Boas Festas! A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all. 2010 has been a very eventful year with the many successful club activities we had and especially the completion of our Macau Cultural Center in Fremont . We hope to hold many future events at our building and soon our grand opening. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank our dedicated and selfless Lusitano Board of Directors and all our volunteers throughout the year for contributing their time and effort in provid- ing all these enjoyable events for our members; and to my co- editors, bulletin contributors, photographers, and Fundação Oriente Portugal in enabling us to provide the Bulletin to the membership every quarter. With the well planned travel arrangements by Braga Travel and assistance from our Lusitano team of directors, some 160 Lusitano members attended the recent Macau Encontro making up the 1500 attendees from around the world for this reunion of the Macanese Diaspora every 3 years. It was an exceptional treat to see our ex- Governor of Macau, the honorable General Rocha Vieira and his lovely wife, at all the events during the Encontro as his contribu- tion to the Macanese community worldwide can never be forgot- ten. Our gratitude goes to Dr. Chui Sai On, Chief Executive of the Macau SAR, Dr. Jose Oliveira Rodrigues, President of the Con- selho das Comunidades Macaenses, the Encontro Organizing Committee, and all the Macau organizations involved for throwing this most elaborate event and making it such a very successful and memorable gathering for all of us. Thank you! We look forward in providing as many enjoyable and cultural events in 2011 and another visit to our counter- parts in Brasil next October with Braga Travel. If interested in this trip or if you have any suggestions for our future events, please contact us.

Yes, Treats ALL DAY LONG on Saturday, October 30th. The first treat being the first party to be held at the now open Macau Cultural Center in Fremont. Early in the morning...helpers Maria Roliz, Dorothy Oliveira, Virginia Yoshida, Sheila Jun, Nuno and Maria Joao da Cruz busied themselves with getting the facility ready for our second treat … Portuguese Language Class given by Maria Joao da Cruz happily attended by about 20 people. Thank you Maria!!! In the early afternoon we were treated to a Cooking Class by none other than Dorothy Oliveira. A group around 30 had an on hand experience making Meatloaf decorated for Halloween with a tortilla hat, a decorated "pumpkin-like face" and "haunted potato haystacks". Everyone had fun mastering: filling, folding and frying their Macanese samosas “calicok” then getting to taste them Yummy!!! BIG THANK YOU DOROTHY. Lusitano Bulletin Page 4 With a short break, we tidied the kitchen for the next crew for THE HALLOWEEN PARTY!!! Thanks to Vanessa Roliz and Jessica Xavier, the young crew came in and took the hall by storm... decorating it to spook up the evening. There were spooky noise enhancers by the door, loud speakers reeling out scary music and familiar "Munnster Tunes" and howls. Soon after came a steady stream of Halloween figures ranging from 4 weeks old to our dear Amelia ... ageless. They kept coming ... smiling, laughing, all 130, mostly disguised. There were children in bear costumes, lion costumes, fairies, princesses, ballerinas and bumble bees. You name it ... The ADULTS wore it ... Skeletons, Wonder woman. Spider woman, police woman, assorted witches, cowboys and girls, clown and even " her majesty the Queen" alongside Miss Swan, Elvira and Miss Piggy. Pictures due out ... try guessing who is who!! The evening was filled with fun, chatter, and terrific games ..."Relay Racing the eyeball "on a spoon, tug of war, and the junior and senior "Musical chairs" was hilarious. Having expended much energy ... It was Feast Time!!! Our highlight treat of the evening ... THANKS to our Cooks ... Lulu Xavier, Jessica Xavier, Candida Roliz, Vanessa Roliz and Ricardo Collaco. We all sumptuously enjoyed tender Portuguese chicken, delicious garlic collard greens, variations of minchee, spaghetti and rice!!! Dessert of cut fruits, jello, and marshmallow Krispies rounded out the already sweetened evening. Everyone had a lot of spooky fun … talking about what they want to come "As" next year ... Lastly a big THANK YOU to same 6 who set up in the morning ... for the take down, cleaning and making sure the center was restored for the next event. I salute my faithful relentless team who with everyone else who helped are ALWAYS HAPPY … “TO MAKE IT HAPPEN". GET Your Costumes Ready for the next Halloween party!!! Lusitano Bulletin Page 5 Lusitano Bulletin Page 6 Lusitano Bulletin Page 7 Annual Christmas Party By Henry “Rick” DeGraca It was truly a night to remember. There was good food, good wine, and a good group of fun loving Macanese folks. This was the Lusitano annual Christmas Party. There were 250 people and there would have been 80 more if there were room. The San Mateo Elks Lodge was transformed into a festive Christmas Wonderland. The tal- ented Christmas carolers (Sheila Jun, Eric Ribeiro, Arthur Remedios, Wendy Gutierrez, Paul Xavier, & Carlos da Costa) made the Winter Wonderland complete. Dorothy Oliveira outdid herself with the scrumptious chilicoties and calicoks. The appetizers were just the start of a yummy well-planned feast. By the time Santa arrived at the party, the plates of delicious goodies were empty. Santa “Alex Xavier” Claus was right on with the appropri- ate gifts for all the good boys and girls. Santa dutifully posed for pictures with each and every good boy and girl. Before dinner, we were treated to renditions of the national anthems of the United States and Portugal by Art Remedios and Manuel Sequeira respectively. There was plenty of food which included salads, pasta, bread, chicken, tender beef, fresh fish, fruits, etc… To pair with the abundance of food on each table were two bottles of Portuguese wine. We even had three jolly photographers who were very professional with their props and expen- sive cameras. Kudos to Cecilia Collaco Naval, Robert Roliz and Jojo Xavier. Many a memory was captured by them roaming the room and at their mobile studio. I'm looking forward to seeing some of the many pictures of the festivities. After dinner, the kids were appropriately entertained in the next room by a magician/clown/ entertainer who wowed them with his juggling and tricks. Lusitano Bulletin Page 8 Meanwhile the adults were treated to some enjoyable music by the now famous DJ Harper. The music was varied from popular oldies to the current hits and the dance floor was a popular place to be. Ice cream with chocolate syrup and cornstarch cookies were provided for dessert. I overheard someone mention that it was the best cornstarch cookies they ever had. I must agree. It was good. The hot coffee and tea was a good closure to a fine meal. After hours singing entertainment was provided by nossa gente “Leo Carion” from Brazil. Thanks Maria, the Board of Directors and the many volunteers that worked unselfishly in the planning, organizing, implementation and clean up.

  • The International Legal Personality of Macao' 24 Hong Kong Law Journal 328-341
    ANALYSIS The International Legal Personality of Macau Introduction The question of international legal status/personality1 is increasingly difficult to answer with a degree of precision since the relevance of traditional criteria and symbols of statehood is diminishing in a global environment characterised by the proliferation of not-readily-definable entities which clamour for recog­ nition as autonomous political units.2 The requirements of 'a permanent population; a defined territory; govern­ ment; and capacity to enter into relations with other States'3 — which are accepted by international lawyers as 'customary international law' — by no means represent sufficient4 or even necessary3 qualifications of statehood. Clearly, the less legalistic symbols of statehood, such as kings/presidents, armies, central banks, currency, or passports, offer no reliable yardsticks.6 Nor for that matter is membership in the United Nations particularly instructive in respect of the key distinguishing attributes of statehood. Current members include Carribbean pinpoints such as Saint Christopher and Nevis or Saint Lucia, as well as other microentities like Vanuatu in the Pacific or San Marino in Europe — but not Taiwan.7 Neither is the UN practice with regards to admission — including the implementation of stipulated8 requirements 'International legal personality' is broadly defined in terms of the capacity to exercise international rights and duties. The International Standards Organisation, which assigns two-letter codes for country names, has 239 on

It also informs on the most relevant constitutional developments occurring in the first two decades of existence of these two special regions.

It is hard not to think of autumn approaching with sights such as these and yet wishing summer to linger on a few weeks more. I hope members had a good summer and for those who took the opportunity to travel, hope they have returned home safe and sound. I imagine like many of you; I spent the better part of August tuned into the televised coverage of the Olympics in Beijing. From an outside observer’s perspective the Opening Ceremony was truly an awesome display of Chinese precision and perfection. Our Canadian athletes also gave us some thrilling moments to cheer about.

The De-colonization Period: Portugal, the People’s Republic of China and the Macau Business Elites (1949-1999) 3.1. Introduction In the previous chapter, we have seen how the geographical, political and cultural distance between Portugal and China have shaped Macau’s colonial trajectory in terms of two major (and interrelated) processes: the development of a relatively autonomous local government, and the development of equally autonomous social and economic organizations outside Macau’s governmental sphere.

I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Abstract During most of the Second World War, from the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 to the Japanese surrender in 1945, the Portuguese colony of Macau was the only neutral territory in the Pacific. During these years the colony served as a haven for hundreds of thousands who were fleeing Japanese expansion. A central aspect of Macau's war experience was the internal life of the colony. However, little or no published or archival material is available on this subject. Accordingly, the only feasible way to study this aspect of the territory's history is to draw on the testimony of those who in fact did experience wartime conditions in Macau.
