    The Hong Kong Polytechnic University Institute of Textiles and Clothing Strategic networking and transactional performance: a study of the Hong Kong clothing industry By Lau Mei Mei A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2007 To My Family for Their Loves, Support and Understanding ii ABSTRACT Transaction cost analysis, relational governance and social capital issues have long drawn considerable attention from marketing scholars. In this research, transaction cost analysis, relational governance and social capital are used to understand buyer-supplier networking relationships within Hong Kong. By considering these theoretical perspectives together, this research focuses on the link between the antecedents of strategic networking, the intensity of collaborative relationships and transaction costs, between Hong Kong clothing manufacturers and their suppliers. The constructs of trust, commitment, reputation, communication, cooperation, risk management, guanxi , asset specificity, relationship continuity, size of supplier base and transaction costs are studied. Since the influence of Asian culture on strategic networking has not yet been satisfactorily explored, this research attempts to fill the gap by investigating the ways in which strategic networking between buyers and suppliers reduces transaction costs in the Hong Kong clothing manufacturing industry. A theoretical framework for networking relationships was integrated from the literature to investigate three research questions: RQ 1: How do the antecedents of strategic networking affect the intensity of collaborative relationships? RQ 2: How do the antecedents of strategic networking affect transaction costs? RQ 3: How does the intensity of collaborative relationships affect transaction costs? To answer these research questions, a two-stage approach was used, which consisted of theory building and theory testing.

In both files I identified Mayor London Breed and her appointed Hunters Point Shipyard Citizens Advisory Committee as having engaged in basic freedom of speech in public comment testimony and basic requirements for meeting quorum requirements in government sponsored hearings. I was not able to convince the SOTF that, like others who attended the 07/17/19 HPSCAC Environmental & Reuse sub-commitee hearing announcing the UCSF/UCB "Independent" Review Radiological Testing Hunters Point Shipyard, I felt was selectively noticed. I do want to revisit your opinion in deciding whether SOTF had jurisdiction to cite the absence of a quorum at the announced 6pm starting time of the meeting as a public meeting violation. I am providing supporting audiovisual documentation that at the time the meeting began the three member required quorum was not present and District 10 Supervisor Shamann Walton is seated in a place holder position for the absent member. This audiovisual stream is available on the HPSCAC live stream at https://sfocii.org/hunters-point-shipyard meetings.

  • Two Housing Campaigns by the Chinese Progressive Association
    THE INTERACTION BETWEEN SERVICE AND ORGANIZING: TWO HOUSING CAMPAIGNS BY THE CHINESE PROGRESSIVE ASSOCIATION Kaori Tsukada Stanford University Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity Undergraduate Honors Thesis May 26th, 2009 i Abstract The Chinese Progressive Association is a 501(c)(3) grassroots organization in San Francisco Chinatown with thirty-seven years of organizing history. This paper focuses on two housing campaigns; the International Hotel Struggle was a ten-year collaborative effort between Bay Area grassroots organizations to prevent the demolition of a residential hotel in the 1970s, and the Housing Justice Campaign of 1997 sought to force the Department of Building Inspections to enforce housing codes. The paper will examine the differences between the organizational structures, organizing methods, and how service came to conflict with, rather than support, organizing. ii Acknowledgements There are so many people I need to thank for being part of this process, which I’ve heard others call a journey, a mountain to climb, or simply “really, you’re doing that?” It has been all these things. First of all, thanks to Professor Michael Rosenfeld for agreeing to be my advisor even when I didn’t know what I was doing, and continuing to do so when neither of us could really tell what I was trying to write. On the same note, thanks to Professor Rebecca Sandefur for taking me in when I so desperately wanted to be part of her research, and then agreeing again when I asked her to be my second reader. I also need to thank Rand Quinn, who offered continuous advice and direction throughout this process.
