  • Urban Forms and the Politics of Property in Colonial Hong Kong By
    Speculative Modern: Urban Forms and the Politics of Property in Colonial Hong Kong by Cecilia Louise Chu A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Nezar AlSayyad, Chair Professor C. Greig Crysler Professor Eugene F. Irschick Spring 2012 Speculative Modern: Urban Forms and the Politics of Property in Colonial Hong Kong Copyright 2012 by Cecilia Louise Chu 1 Abstract Speculative Modern: Urban Forms and the Politics of Property in Colonial Hong Kong Cecilia Louise Chu Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture University of California, Berkeley Professor Nezar AlSayyad, Chair This dissertation traces the genealogy of property development and emergence of an urban milieu in Hong Kong between the 1870s and mid 1930s. This is a period that saw the transition of colonial rule from one that relied heavily on coercion to one that was increasingly “civil,” in the sense that a growing number of native Chinese came to willingly abide by, if not whole-heartedly accept, the rules and regulations of the colonial state whilst becoming more assertive in exercising their rights under the rule of law. Long hailed for its laissez-faire credentials and market freedom, Hong Kong offers a unique context to study what I call “speculative urbanism,” wherein the colonial government’s heavy reliance on generating revenue from private property supported a lucrative housing market that enriched a large number of native property owners. Although resenting the discrimination they encountered in the colonial territory, they were able to accumulate economic and social capital by working within and around the colonial regulatory system.

  • The Story Behind Smith Street Smith Street Has Undergone Several Incarnations from Its Early Days and Is Today a Haven for Foodies
    Chinatown Stories | Updated as of August 2019 The Story behind Smith Street Smith Street has undergone several incarnations from its early days and is today a haven for foodies. Smith Street, which lies between South Bridge Road and New Bridge Road in the heart of Chinatown, has a long and interesting history. In its early days, Smith Street was nicknamed hei yuen kai (戏院街) or theatre street in Cantonese as it was closely associated with the popular 834-seat Chinese theatre Lai Chun Yuen at 36 Smith Street. For Hokkien residents, it was affectionately known as gu chia chwi hi hng koi (the latter two mean “theatre street in Kreta Ayer”). In 1901, at least 25 brothels were located at Smith Street. By 1930, however, the street ceased to be a red-light area after the Women and Girl’s Protection Ordinance was enacted in the Straits Settlements. This law brought prostitution under control. In the years after World War 2, the street was home to hawkers and traders selling household goods. In the annals of Chinatown’s history, it’s worth noting that Smith Street is the only road in the area to be named after a European – Sir Cecil Clementi Smith, Governor and Commander-in- Chief of the Straits Settlements from 1887 to 1893. Smith was a Chinese scholar and responsible for neutralising the secret societies that were rampant at the time. He is not to be confused with his nephew, Sir Cecil Clementi, who was also Governor and Commander-in-Chief of the Straits Settlements between the years 1930 and 1934.

    Vol. 17 Issue 01 APR–JUN 2021 10 / A Banquet of Malayan Fruits 16 / Nature Conservation – A History 22 / A Beastly Business 38 / The Nature of Poetry 44 / Finding Magic Everywhere 50 / Plantation Agriculture The Nature Issue Deforestation’s deadly impact in early Singapore p. 56 Our cultural beliefs influence how we view the natural environment as well as our understanding Director’s and attitudes towards animals and plants. These views and perceptions impact our relationship with the natural world. Note Some people see nature as wild and chaotic while others view nature as orderly, acting according to natural “laws”. There are those who perceive nature as an economic resource to be exploited for profit or for human enjoyment, yet there are also many who strongly believe that nature should be left untouched to flourish in its natural state. This issue of BiblioAsia looks at how human activities over the past 200 years have affected and transformed our physical environment, and how we are still living with the consequences today. This special edition accompanies an exciting new exhibition launched by the National Library – “Human x Nature” – at the Gallery on Level 10 of the National Library Building on Victoria Street. Do visit the exhibition, which will run until September this year. Georgina Wong, one of the curators of the show, opens this issue by exploring the relationship between European naturalists and the local community as plants and animals new to the West were uncovered. Not unexpectedly, indigenous input was often played down, dismissed, or exoticised. Farish Noor examines this phenomenon by taking a hard look at Walter Skeat’s book Malay Magic.

Isolated in their offices in Whitehall, Colonial Office officials devised the Malayan Union p o licy, embracing in a "union" a ll the Malay States and including, from the Straits Settlements, Penang and Malacca but excluding Singapore, which developed as a separate constitutional entity although the possibility of a future "fusion" with the proposed Malayan Union was not discounted; the new arrangements envisaged also the creation of a form o f "common citizenship" that would confer political rights to Malaya's non-Malay population.

Bharrat Jagdeo General Editor: David Dabydeen Consulting Editor: Ian McDonald Director of Research: Letizia Gramaglia iii iv SERIES PREFACE Modern Guyana came into being, in the Western imagination, through the travelogue of Sir Walter Ralegh, The Discoverie of Guiana (1595). Ralegh was as beguiled by Guiana’s landscape (“I never saw a more beautiful country…”) as he was by the prospect of plunder (“every stone we stooped to take up promised either gold or silver by his complexion”). Ralegh’s contemporaries, too, were doubly inspired, writing, as Thoreau says, of Guiana’s “majestic forests”, but also of its earth, “resplendent with gold.” By the eighteenth century, when the trade in Africans was in full swing, writers cared less for Guiana’s beauty than for its mineral wealth. Sugar was the poet’s muse, hence the epic work by James Grainger The Sugar Cane (1764), a poem which deals with subjects such as how best to manure the sugar cane plant, the most effective diet for the African slaves, worming techniques, etc.

  • Principiis Rebellionis in India Orientalis: Taming British Counterinsurgency in Malaya 1944-1954
    The London School of Economics and Political Science Principiis Rebellionis in India Orientalis: Taming British Counterinsurgency in Malaya 1944-1954 Meor Alif Meor Azalan A thesis submitted to the Department of Government of the London School of Economics and Political Science for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, June 2018 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it).

I declare that my thesis consists of 97,718 words (excluding quotes; including quotes: 112,810) 2 Abstract This work dissects Britain's counter-insurgency campaign during the Malayan Emergency and her wider experience at decolonisation in Southeast Asia. The Darurat - as it is known in the local Malay language - is considered as the typical case of a successful modern-day counter-insurgency campaign. The conventional theoretical wisdom posits; that in order to win a counter- insurgency campaign, the force responsible for such a campaign must, similar to Malaya, embark upon a policy of ‘winning hearts and minds’.
