  • Corps-AR-2014 Annual Report 2014
    HONG KONG AIR CADET CORPS Report of the Chairman of the Executive Board for the period of April 2013 to March 2014 The Financial Year (FY) 2013/14 was another busy year for the Hong Kong Air Cadet Corps, and again one that took in the stride several ground breaking accomplishments, made possible, on one hand, by generous external support in terms of resources and policy, and on the other by a spirited and highly dedicated staff, both volunteer and salaried. The first of such breakthroughs is the achievement of limited serviceable status by the Ha Fa Shan Training Camp, the first fully equipped campsite ever owned and operated by the Corps in its 43 years of existence. A brief recapitulation might be useful here: with endorsement by the Home Affairs Bureau (HAB), the Corps entered into a tenancy agreement with the HKSAR Government in late 2011 to run a Training Camp at Ha Fa Shan, Tsuen Wan. In 2012, with support from the Tsuen Wan District Council, the laying of site foundation and the refurbishment of the camp infrastructure were completed following a generous $6.5m endowment from the Yuen Yuen Institute. Again with unflagging support from the HAB, the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust approved a grant of $3.6m over a three year period to enable our implementation of a Youth Anti-Adversity Project at the Camp. The Project’s primary objective, in close alignment with HAB’s Youth Policy, is to improve the adversity quotient (AQ) of young people by subjecting them to series leadership tasks and physical challenges, thereby instilling in them determination and a positive mindset in the face of hardship.

  • SUN YAT-SENS: CONTESTED IMAGES of a POLITICAL ICON By
    SUN YAT-SENS: CONTESTED IMAGES OF A POLITICAL ICON by THOMAS EVAN FISCHER A THESIS Presented to the Asian Studies Program and the Graduate School of the University of Oregon in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts September 2020 THESIS APPROVAL PAGE Student: Thomas Evan Fischer Title: Sun Yat-sens: Contested Images of a Political Icon This thesis has been accepted and approved in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Arts degree in the Asian Studies Program by: Bryna Goodman Chairperson Ina Asim Member Daniel Buck Member and Kate Mondloch Interim Vice Provost and Dean of the Graduate School Original approval signatures are on file with the University of Oregon Graduate School. Degree awarded September 2020 ii © 2020 Thomas Evan Fischer iii THESIS ABSTRACT Thomas Evan Fischer Master of Arts Asian Studies Program September 2020 Title: Sun Yat-sens: Contested Images of a Political Icon This thesis explores the afterlives of the Chinese revolutionary icon Sun Yat- sen and their relevant contexts, arguing that these contexts have given rise to different images of the same figure. It serves as a gallery in which these different images are put into conversation with one another, revealing new insights into each. Key to the discussion, Sun is first introduced in a short biography. Then, the thesis moves to his different afterlives: Sun and the fight for his posthumous approval in the Republic of China before 1949; Sun and his usage in Chinese Communist political rhetoric from 1956 through 2016; Sun and his changing image in the ROC-Taiwan, a change that reflects the contentious political environment of an increasingly bentu Taiwan; Sun and two of his images among the overseas Chinese of Hawaii and Penang.

For a definitive version of this work, please refer to the published source: Remaking Guangzhou Geo-identity and Place-making on Sina Weibo Abstract This study uses the concept of ‘place-making’ to consider the formation of geo-identity on Sina Weibo, one of the most popular microblogging services in China. Besides articulating state- public confrontation during major social controversies, Weibo has been used to recollect and re- narrate the memories of a city, such as Guangzhou, where dramatic social and cultural changes took place during the economic reform era. This study aims to explore how Weibo sustains political engagement through maintaining Guangzhou people’s sense of belonging to their city. By collecting data from a Weibo group over a period of twelve months, I argue that Weibo politics does not only take place during contentious events, but are sustained within the realm of everyday life. This study has the potential to contribute to the limited knowledge of Weibo use during non-contentious period in China, hence, broadening the notion of popular polity in the age of social media.

  • An Ethnographic Study in Hong Kong
    Journal of Global Literacies, Technologies, and Emerging Pedagogies Volume V, Issue I, February 2019, pp. 772-805 Facebook Literacies – an ethnographic study in Hong Kong Winnie Siu-yee Ho,* PhD Hong Kong Program Syracuse University Syracuse, New York [email protected] Abstract: The core aim of this research is to explore how the everyday self-generated literacy practices and the interactions of adult volunteers at an aviation-centred uniformed youth group are shaped by new technologies, with a particular focus on a social networking site, Facebook, as the most popular social virtual world in Hong Kong. These adult volunteers are all Cantonese speakers who interact in English as L2 online. The study is grounded in the framework of literacy as a social practice (Barton & Hamilton, 2012) and the community of practice (CoP) learning theory (Wenger, 1998). Taking a CoP perspective, this chapter also views the uniformed group as a community sharing common knowledge, ideas and practices. The research was conducted using a linguistic ethnographic approach. Based on the analysis of multimodal texts on Facebook, interviews and participant observation, this study contributes to the understanding of new practices in social media and other technologies, which will become more prevalent in volunteering environments. The significance of online literacy practices cannot be considered in isolation from their unique sociocultural context. *Winnie Siu-yee Ho obtained her PhD in Applied Linguistics at Lancaster University, U.K. She teaches Cantonese at the Syracuse University (Hong Kong Programme) and Applied Linguistics at the Open University of Hong Kong.
