    Reddening or Reckoning​? An Essay on China’s Shadow on Hong Kong Media 22 Years after Handover from British Rule Stuart Lau Journalist Fellow 2018 Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism University of Oxford August 2019 CONTENTS 1.

Way forward - Is objective journalism still what Hong Kong needs? 27 1 Preface Hong Kong journalists have always stood on the front line of reporting China, a country that exercises an authoritarian system of government but is nonetheless on track to global economic prominence. The often-overlooked role of Hong Kong journalists, though, has gained international attention in summer 2019, when weeks of citywide protests has viralled into the largest-scale public opposition movement ever in the city’s 22-year history as a postcolonial political entity under Chinese sovereignty, forcing the Hong Kong government into accepting defeat over the hugely controversial extradition bill. While much can be said about the admirable professionalism of Hong Kong’s frontline journalists including reporters, photojournalists and video journalists, most of whom not having received the level of warzone-like training required amid the police’s unprecedentedly massive use of potentially lethal weapons, this essay seeks to examine something less visible and less discussed by international media and academia: the extent to which China influences Hong Kong’s media organisations, either directly or indirectly. The issue is important on three levels.

The Chief Executive announced in the 2017 Policy Address that to fully participate in and capitalise on the opportunities brought by the “Belt and Road” Initiative, and to leverage our edge under the “what the country needs, what Hong Kong is good at” policy, the HKSAR Government will step up communication with the Central Authorities to gain a deeper understanding of the policy directions and implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative. The HKSAR Government will also co-operate with enterprises and chambers of commerce to translate policies into business opportunities. 3. Capitalising on the opportunities arising from the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay Area is another focus of work mentioned in the 2017 Policy Address. The HKSAR Government will actively participate in taking forward the development of the Bay Area, so as to create favourable conditions for diversifying our industries, in particular for promoting innovation and technology development. Moreover, the HKSAR Government will seek further facilitation measures for Hong Kong people to study, work, and start up and operate business, live and retire in the Bay Area and thereby facilitating the flow of people, goods, capital and information between Hong Kong and other cities in the Bay Area and making it a quality living circle for Hong Kong people.

  • Five Gems in the Torrent: Historical Portrayals of Chinese Women in Sound and Religion
    Che: Five Gems in the Torrent 235 Five Gems in the Torrent: Historical Portrayals of Chinese Women in Sound and Religion Yuchi Che ABSTRACT: In the long history of the patriarchal culture of China, women were consistently stigmatized as naïve. What made this situation worse was the mentality that—“a woman who lacks talent is a virtuous woman”1—a famous quote, which had became the standard to measure the qualities of a woman. This portrayal was quite permanent throughout the cultural history of China, as even today, this stereotype is still prominent in the poor, rural, and illiterate areas of China. This paper highlights in a chronological fashion the portrayal of the woman in the Chinese culture through sound, music, religion, and mythology. KEY WORDS: China, woman, sound, religion, Communism, Nüwa, Pangu, Mulan, Confucianism, Lao Tsu oined by the Harvard feminist theologian Elizabeth Schüssler CFiorenza, the concept of kyriarchy “denotes the power to dominate of those ‘gentlemen’ with property and education—heads of state, slave owners, and heads of households,” and it is very applicable to the contemporary Chinese society. “Kyriarchy can best be theorized as a complex pyramidal system of super- and sub- ordination, of exploitation and domination.”2 In the Chinese society the portrayal of the woman through sound (including music) and religion (including mythology), has been quite derogatory. To reverse this cultural pattern, Su Zheng, in her work Redefining Yin and Yang: Transformation of Gender/Sexual Politics in Chinese Music, considers 235 236 HARVARD SQUARE SYMPOSIUM | THE FUTURE OF KNOWLEDGE that it is logical and useful to apply the western ways of learning music and gender to the Chinese one since, as she believes, “each culture is not an isolated authentic entity waiting to be ‘discovered’ and added to the exotic palette of world gender ideologies.”3 1) The Beginnings In the Chinese cosmogony it is said that the universe was created by leaving behind an imperfect world.
