Not Just Another Crapshoot Development: the Challenges and Opportunities of Modelling After Las Vegas and Macao As an Econo
Khiatani Bandung J of Global South (2015) 1:8 DOI 10.1186/s40728-015-0024-8 RESEARCH Open Access Not just another crapshoot development: the challenges and opportunities of modelling after Las Vegas and Macao as an economic development strategy in the 21st century Paul Vinod Khiatani* *Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract Department of Applied Recent decades highlight an extraordinary growth of casino gambling all over the Social Sciences, City University of Hong Kong, 83 world. In the race to build casino-cities, particularly to reap economic and social Tat Chee Ave, Kowloon, Hong benefits, most aspirers look to replicate the development models of the most famous Kong casino-cities known to date, Las Vegas and Macao. Countries that have modelled after the aforementioned casino-cities have had mix results of success; e.g., Singapore, which followed Macao, yielded considerable success, while other states of the US which modelled Las Vegas, such as Atlantic City, did not have as much luck. In this respect, the countries adhere to the words of the wise; “Standing on the shoulders of the giants”. Yet, perhaps explaining why no country can really replicate the successful development experiences of Las Vegas and Macao, most countries fail to see beyond the glitz and glamor to recognize the key challenges and opportunities that helped make Las Vegas and Macao; e.g., with respect to the presence of domestic organized crime groups. This paper delves deep into identifying the key actors and circumstances that made the aforementioned cities what they are today, elucidating the integral development strategies used during their formative years. -
Brexit Referendum in Gibraltar. Result and Effect Northern Ireland7 with the Average Turnout of 70,9%
Białostockie Studia Prawnicze 2019 vol. 24 nr 1 DOI: 10.15290/bsp.2019.24.01.07 Bartłomiej H. Toszek University of Szczecin [email protected] ORCID ID: http://orcid.org/ 0000-0003-2989-7168 Brexit Referendum in Gibraltar. Result and Eff ect Abstract: Almost complete unanimity of the small Gibraltar community during 2016 referendum on Brexit remained nearly unnoticed because of including this British Overseas Territory into “combined electoral region” with South West England where most of people were in favour of the United Kingdom withdrawing from the European Union. No political diff erences with the UK (i.e. England and Wales) but concern about future possibilities of economic development outside the Single Market stimulated an intense discussion among the Gibraltarians. Th e vision of being non-subject of the EU’s four freedoms (i.e. damage or lost present prosperity basis) would force Gibraltar to re-orientate its economic relations especially by creating and developing new trade links which could gradually replace the existing ones. Despite that Gibraltarians have consequently rejected Spanish proposals of remaining inside the Single Market for the price of sharing sovereignty between the UK and Spain. It is therefore beyond doubt that the people of Gibraltar can be characterised as more British than European. Keywords: Brexit, European Union, Gibraltar, United Kingdom Th e specifi city of Gibraltar’s referendum on Brexit expressed itself not only because it was the fi rst time for any British Overseas Territory (BOT) to participate in the United Kingdom-wide referendum but also because the Gibraltarians were straight included in the decision-making process related to one of the most important question in the UK’s modern history. -

Annual Report 2016
CHAIRMAn’S foreword As another Heritage year comes to a close, we stop a moment to take stock of the work that has gone on, mainly unseen and in the background and which you will find summarised in the following pages. I would like extend my thanks to my fellow Trustees for their work and invaluable support during my period as Chairman. Most especially, I would like to thank Claire Montado, our CEO and our small team at the Main Guard who ensure that all the cogs are oiled and the wheels keep turning. Claire is taking a short break for the best of reasons - a new baby! We welcome Tasmin Griffith to the team, recruited as Executive Personal Assistant, who will help us to keep things ticking over during Claire’s maternity leave. My thanks also to all our volunteers who give up their free time to help us in our shop, run craft classes for our children, lend muscle when we need things moved and brains in helping with our archive and ever-growing library. I would also like to commend those who have helped deliver our membership programme of events; those stalwart folks who will come out, usually on a Saturday morning to host our historic walks, or run with our Tuesday evening presentations and historic talks. We couldn’t do without these dedicated folk. As always, we have much to do - please continue to support us with your continued membership and participation. Don’t forget to keep us updated with your current email address, as this is essential if you want to keep up with our latest news.
