Clans at Bukit Pasoh the Clan Associations of Bukit Pasoh Were, and Still Are, Integral to Their Respective Communities Chinatown Stories | Updated as of August 2019 Clans At Bukit Pasoh The clan associations of Bukit Pasoh were, and still are, integral to their respective communities. In 19th and early 20th century Singapore, social services were sorely lacking. This was where the clan associations played a vital role: providing a community and invaluable support for fellow immigrants of common ancestry, surname or language, or those who were from the same hometown. Beyond social functions, some of these clans founded schools, provided scholarships, and supported local arts and culture. They also assisted members with important life events such as weddings and funerals. These clan associations used to be concentrated along certain streets in Chinatown, such as Bukit Pasoh Road. Even though their numbers are fast dwindling today due to diminishing membership and high operating costs, the few that remain at Bukit Pasoh such as Gan Clan, Tung On Wui Kun, Koh Clan and Chin Kang Huay Kuan have adapted to the times. They continue to pool resources to promote Chinese culture, guard their heritage and benefit the community. Gan Clan This kinship clan’s early years were fraught with obstacles. Dating from 1926, it was established for immigrants with the surname Gan (颜, Yan in Mandarin) and was known as the Lu Guo Tang (鲁国堂) Gan Clan Association. During the Japanese Occupation, it ceased operations, but re-registered itself as an association after 1948. However, it dissolved again as a result of weak organisational structure. Undeterred, founding chairman Gan Yue Cheng (颜有政) suggested reviving the clan during a banquet in 1965. The idea was so well received that a year later, the official Gan Clan Association (颜氏公会) was established at 18 and 20 Bukit Pasoh Road. It had less than a hundred members then. The clan supported education and social services. In 1970, it launched the Gan Clan Association Scholarship and in 1977, it launched its Welfare Fund to provide financial assistance to members in need. A Senior Citizen Club, and Women Group and Youth Group were also established in the late 1980s. As the Gan Clan grew, its reach extended beyond local shores. In 1986, it was the first overseas Chinese group to establish a commemorative monument for their ancestors at Qufu (曲阜), the hometown of their ancestor and Confucius’s best disciple Yan Zi (言子). The process was filmed in a Japanese movie Yellow Sea. Stronger international relations were forged in 1991 when the clan organised the inaugural World Gan Congress. Some 375 clansmen from around the world attended this event, which spearheaded the international Gan Clan cyber centre, and World Gan Clan Cultural and Educational Fund. The initiative raised S$200,000. This event also laid the groundwork for the clan’s bi-annual world congresses to promote Page 1 of 3 Chinatown Stories | Updated as of August 2019 cultural exchange and collaboration. The first of its kind in Singapore, it was soon adopted by other local clans. In 1995, former Member of Parliament and businesswoman Gan See Khem was elected as the president of the Gan Clan. The daughter of the late founder Gan Yue Cheng, she was the first female president in history of clan associations in Singapore. Under her leadership, the clan launched its Heritage Centre in 2013 in collaboration with the National Heritage Board. Costing upwards of $500,000, it features Confucius and his disciple Yan Zi, the Gan history, as well as a memorial wall for ancestors. The very same year, the clan won the Clan of the Year Award by the Singapore Federation of Chinese Clan Associations. Today, the clan organises events during Chinese festivals, group outings, as well as cultural programmes for youth. This includes calligraphy classes for the script Yan Ti (颜体), developed by Yan Zhen Qing (颜真卿) during the Tang Dynasty. Tung On Wui Kun One of Singapore’s oldest clan associations, Tung On Wui Kun (东安会馆) has a history of 143 years. Established in 1876 by immigrants from the Dong Guan (东莞) and Bao An (宝安, Shenzhen 深圳 today) counties in Guangdong, China, it began with little more than 100 members. At that time, most of its early members were women living in Chinatown and working as maids, hawkers and construction. In later years, this demographic shifted to include more men. Over the next four decades, membership numbers grew and in 1919, the clan purchased a shophouse at 285 North Bridge Road. Four years later, the clan established a primary school, Chinese Dongan Yixiao (东安义校) within the clubhouse. This school provided free education for immigrants from Dong Guan and Bao An. It stopped operations in end 1964 due to dwindling student intake and insufficient funding. After the war, membership grew to more than 3,000. While the school did not reopen, the clan continued to support education by offering scholarships to the children of clansmen. In 1994, Tung On Wui Kun purchased and moved to the shophouse at 21 Bukit Pasoh Road. One of this Cantonese clan’s main contributions is its establishment of a Cantonese opera troupe (东安戏曲) in 1947. Having trained under renowned opera instructors Zhang Yao Guang (张耀光) and Guan You Tian (关有添), it created two original operas based upon Buddhist teachings: Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha Saves the World (地藏王渡世) and The Reincarnation of Yu Lin (玉林再世缘). It even invited Hong Kong acting veterans Luo Jia Ying (罗家英) and Liang Tian (梁天) to grace one of its events as special guests. With the advent of television, Cantonese opera’s popularity declined. And while few opera troupes remain in Singapore today, Tung On Opera Troupe remains a steadfast custodian of this dying art. In 1996, it was invited to perform at the Guangzhou International Opera Festival, and in 2004, it participated in the Yangcheng International Cantonese Opera Festival held in Page 2 of 3 Chinatown Stories | Updated as of August 2019 Guangyu City. Currently operating out of 23 Bukit Pasoh Road, the troupe continues to perform at community centres, charity shows and old folks’ homes. It also conducts opera singing lessons and opens rehearsals weekly. Besides preserving Singapore’s Cantonese opera heritage, the clan also organises annual Lunar New Year celebrations, international conventions, ancestral offerings and clan trips to Shenzhen and Dongguan to strengthen international ties among clansmen. Koh Clan Set up before World War II but disrupted by the war, the Koh Clan (高氏公会) was officially re-established and registered in 1948. It provided a gathering place and support system for people with the Koh (高) surname. This surname is one of the Lieshan (烈山) Five Surnames, which include Lu (吕), Lu (卢), Ji (纪) and Xu (许), originating from Hubei, China. They are variations of the surname Jiang (姜). Legend has it that people with these surnames are descended from the Farmer God Shennong, who got his surname from the Jiang waters where he was born. The clan acquired its first headquarters at Havelock Road in 1949. However, the government requisitioned it in the 1960s. In 1971, the clan purchased and relocated to a shophouse at 15 Bukit Pasoh Road, where it continues to operate. Today, the association rents out part of the shophouse to fund bursaries, the celebration of festivals and clan ties trips. A member of the international Lieshan five-surname, it also organised the 11th world conference of the Philippines Lieshan Five Surnames Association in 2008, and continues to strengthen ties with Koh kinsfolk around the world today.

Copyright Sinitic languages of Northwest China: Where did their case marking come from?* XU DAN 1. Introduction In the early 1950s, Weinreich (1953) published a monograph on language contact. Although this subject drew the attention of a few scholars, at the time it remained marginal. Over two decades, several scholars including Moravcsik (1978), Thomason and Kaufman (1988), Aikhenvald (2002), Johanson (2002), Heine and Kuteva (2005) and others began to pay more attention to language contact. As Thomason and Kaufman (1988: 23) pointed out, language is a system, or even a system of systems. Perhaps this is why previous studies (Sapir, 1921: 203; Meillet 1921: 87) indicated that grammatical categories are not easily borrowed, since grammar is a system.

  • Narrative Inquiry Into Chinese International Doctoral Students
    Volume 16, 2021 NARRATIVE INQUIRY INTO CHINESE INTERNATIONAL DOCTORAL STUDENTS’ JOURNEY: A STRENGTH-BASED PERSPECTIVE Shihua Brazill Montana State University, Bozeman, [email protected] MT, USA ABSTRACT Aim/Purpose This narrative inquiry study uses a strength-based approach to study the cross- cultural socialization journey of Chinese international doctoral students at a U.S. Land Grant university. Historically, we thought of socialization as an institu- tional or group-defined process, but “journey” taps into a rich narrative tradi- tion about individuals, how they relate to others, and the identities that they carry and develop. Background To date, research has employed a deficit perspective to study how Chinese stu- dents must adapt to their new environment. Instead, my original contribution is using narrative inquiry study to explore cross-cultural socialization and mentor- ing practices that are consonant with the cultural capital that Chinese interna- tional doctoral students bring with them. Methodology This qualitative research uses narrative inquiry to capture and understand the experiences of three Chinese international doctoral students at a Land Grant in- stitute in the U.S. Contribution This study will be especially important for administrators and faculty striving to create more diverse, supportive, and inclusive academic environments to en- hance Chinese international doctoral students’ experiences in the U.S. Moreo- ver, this study fills a gap in existing research by using a strength-based lens to provide valuable practical insights for researchers, practitioners, and policymak- ers to support the unique cross-cultural socialization of Chinese international doctoral students. Findings Using multiple conversational interviews, artifacts, and vignettes, the study sought to understand the doctoral experience of Chinese international students’ experience at an American Land Grant University.

Lifelong learning of image-conditioned generation. The goal of lifelong learning is to build a model capable of adapting to tasks that are encountered se- quentially. Traditional fine-tuning methods are susceptible to catastrophic forgetting: when we add new tasks, the network forgets how to perform previous tasks (Figure 1 (b)). Storing a separate model for each task addresses catastrophic forgetting in an inefficient way as each set of parameters is only useful for a single task (Figure 1(c)). Our Piggyback GAN achieves image-conditioned generation with high image quality on par with separate models at a lower parameter cost by efficiently utilizing stored parameters (Figure 1 (d)). Abstract. Humans accumulate knowledge in a lifelong fashion. Modern deep neural networks, on the other hand, are susceptible to catastrophic forgetting: when adapted to perform new tasks, they often fail to pre- serve their performance on previously learned tasks.

  • Accelerated WGAN Update Strategy with Loss Change Rate Balancing
    Accelerated WGAN update strategy with loss change rate balancing Xu Ouyang Ying Chen Gady Agam Illinois Institute of Technology {xouyang3, ychen245}@hawk.iit.edu, [email protected] Abstract Optimizing the discriminator in Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to completion in the inner training loop is computationally prohibitive, and on finite datasets would result in overfitting. To address this, a common update strat- egy is to alternate between k optimization steps for the dis- criminator D and one optimization step for the generator G. This strategy is repeated in various GAN algorithms where k is selected empirically. In this paper, we show that this update strategy is not optimal in terms of accuracy and con- vergence speed, and propose a new update strategy for net- works with Wasserstein GAN (WGAN) group related loss functions (e.g. WGAN, WGAN-GP, Deblur GAN, and Super resolution GAN). The proposed update strategy is based on a loss change ratio comparison of G and D. We demonstrate Figure 1. Comparison of the Frenchet Inception Distance (FID) that the proposed strategy improves both convergence speed for WGAN and the proposed adaptive WGAN with different co- and accuracy. efficient λ on the CIFAR10 dataset.

  • Verbal Projection of Comparable Translations of a Detective Story
    Contrastive PragmaticS 2 (2021) 106–132 brill.com/jocp Verbal Projection of Comparable Translations of a Detective Story Yan Wang Lecturer, Department of Translation, Faculty of Arts, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China [email protected] Abstract Based on the systemic functional framework, this paper attempts to compare verbal projection in two comparable translated texts of a detective story entitled A Scandal in Bohemia, one from the early 20th century (henceforth TT1) and the other from the early 21st century (henceforth TT2). Approximately one hundred years apart, these two translations are strikingly different in their language use, with classical Chinese being used in TT1 and plain (colloquial) Chinese being used in TT2. By analysing and comparing the lexicogrammatical features of the verbal clauses in the two translated texts, this paper summarises the choices made by the translators in these two differ- ent historical moments: when translating the source text, TT1 translators show more flexibility by incorporating more addition and omission into their translation than TT2 translators. Keywords comparable translations – verbal projection – translators’ choices 1 Introduction to Verbal Projection As detailed by Halliday and Matthiessen (2004; 2014) and Halliday and McDonald (2004), there are six process types in English and four in Chinese. However, not all these process types will be dealt with in this paper, only ver- bal types will be studied.

  • Residual Likelihood Forests 1
    YAN ZUO, TOM DRUMMOND: RESIDUAL LIKELIHOOD FORESTS 1 Residual Likelihood Forests Yan Zuo ARC Centre of Excellence for Robotic [email protected] Vision, Monash University, Australia Tom Drummond [email protected] Abstract This paper presents a novel ensemble learning approach called Residual Likelihood Forests (RLF). Our weak learners produce conditional likelihoods that are sequentially optimized using global loss in the context of previous learners within a boosting-like framework (rather than probability distributions that are measured from observed data) and are combined multiplicatively (rather than additively). This increases the efficiency of our strong classifier, allowing for the design of classifiers which are more compact in terms of model capacity. We apply our method to several machine learning classification tasks, showing significant improvements in performance. When compared against sev- eral ensemble approaches including Random Forests and Gradient Boosted Trees, RLFs offer a significant improvement in performance whilst concurrently reducing the required model size. 1 Introduction Ensemble and Boosting methods such as Random Forests [3] and AdaBoost [19] are often recognized as some of the best out-of-the-box classifiers, consistently achieving state-of- the-art performance across a wide range of computer vision tasks including applications in image classification [1], semantic segmentation [22], object recognition [12] and data clus- teringarXiv:2011.02086v1 [stat.ML] 4 Nov 2020 [16]. The success of these methods is attributed to their ability to learn models (strong learners) which possess low bias and variance through the combination of weakly correlated learners (weak learners). Forests reduce variance through averaging its weak learners over the ensemble.
