  • Guide to Shipping Register and Shipping Tax Regime in Hong Kong Contents
    Guide to Shipping Register and Shipping Tax Regime in Hong Kong Contents The Hong Kong Shipping Register 1 Taxation of Shipping Profits in Hong Kong 8 Schedule 12 The Hong Kong Shipping Register Until 3 December 1990, the United Kingdom Merchant Shipping Acts (the “Acts”) (except for the Merchant Shipping Act 1988) applied to registration of ships and to mortgages of ships in Hong Kong. A ship registered at the Port of Hong Kong was, therefore, a British ship. Hong Kong reverted to Chinese sovereignty on 1 July 1997 and became a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China. Section VIII of Annex I to the Sino- British Joint Declaration which relates to the transfer of sovereignty states that: “The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region shall maintain Hong Kong’s previous systems of shipping management and shipping regulation, including the system for regulating conditions of seamen. The specific functions and responsibilities of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government in the field of shipping shall be defined by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government on its own. Private shipping businesses and shipping-related businesses and private container terminals in Hong Kong may continue to operate freely. The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region shall be authorised by the Central People’s Government to continue to maintain a shipping register and issue related certificates under its own legislation in the name of ‘Hong Kong, China’.” The Hong Kong Government appointed a Steering Committee in 1987 to advise the Government on the establishment of an independent shipping registry. The result was enacted as the Merchant Shipping (Registration) Ordinance (Cap 415) (the “Ordinance”), which came into effect on 3 December 1990.

  • Recent Trends in Transnational Population Inflows Into Malaysia: Policy, Issues and Challenges
    MalaysianRecent JournalTrends ofin EconomicTransnational Studies Population 51 (1): 9-28, Inflows 2014 into Malaysia: Policy, Issues andISSN Challenges 1511-4554 Recent Trends in Transnational Population Inflows into Malaysia: Policy, Issues and Challenges Azizah Kassim* Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Abstract: Malaysia’s foreign population increased rapidly in the last three decades. In 1980, of a population of over 13 million, 0.49 per cent were non- citizens. In 2010, the number of non-citizens increased to 2.3 million, making up 8.3 per cent of a total population of 28.4 million. The majority is low skill workers, both legal and irregular. There are also other groups comprising expatriates, international students, participants of the ‘Malaysia My Second Home’ programme, and asylum seekers/refugees whose numbers are relatively small. The inflows which contribute significantly to economic development have their attendant problems. This paper takes a comprehensive view of all the major inflows, taking a cue from state policy towards them. The inflows are divided into two categories: welcome and problematic inflows. It then outlines how each inflow emerged and expanded, state responses towards them and discusses related issues and challenges. All categories of migrants have both positive and negative impacts, but the low skill workers (including asylum seekers and refugees) are the most challenging especially in relation to the economy, border security, and internal order. The paper concludes with a discussion on the urgent need to review the foreign worker policy including Malaysia’s stand on asylum seekers/refugees to address the problems related to migrants. Key words: Asylum seekers and refugees, expatriates, foreign workers, international students, irregular migrants JEL classification: F22, F24, J15, J23, J38 1.

  • Automatic Visa Revalidation Fact Sheet (For F and J Visas)
    AUTOMATIC VISA REVALIDATION FACT SHEET (FOR F AND J VISAS) We recommend that all UTEP international students and exchange visitors review this Fact Sheet before traveling with an expired visa, and that they bring a copy (all pages) to the port of entry if any issues arise due to the expired visa when applying for admission. Most temporary (nonimmigrant) visitors to the United States must present a valid, unexpired U.S. visa, among other documents, in order to be admitted by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). In some cases, individuals who meet all other admissions requirements may be admitted with an expired visa through a provision called Automatic Revalidation. The following conditions must be met in order to qualify: Consecutive absence from the United States totaled 30 days or less; Travel was limited to Mexico, Canada, or an adjacent island (except Cuba)1; Nonimmigrant status is maintained as documented by a valid (unexpired) admission stamp or I‐94 Arrival/Departure Record; Authorization for the current status continues to be valid, as documented on Form I‐20 for F visa holders or Form DS‐2019 for J visa holders; Application for a new visa is not pending/has not been rejected; and Not a citizen of a country designated by the United States as a state sponsor of terrorism2. The CBP officer at the port of entry has the discretion to determine whether a visa will be automatically revalidated. Automatic Revalidation is concretely outlined in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) in two places: 8 CFR 214.1 and 22 CFR 41.112.
