  • The Guangzhou-Hongkong Strike, 1925-1926
    The Guangzhou-Hongkong Strike, 1925-1926 Hongkong Workers in an Anti-Imperialist Movement Robert JamesHorrocks Submitted in accordancewith the requirementsfor the degreeof PhD The University of Leeds Departmentof East Asian Studies October 1994 The candidateconfirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where referencehas been made to the work of others. 11 Abstract In this thesis, I study the Guangzhou-Hongkong strike of 1925-1926. My analysis differs from past studies' suggestions that the strike was a libertarian eruption of mass protest against British imperialism and the Hongkong Government, which, according to these studies, exploited and oppressed Chinese in Guangdong and Hongkong. I argue that a political party, the CCP, led, organised, and nurtured the strike. It centralised political power in its hands and tried to impose its revolutionary visions on those under its control. First, I describe how foreign trade enriched many people outside the state. I go on to describe how Chinese-run institutions governed Hongkong's increasingly settled non-elite Chinese population. I reject ideas that Hongkong's mixed-class unions exploited workers and suggest that revolutionaries failed to transform Hongkong society either before or during the strike. My thesis shows that the strike bureaucracy was an authoritarian power structure; the strike's unprecedented political demands reflected the CCP's revolutionary political platform, which was sometimes incompatible with the interests of Hongkong's unions. I suggestthat the revolutionary elite's goals were not identical to those of the unions it claimed to represent: Hongkong unions preserved their autonomy in the face of revolutionaries' attempts to control Hongkong workers.

  • Bicycling in the New Territories of Hong Kong an Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted To: Project Advisor: Stanley Selkow, W
    Bicycling in the New Territories of Hong Kong An Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to: Project Advisor: Stanley Selkow, WPI Professor Project Co-advisor: Jeanine Skorinko, WPI Professor Sponsor Liaison: HUNG Wing-tat, PhD Submitted by: ________________________ Kimberly Gallagher ________________________ Michael Isidoro ________________________ Huong Nguyen Date: 20 February 2009 Abstract Due to the high number of bicycling accidents and recent public outcry regarding bicycling, this project examines the current trends, safety, and convenience of Hong Kong’s bicycling policy and infrastructure. Through surveys and naturalistic observation, we found that people in Hong Kong bicycle for both recreation and transportation, contrasting the prevailing government view. Additionally, we found that there is a lack of bicycling education, law abidance and enforcement, and the need for maintenance and improvement to the existing bicycling infrastructures, which may contribute to the high number of bicycling accidents. Given these findings, we set out to make recommendations to improve the safety and convenience of the bicycling system. i Acknowledgements The Hong Kong Bicycling team would like to thank the following people and organizations for their assistance over the course of this project: HUNG Wing-tat, PhD Professor Jeanine Skorinko Professor Stanley Selkow Hong Kong Cycling Alliance, especially Martin Turner Yuen Long Youth Forum Prepatory Committee, especially Thomas Yip and Fiona Sze Hong Kong Transport Department, especially Ricky Leung and Alan Lee Hong Kong Civil Engineering and Design Department, especially Ng Po-yee and Stephen Li Gary Fan, Tseung Kwan O District Councillor ii Executive Summary Recent media reports in Hong Kong paint a bleak picture of bicycling in Hong Kong by showcasing the large number of traffic accidents and the discontent residents have with the existing bicycling infrastructure.

  • Guidance Notes for the Management of Indoor Air Quality in Offices and Public Places
    Guidance Notes for the Management of Indoor Air Quality in Offices and Public Places The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Indoor Air Quality Management Group January 2019 FOREWORD In modern city life, the quality of air in the indoor environment has a significant impact on human health and comfort. People spend most of their time at homes, offices and other indoor environment. Poor indoor air quality (IAQ) can lead to discomfort, ill health, and, in the workplace, lead to absenteeism and lower productivity. Good indoor air quality safeguards the health of the building occupants and contributes to their comfort and well-being. Indoor air pollution has received little attention in the past compared with air pollution in the outdoor environment. It has now become a matter of increasing public concern, prompted partly by the emergence of new indoor air pollutants, by the isolation of the indoor environment from the natural outdoor environment in well-sealed buildings, and by the investigation of so-called Sick Building Syndrome. The World Health Organization (WHO) also recognises that biological and chemical indoor air pollution as public health risks. The health effects of individual indoor air pollutants are studied extensively. For example, the health impact of formaldehyde is well documented. Two guidelines were published by WHO in 2009 and 2010 respectively on mould and dampness, and selected indoor air pollutants. On the other hand, the health effects of a combination of indoor air pollutants are much less well understood and more difficult to tackle. This is due to the shortage of reliable data on the effects on human health; difficulties in accurately measuring air pollutants at low levels; potential interactions between pollutants; and wide variations in the degree to which building occupants are susceptible to air pollutants.
