutional order and a "rule of law" for Chi- nese-ruled Hong Kong remain works in progress. They will surely bear the mark of the conflicts that dominated the final years pre- ceding Hong Kong's legal transition from British colony to Chinese Special Administrative Region ("S.A.R."). Those endgame conflicts reflected a struggle among adherents to rival conceptions of a rule of law and a set of laws and institutions that would be adequate and acceptable for Hong Kong. They unfolded in large part through battles over the attitudes and allegiance of "the Hong Kong people" and Hong Kong's business community. Hong Kong's Endgame and the Rule of Law (I): The Struggle over Institutions and Values in the Transition to Chinese Rule ("Endgame I") focused on the first aspect of this story. It examined the political struggle among members of two coherent, but not monolithic, camps, each bound together by a distinct vision of law and sover- t Special Series Reprint: Originally printed in 18 U.

    CHINA BOOMING MACAU ©Raphaël Fournier An advertisement for the Galaxy Casino. Macau is the Las Vegas of the East, the world’s gambling paradise Gambling in Macau generates in excess of 30 billion dollars a year In October the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge was opened. It is the world’s longest bridge The bridge will further increase the number of tourists, which in 2025 are due to reach record levels of 40 million Too many according to the authorities: the peninsula is small and it is necessary to introduce a maximum limit. But How? The Grand Lisboa Casino. Opened in 2006, it is owned by Stanley Ho, holder of the gambling licenses monopoly in Macau until 2002. A tourist in front of The Venetian Casino. The lights of the Grand Lisboa Casino. Chinese gamblers taking a break outside a casino. The tourist invasion of the gambler’s paradise The Las Vegas of the East, the gambling town par excellence, one of the richest places on the planet (it is due to overtake Qatar in 2020) – it is, of course, Macau. The former Portuguese colony was returned to Chinese control in 1999, but with one particularity: it is the only place in China where gambling and casinos are legal. Macau – known by the Chinese as Aomén – is famous for two things: money (it is a tax haven) and the tourists attracted by the roulette, poker and slot machines. Here one in five inhabitants works in a casino and more than 70% of government revenues is derived from gambling, an activity that brings wealth (in excess of 30 billion dollars a year) and that in 2018 alone attracted almost 36 million visitors to Macau.

  • 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.

  • Hong Kong at a Glance: 2001-02
    COUNTRY REPORT Hong Kong At a glance: 2001-02 OVERVIEW Donald Tsang will take over as chief secretary for administration on May 1st; he will be succeeded as financial secretary by Antony Leung. The first term in office of the chief executive, Tung Chee-hwa, comes to an end in 2002. He is unpopular in Hong Kong, but trusted by China's government, and so is likely to be appointed to a second term. After growing by 10.5% in 2000, real GDP is likely to expand by just 3% in 2001 as external demand weakens. Growth will pick up to 3.9% in 2002 on the back of improving export performance. Consumer prices are likely to be broadly stable this year, but inflation will return in 2002. The current account is likely to remain in modest surplus this year and next, despite an expanding merchandise trade deficit. Key changes from last month Political outlook • The government introduced legislation in mid-March that will enable the selection of the next chief executive to be made by the same 800-person election committee that was chosen in July 2000 for the purpose of selecting legislators in the Legco election the following September.
