  • Hong Kong at a Glance: 2001-02
    COUNTRY REPORT Hong Kong At a glance: 2001-02 OVERVIEW Donald Tsang will take over as chief secretary for administration on May 1st; he will be succeeded as financial secretary by Antony Leung. The first term in office of the chief executive, Tung Chee-hwa, comes to an end in 2002. He is unpopular in Hong Kong, but trusted by China's government, and so is likely to be appointed to a second term. After growing by 10.5% in 2000, real GDP is likely to expand by just 3% in 2001 as external demand weakens. Growth will pick up to 3.9% in 2002 on the back of improving export performance. Consumer prices are likely to be broadly stable this year, but inflation will return in 2002. The current account is likely to remain in modest surplus this year and next, despite an expanding merchandise trade deficit. Key changes from last month Political outlook • The government introduced legislation in mid-March that will enable the selection of the next chief executive to be made by the same 800-person election committee that was chosen in July 2000 for the purpose of selecting legislators in the Legco election the following September. This reinforces the EIU's view that Tung Chee-hwa will be re-appointed to a new term. Economic policy outlook • Interest rates have continued to fall, in line with reductions by the US Federal Reserve. We expect US rates to fall by a further 100 basis points this year, compared with our previous forecast of reductions of 75 basis points.

It covers the period from 1 January to 30 June 2001. My predecessor as Foreign Secretary presented all the previous reports in this series. I am pleased to present this my first report, and to affirm HM Government’s continuing close interest in Hong Kong affairs. It is now four years since the handover. Our assessment remains broadly positive: “One Country, Two Systems” is working in practice and Hong Kong people continue to enjoy – and vigorously to defend – their fundamental rights and freedoms.

In recent years, there has been much research and theory on western film music, especially the Hollywood film industry, by musicologists and scholars in film studies, popular music studies, and other fields. However, there has been little research on Hong Kong Film music, the system of which is different from that of western film music, and therefore I will apply basic film music concepts, but using the real situation of Hong Kong film music to formulate my own argument. The methodology used in this thesis will include the application of basic concepts used by scholars of film music, such as the functions of music in film, combined with fieldwork and analysis of films.
