An example of both these accomplishments is featured in our cover story this issue – the International Convention and Expo Summit 2009. In its third iteration but planned, organised and managed by SHTM students this year, the Summit showcased both the talent developing at the School and prospects of the MICE sector in the region. Our coverage of events in Hong Kong also includes the Second International Conference on the Impact of Movies and Television on Tourism, which built on the emotional connection that audiences make with destinations, and the 29th International Symposium on Forecasting, chaired by the SHTM’s Associate Director, Professor Haiyan Song, and held in Asia for the first time. Turning to events in mainland China, we report on the Third International Forum on China Hotel Brand Development in Nanjing, which attracted over 500 participants from around the world. Also covered is the Sixth China Tourism Forum held in Chengdu, which was moved from its originally scheduled date to commemorate the devastating Sichuan earthquake and the subsequent recovery efforts. Of course, the School could not be successful in any of its activities or educational initiatives without the aid and advice of practising experts, and in April we had the privilege of hosting our many industry supporters at our annual Industry Appreciation Dinner. We take the opportunity to thank them again in this issue. I would also like to mention an important visit I made in July to Kaiping, which houses the only UNESCO Cultural Heritage listed site in Guangdong, to assess its potential for tourism-led development. This issue includes my reflections on the importance of the area and of social responsibility within the hospitality and tourism industry. Never satisfied with past achievements, the SHTM is always looking to the future. As we report here, the construction of our Teaching Hotel is nearing completion and we are preparing for its opening in September 2010. The best, we believe, is yet to come.

In this work, we combined the artificial fish swarm and improved particle swarm optimization (AFSA-PSO) algorithms. Taking the Window of the World station of the Shenzhen Metro Line 1 as an example, subway passenger flow prediction research was carried out. The AFSA-PSO algorithm successfully preserved the fast convergence and strong traceability of the original algorithm through particle self-adjustment and dynamic weights, and it effectively overcame its shortcomings, such as the tendency to fall into local optimum and lower convergence speed.

    Strategic Planning for Collaborative and Sustainable Development of HK and SZ for Innovative and Technology Sector: HK2030+ Review FINAL REPORT Strategic Planning for Collaborative and Sustainable Development of HK and SZ for Innovative and Technology Sector: HK2030+ Review FINAL REPORT Executive Summary Innovation and Technology (I&T) is regarded to be one of the key industries to strengthen the competitiveness and livability in cities. Shenzhen has been a pioneer in developing I&T industries in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA). With the rise of the regionalism, the competitive advantages of both cities can be maximized through the collaboration of the I&T development, as well as coping with the global trend of IT sector’s growing importance. Taking into account the literature review, international case studies, spatial strategies and policies in Shenzhen (SZ) and GBA, and the opportunities and challenges regarding the I&T sector and its strategic planning in Hong Kong (HK), HK should seize the opportunity to collaboratively develop its I&T sector with Shenzhen in order to gain sustainable benefits in its economy and society. This Study aims at recommending spatial planning strategy and policy for providing input towards the strategic planning paper of Hong Kong 2030+: Towards a Planning Vision and Strategy Transcending 2030 (HK2030+). Considering the unique and prestigious positioning of HK in the Asian context and the window of China to the global market, HK should strengthen its position as an international gateway by facilitating the regional collaboration with SZ and other cities in the GBA, as well as enhancing capacity for sustainable economic growth of the I&T sector.
