It contains information on recent activities as well as news about some of our future planned events which we hope you will enjoy. The picture above documents our well attended and enjoyable tour of Dragon Garden for members, which was followed by a visit to a Chiu Chow temple where veneration of ancestors was the theme and then a delicious goose lunch at Sham Tseng. We continue to provide you with written records of our visit events, but over the past 2 - 3 years for talks- and with our speakers' consent- we are now arranging audio recordings, which are catalogued and held in our Library collection. Our Honorary Librarian, Vivian So, can provide you with details if you are interested to follow up. Your ideas and suggestions to members of our Activities Committee for future talks and visits, both local and across the border and further afield, are most welcome. Hong Kong is an energetic and vibrant community and there are many aspects of its life and history which provide great opportunities for documentation and exploration. Our AGM was held in April 2019 at the Hong Kong Club. We had the opportunity to thank Dr Gillian Bickley for her many years of service to RAS as member and regular contributor to RAS events, as she stepped down from her role as Council Member and latterly Vice President. We also welcomed Dr CM Kwong and Roy Delbyck as new Council Members. The post of President remains vacant, but the work of the Society continues with the Vice President and the capable support of Council members. Over the summer we will be upgrading the IT support for our member database to a more user-friendly set up, so that our Administrator can provide you, hopefully, with a more efficient service. Preparation for the RAS Journal 59 is well advanced. Next year will be the 60th Anniversary Jubilee Year for the Journal and planning for this celebration edition by Honorary Editor, Stephen Davies and colleagues, is already under way. Many of you will be travelling over the summer months, but whether you are here in Hong Kong or overseas, we look forward to your feedback and seeing you at future events. Your contributions in various capacities and different ways to the work of the RAS are well appreciated. Helen Tinsley RASHK Vice President and Activities Coordinator 3 Royal Asiatic Society Hong Kong | 2019 Future Activities LOCAL VISIT The Hong Kong Jockey Club Series: A History of the World in 100 Objects from the British Museum Sat • 10 Aug 2019 This exhibition originated from a popular BBC radio programme hosted by Neil MacGregor, the director of the British Museum at the time, telling the story of human civilisation using 100 objects selected from the museum’s encyclopedic collections. Unlike traditional narratives that focus on selected periods or cultural zones, this exhibition reviews human development from a new perspective. Tracing human activity from 2 million years ago to the present, the stories behind the objects reveal the similarities across different geographical locations and cultures in terms of power, belief, art, trading and technology. Through this broadened vision, visitors may gain new insights about the world in which we live. Exhibits are selected from various geographical areas, showing man-made objects, not only exquisite art pieces, but also, and in a larger proportion, everyday utensils and implements, as well as currency, scientific instruments and ritual items. Highlights include the first human stone tool from Africa, the Standard of Ur (an artifact from one of the world’s most ancient cities, in Iraq), fifty Manillas (a currency involved in the slave trade), the ship’s chronometer used on Charles Darwin’s voyage on the HMS Beagle , Japanese artist Hokusai's famous woodblock print “The Great Wave off Kanagawa” from the series "Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji", and a print of David Hockney, a famous contemporary artist, which explores the issue of LGBT rights. Each object tells a story that invites you to travel in time and geography to thought-provoking corners of the world.

However, we did not manage a recording at this well-attended talk, so it is important for the Newsletter to recognise a splendid joint presentation by Mark O’Neill and his colleague Kevin Lee, based on their book of the same title. Mark took the opportunity to remind us of some of the known and not so well known contributions made by the South Asian communities to Hong Kong’s rich history in the colonial period and beyond – in donations that helped found some of our important institutions, businesses and the professions, government and disciplinary services, native cuisines and religious practices. Kevin then shared with us a few of his wonderful photographs which illustrated these narratives so well. Who can forget his 2018 picture of a sea of mainly women Muslim worshippers in Victoria Park celebrating Eid al-Fitr at the end of Ramadan’s month of fasting? RAS members and guests who attended enjoyed the convivial Café 8 setting and for those who wished to study the topic further, Mark and Kevin’s book was available for purchase.

  • Traffic and Transport Arrangements for the Commissioning of Shenzhen Bay Port and Northwest New Territories Traffic and Infrastructure Review
    LC Paper No. CB(1)2023/06-07(05) For Discussion on 9 July 2007 Legislative Council Panel on Transport Traffic and Transport Arrangements for the commissioning of Shenzhen Bay Port and Northwest New Territories Traffic and Infrastructure Review PURPOSE This paper - (i) updates Members on the traffic and transport arrangements upon the commissioning of Shenzhen Bay Port (SBP); and (ii) informs Members of the latest progress of the Northwest New Territories (NWNT) Traffic and Infrastructure Review (the Review). TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT ARRANGEMENTS UPON THE COMMISSIONING OF SBP Quota arrangements and public transport services 2. The SBP will be open to traffic from 6 pm on 1 July 2007. As we informed Members earlier, we have reached agreement with the relevant Guangdong authorities on the number of quotas to be issued for cross-boundary private cars and coaches. For private cars, we will initially issue 1 500 new SBP quotas. In addition, to ease congestion at the existing control points, we will encourage existing holders of quotas for other crossings to switch to SBP. In this regard, we will allow a 3-month trial period upon the commissioning of SBP, during which existing quota-holders can try to use SBP. They may then apply for a SBP quota by surrendering their quotas for other existing crossings. The Guangdong authorities have started accepting applications for private car quotas. The Transport Department (TD) earlier sent letters to existing quota holders to invite them to switch to use SBP and to inform them of the arrangements for the trial period. 3. Regarding cross-boundary coaches, TD has completed the exercise to allocate 300 quotas to the operators.

    立法會 Legislative Council LC Paper No. CB(1)2012/13-14(02) Ref. : CB1/PS/1/12 Panel on Transport Subcommittee on Matters Relating to Railways Special meeting on 29 September 2014 Background brief on railway development strategy Purpose 1. This paper recaps the activities of the Stage 1 and Stage 2 public engagement exercises of the Review and Update of the Railway Development Strategy 2000 conducted by the Administration from April 2012 to May 2013. It also summarizes the major views and concerns expressed by Members during previous discussions relevant to this subject. Background Railway Development Strategy 2000 2. According to the information provided by the Administration1, Railway Development Strategy 2000 ("RDS 2000") was announced in May 2000. It maps out the railway network expansion plan for Hong Kong up to the year 2016, so as to tie in with the overall development in Hong Kong, to meet the daily traffic need of the public, as well as to reinforce the sustainable transport policy of making railways as the backbone of the passenger transport system, providing Hong Kong citizens with convenient and safe public transport services at reasonable prices. 3. RDS 2000 recommended six priority railway schemes. Out of these projects, the Kowloon Southern Link was commissioned in 2009. The other five railway projects recommended by RDS 2000, i.e. the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link (Hong Kong 1 Source: The Administration's paper on "Review and Update of the Railway Development Strategy 2000" in November 2010 [LC Paper No. CB(1)256/10-11(03)] - 2 - Section), West Island line, South Island line (East), Kwun Tong Line Extension and Shatin to Central Link, are being implemented in full swing.
