  • Religion and Custom
    Chapter 20 Religion and Custom Hong Kong’s Basic Law guarantees religious freedom and many religions are practised in Hong Kong, with the followers of Buddhism and Taoism the most numerous. Traditional Chinese festivals are celebrated along with religious holidays from a variety of faiths. Traditional Festivals The Lunar New Year is the most important festival in the Chinese calendar. It is celebrated during the days of the first new moon of the year, an auspicious time for friends and relatives to visit each other and to exchange gifts while children and unmarried adults receive lai see, or ‘lucky’ money, in red packets. The Dragon Boat Festival is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month to honour an ancient Chinese poet, Qu Yuan, who killed himself by jumping into a river rather than compromise his honour. Dragon boat races and the eating of rice dumplings, wrapped in bamboo leaves, are the highlights of this festival. For the Mid-Autumn Festival, on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, grown-ups and children gather under the full moon with colourful lanterns and eat mooncakes, a traditional festival delicacy. The Ching Ming Festival in spring and the Chung Yeung Festival in autumn are marked by visits to ancestral graves. Many people mark Chung Yeung by climbing hills in remembrance of one family’s flight up a mountain in ancient times to escape a plague. Buddhism Buddhism is one of the main religions practised in Hong Kong, with around one million followers and over 400 temples, some dating back more than 700 years.

  • Islamic Modernism in China: Chinese Muslim Elites, Guomindang Nation-Building, and the Limits of the Global Umma, 1900-1960
    Islamic Modernism in China: Chinese Muslim Elites, Guomindang Nation-Building, and the Limits of the Global Umma, 1900-1960 John Tseh-han Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 John Tseh-han Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Islamic Modernism in China: Chinese Muslim Elites, Guomindang Nation-Building, and the Limits of the Global Umma, 1900-1960 John Tseh-han Chen Modern Chinese Muslims’ increasing connections with the Islamic world conditioned and were conditioned by their elites’ integrationist politics in China. Chinese Muslims (the “Hui”) faced a predicament during the Qing and Ottoman empire-to-nation transitions, seeking both increased contact with Muslims outside China and greater physical and sociopolitical security within the new Chinese nation-state. On the one hand, new communication and transport technologies allowed them unprecedented opportunities for transnational dialogue after centuries of real and perceived isolation. On the other, the Qing’s violent suppression of Muslim uprisings in the late nineteenth century loomed over them, as did the inescapable Han-centrism of Chinese nationalism, the ongoing intercommunal tensions between Muslims and Han, and the general territorial instability of China’s Republican era (1911-49). As a result, Islamic modernism—a set of positions emphasizing both reason and orthodoxy, and arguing that true or original Islam is compatible with science, education, democracy, women’s rights, and other “modern” norms— took on new meanings in the context of Chinese nation-making. In an emerging dynamic, ethos, and discourse of “transnationalist integrationism,” leading Chinese Muslims transformed Islamic modernism, a supposedly foreign body of thought meant to promote unity and renewal, into a reservoir of concepts and arguments to explain and justify the place of Islam and Muslims in China, and in so doing made it an integral component of Chinese state- and nation-building.

  • The DNA of Hong Kong — the Bases 21
    1 Table of Contents Executive Summary 3 Introduction and Background 6 Discovering the DNA of a City 12 The DNA of Hong Kong — The Bases 21 The DNA of Hong Kong — The Manifestations 33 – Connectivity 34 – Law and Justice 38 – Business Environment 43 – Culture 47 – Human Welfare 51 The DNA of Hong Kong 60 Illustrative Examples 65 The Future of Hong Kong’s DNA 86 2 Executive Summary (1/3) Discovering the DNA of a City All major cities, including Hong Kong, have a certain attitude and mindset that defines the people that live there. 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.

    Chapter 17: Religion and Custom Hong Kong’s Basic Law guarantees religious freedom, allowing a diversity of faiths to coexist harmoniously. The following information on different religions, which was updated to 31 December 2019, was extracted from the Hong Kong Yearbook. Buddhism Buddhism is one of the main religions practised in Hong Kong, with around one million followers and over 400 temples, some dating back more than 700 years.

Taoism Taoism is an indigenous religion of China with a 2,000-year history. Hong Kong has over one million followers and more than 300 Taoist abbeys and temples, according to a 2010 survey by the Hong Kong Taoist Association. The Hong Kong Taoist Association, set upby representatives of major temples in1961, organises religious, cultural and charitable activities to promote the Taoist scriptures and moral values. The annual Taoist Day, held on the second Sunday of March, celebrates the birthday of the deity Taishang Laojun, or Laozi, whom Taoists believe is the founder of Taoism and the author of Tao Te Ching, the main Taoist textdated to the late 4th century BC. Confucianism Confucianism is a set of religious, ethical and philosophical teachings derived from ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius that emphasises the importance of tradition and rites. These values are introduced in local primary, secondary and university teaching through the advocacy of the Confucian Academy.
