By Order of the General Council Vice-chairperson HIRA Khan - 2 - Message from the Chairman In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful Peace and Blessing be upon our Beloved Prophet Muhammad, His Companions and His Family Dear Brothers & Sisters, Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh As I began to write this message, I realized another year has passed in the blink of an eye; however it has been a fruitful and challenging year for me as the chairman of Hong Kong Islamic Youth Association, and the entire team that drives HKIYA. With the endless dedication and diligence of the Executive Council, Sub-committees and staff members, we made solid progress on many fronts, including Education Bureau (EDB) grant for school-based support, the Muslim Youth Training Camp 2015, Peer Counsellor Training Programmes for Ethnic Minority Women, and Muslim Girls Swimming Course. The school-based support fund has enabled us to expand our support to secondary school students. The association is providing after school English and Math tutorial classes from secondary one to secondary three students. We are also conducting Martial Arts and Dance Class for girls; Bakery Class, Art & Design Class and Football training is offered to all secondary school students. Next, the Muslim Youth Training Camp was held with the aim to promote ‘Love & Tolerance’ amongst Muslim youth. The camp was sponsored by the World Assembly of Muslim Youth. Furthermore, the Peer Counsellor Training Programme for EM Women is the first step towards a tailor- made counseling service for Muslims and non-Chinese. Last but not the least; the Muslim Girls Swimming Course has been organized in co-operation with the Jockey Club Scholars Alumni Association (JCSAA). A female instructor and Islamic swimming suit were arranged. Throughout the year, HKIYA has worked closely with other organizations, NGOs and individual volunteers. Their cooperation and contributions towards the association’s functions have resulted in the successful completion of our progammes. On behalf of HKIYA, I would like to express my greatest gratitude to all the organizations and individuals, with special thanks to Chinese Muslims Cultural & Fraternal Association, Islamic Union of HK, The Incorporated Trustees of the Islamic Community Fund of HK, Hong Kong Muslim Women Association, Islamic Kasim Tuet Memorial College, WAMY, RISEAP, RainLily, Jockey Club Scholars Alumni Association, Haji Noohu Yeung L.

I would like to assure all the members that the association will continue expanding its service scope, not only for the community but the society at large. Once again, I would - 3 - like to thank the executive council of the association and volunteers for their precious time and selfless contribution for HKIYA.

This is what differentiates a city from its peers. We could understand this as the “DNA” of a city: the values and behaviours that lead people to create the organisations, businesses and communities that make a city what it is. Challenged by both internal and external changes, Hong Kong is currently trying to determine what its future role in China, Asia and the world will be. But overcoming uncertainty about the future will need certainty about who we are and where we are now. By understanding the “DNA” of Hong Kong, we can build a framework to analyse what makes the city unique. The DNA framework proposed herein has four stages: the bases, macro-level structural factors that do not change in the long-term, help to shape the elements of Hong Kong’s DNA, which are the unique attitudes and mindsets held by Hong Kong’s residents. These elements are expressed by Hong Kong people as both positive and negative behaviours, and are manifested as the visible things we see in the city.

Signature: ________________________________________ Date: June 2011 PhD Thesis Title Dividing Classes: Segregation of Ethnic Minorities in Hong Kong Schools by MA-THERESA M. CUNANAN 2011 Abstract This thesis examines some of the issues surrounding the schooling experiences of ethnic minority students who attend mainstream, but segregated, secondary schools in Hong Kong. These ethnic minority students have been labelled by the Education Bureau as “non-Chinese speaking” (NCS) students and the schools they attend have been labelled as “designated schools”. This is a case study which looks into the complex ways in which meritocracy, segregation and social justice work within the Hong Kong education system, affecting higher education opportunities for ethnic minorities. It is commonly accepted that higher education opens doors to more opportunities and higher socio-economic status.
