  • Multiculturalism and Creative British South Asian Films Denise Tsang1,A
    2017 3rd Annual International Conference on Modern Education and Social Science (MESS 2017) ISBN: 978-1-60595-450-9 Multiculturalism and Creative British South Asian Films Denise Tsang1,a,* and Dahlia Zawawi2,b 1Henley Business School, University of Reading, Whiteknights, Reading, UK 2Department of Management and Marketing, Universiti Putra Malaysia,Serdang, Malaysia [email protected], [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: Multiculturalism, Creativity, Competitiveness, British South Asian Films Abstract. Globalization has enabled countries such as the UK to attain multiculturalism; however, there is no investigation in relation to the advantages of multiculturalism at the film industry level. Multiculturalism is related to the Commonwealth immigration after the Second World War period. The introduction of new cultures into the UK has enabled the growth and development of successful global industries such as the British Urban Music and British Asian Film, which have prospered over time and have now become mainstream export-led industries. Why is cultural diversity significant towards the generation of competitive advantages within the British South Asian film sector? We will explore the country specific advantage of multiculturalism in the UK and their impact on creativity of screenwriters that has contributed to successful films in the industry. Introduction Multiculturalism has been defined by Libretti as a ‘careful attention to and respect for a diversity of cultural perspectives’ [1]. Berry explained the concept in terms of the maintenance of cultural heritage and the relationships sought among cultural groups as shown in the following figure [2]. Figure 1 shows that if a society enables individuals from cultural minority groups to maintain their cultural uniqueness while establishing relationships with the core cultural groups, multiculturalism is achieved.

  • The Position Is Looking Forward to Welcoming Into Its Lively, Talented and Active Family a Priest-In-Charge to Lead Us with New Vision to a Revival
    All Saints’ Church, Halifax, The Position is looking forward to welcoming into its lively, talented and active family a priest-in-charge to lead us with new vision to a revival. Wordcloud of responses to a recent Congregational Survey asking which are the most important qualities expected of a new priest Page 2 The Prospects All Saints’ has spent some time learning, reflecting and praying on the theory of growth in terms of our relationships with God, with each other and with People Out There. There has been a certain amount of progress, particularly in discipleship so that a number of people have stepped forward to take up positions of responsibility with aptitude and enthusiasm. The pastoral care related to this activity is an important consideration going forward. There is great enthusiasm for continuing to develop discipleship; and we seek to grow in numbers, faith and finances with new leadership from an incoming priest-in-charge. Having spent much time and effort on developing a Welcome Garden, which should have been officially opened in May 2020, the church needs someone who can enthusiastically lead forward the detailed and widespread programme of events and projects a dedicated team has put in place. With this we hope to encourage the community into our precincts with an intention of leading them a step further into our church building and our church family. The enthusiasm and commitment shown over the past few years for the Welcome Garden Project and the keen interest in seeing it used, reveals an eagerness to reach out into the surrounding area.
