It might cause inconvenience to the public, therefore organizer will notify the affected buildings regarding to the road closure and traffic diversion three weeks prior to the event. 4. Summary The continuous development of distance running in Hong Kong is relied on the support of various Government Departments and District Councils. In order to promote this event, this is vital to have the support from related Government Departments and District Councils through this brief introduction of the Hong Kong Island 10km about the event routes and road closure arrangement. This distance running event in Hong Kong Island will be one of the signature events in the city and HKAAA understood that the support from the local communities is crucial. Four Hong Kong Island District Councils have been invited to be the supporting organisations of this event and hope that it can encourage more local citizens to participate or support this event, and HKAAA aims to promote this event to become another major sporting event in Hong Kong Island. Regarding to the proposal of the traffic diversion and road closure for this event, the organizer wishes to obtain the support from the District Councils. Should you have any enquiries, please contact 2177 1449 or email to before 10th August 2018.

  • Social Interactions and the Dynamics of Protest Movements
    Persistent Political Engagement: Social Interactions and the Dynamics of Protest Movements Leonardo Bursztyn Davide Cantoni David Y. Yang Noam Yuchtman Y. Jane Zhang* September 2020 Abstract We study the causes of sustained participation in political movements. To identify the per- sistent effect of protest participation, we randomly, indirectly incentivize Hong Kong univer- sity students into participation in an antiauthoritarian protest. To identify the role of social networks, we randomize this treatment’s intensity across major-cohort cells. We find that in- centives to attend one protest within a political movement increase subsequent protest atten- dance, but only when a sufficient fraction of an individual’s social network is also incentivized to attend the initial protest. One-time mobilization shocks have dynamic consequences, with mobilization at the social network level important for sustained political engagement.
