  • *All Views Expressed in Written and Delivered Testimony Are Those of the Author Alone and Not of the U.S
    February 20, 2020 Isaac B. Kardon, Ph.D. – Assistant Professor, U.S. Naval War College, China Maritime Studies Institute* Testimony before the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission Hearing: China’s Military Power Projection and U.S. National Interests Panel II: China’s Development of Expeditionary Capabilities: “Bases and Access Points” 1. Where and how is China securing bases and other access points to preposition materiel and facilitate its expeditionary capabilities? Previous testimony has addressed the various military logistics vessels and transport aircraft that supply People’s Liberation Army (PLA) forces operating abroad. This method is costly, inefficient, and provides insufficient capacity to sustain longer and more complex military activities beyond the range of mainland logistics networks. Yet, with the notable exception of the sole military “support base” (baozhang jidi, 保障基地)1 in Djibouti, these platforms are the PLA’s only organic mode of “strategic delivery” (zhanlüe tousong, 战略投送) to project military power overseas. Lacking a network of overseas bases in the short to medium term, the PLA must rely on a variety of commercial access points in order to operate beyond the first island chain. Because the PLA Navy (PLAN) is the service branch to which virtually all of these missions fall, this testimony focuses on port facilities. The PLAN depends on commercial ports to support its growing operations overseas. Over the course of deploying 34 escort task forces (ETF) since 2008 to perform an anti-piracy mission in the Gulf of Aden, the PLAN has developed a pattern of procuring commercial husbanding services for fuel and supplies at hundreds of ports across the globe.

    News submitted by: Mr. WANG Bingfeng, from the UNEVOC Centre Coordinator at Shenzen Polytechnic (People’s Republic of China) Date: 12/06/2018 Chinese UNEVOC Centre hosts an International Conference From May 11, 2018 to May 12, 2018, the Belt & Road International Conference on TVET themed at "Mutual Learning and Mutual Benefit" was successfully held at Shenzhen Polytechnic. Under the guidance of the Department of Vocational and Adult Education of the Ministry of Education and the Secretariat of National Commission of the People's Republic of China for UNESCO, the conference was sponsored by the Chinese Society of Vocational and Technical Education, the Central Institute for Vocational and Technical Education of the Ministry of Education and the Department of Education of Guangdong Province, and organized by Shenzhen Polytechnic. More than 100 renowned TVET experts from 21 countries and regions and more than 200 experts, scholars and representatives from vocational colleges, enterprises and sectors in China (including 110 presidents of domestic and international colleges) gathered at Shenzhen Polytechnic to have in-depth dialogues on topics like "Belt and Road" construction and TVET. The purpose was to give advices and suggestions on building a "Belt and Road" TVET community, facilitating the reform and development of regional TVET and providing more high-level technical talents for the "Belt and Road" Initiative. The conference was divided into eight sessions, respectively opening ceremony, keynote speeches, policy dialogues, dialogue about cutting-edge topics, college-enterprise dialogue, presidents’ dialogue, culture performance of culture-oriented education and closing ceremony. During the conference, an in-depth dialogue was made on international cooperation in and development of TVET under the context of the "Belt and Road" Initiative, an inauguration ceremony was held respectively for two TVET research centres, four cooperation agreements were signed and a Shenzhen Consensus was reached.

  • Dwelling in Shenzhen: Development of Living Environment from 1979 to 2018
    Dwelling in Shenzhen: Development of Living Environment from 1979 to 2018 Xiaoqing Kong Master of Architecture Design A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2020 School of Historical and Philosophical Inquiry Abstract Shenzhen, one of the fastest growing cities in the world, is the benchmark of China’s new generation of cities. As the pioneer of the economic reform, Shenzhen has developed from a small border town to an international metropolis. Shenzhen government solved the housing demand of the huge population, thereby transforming Shenzhen from an immigrant city to a settled city. By studying Shenzhen’s housing development in the past 40 years, this thesis argues that housing development is a process of competition and cooperation among three groups, namely, the government, the developer, and the buyers, constantly competing for their respective interests and goals. This competing and cooperating process is dynamic and needs constant adjustment and balancing of the interests of the three groups. Moreover, this thesis examines the means and results of the three groups in the tripartite competition and cooperation, and delineates that the government is the dominant player responsible for preserving the competitive balance of this tripartite game, a role vital for housing development and urban growth in China. In the new round of competition between cities for talent and capital, only when the government correctly and effectively uses its power to make the three groups interacting benignly and achieving a certain degree of benefit respectively can the dynamic balance be maintained, thereby furthering development of Chinese cities.

  • A Data-Driven Urban Metro Management Approach for Crowd Density Control

Large crowding events in big cities pose great challenges to local governments since crowd disasters may occur when crowd density exceeds the safety threshold. We develop an optimization model to generate the emergent train stop-skipping schemes during large crowding events, which can postpone the arrival of crowds. A two-layer transportation network, which includes a pedestrian network and the urban metro network, is proposed to better simulate the crowd gathering process. Urban smartcard data is used to obtain actual passenger travel demand. +e objective function of the developed model minimizes the passengers’ total waiting time cost and travel time cost under the pedestrian density constraint and the crowd density constraint.

  • An Adapted Geographically Weighted Lasso (Ada-GWL) Model For
    An Adapted Geographically Weighted Lasso (Ada-GWL) model for estimating metro ridership Yuxin He∗1, Yang Zhaoy2 and Kwok Leung Tsuiz1,2 1School of Data Science, City University of Hong Kong, Kowloon, Hong Kong 2Centre for Systems Informatics Engineering, City University of Hong Kong, Kowloon, Hong Kong April 3, 2019 Abstract Ridership estimation at station level plays a critical role in metro transportation planning. Among various existing ridership estimation methods, direct demand model has been recognized as an effective approach. However, existing direct demand models including Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) have rarely included local model selection in ridership estimation. In practice, acquiring insights into metro ridership under multiple influencing factors from a local perspective is important for passenger volume management and transportation planning operations adapting to local conditions. In this study, we propose an Adapted Geographi- cally Weighted Lasso (Ada-GWL) framework for modelling metro ridership, which performs regression-coefficient shrinkage and local model selection. It takes metro network connection intermedia into account and adopts network-based distance metric instead of Euclidean-based distance metric, making it so-called adapted to the context of metro networks. The real-world arXiv:1904.01378v1 [stat.AP] 2 Apr 2019 case of Shenzhen Metro is used to validate the superiority of our proposed model. The results show that the Ada-GWL model performs the best compared with the global model (Ordinary Least Square (OLS), GWR, GWR calibrated with network-based distance metric and GWL in terms of estimation error of the dependent variable and goodness-of-fit. Through understanding the variation of each coefficient across space (elasticities) and variables selection of each station, ∗email: [email protected] yCorresponding author, email: [email protected] zemail: [email protected] 1 it provides more realistic conclusions based on local analysis.
