    Paper Number: 7 January 2003 Between Globalisation and Localisation: A Study of Hong Kong Popular Music Ho Wai Chung Hong Kong Baptist University The author welcome comments from readers. Contact details: Ho Wai Chung, Department of Music & Fine Arts, Hong kong Baptist University Email: [email protected] David C. Lam Institute for East-West Studies (LEWI) Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) LEWI Working Paper Series is an endeavour of David C. Lam Institute for East-West Studies (LEWI), a consortium with 28 member universities, to foster dialogue among scholars in the field of East-West studies. Globalisation has multiplied and accelerated inter-cultural, inter-ethnic, and inter-religious encounters, intentionally or not. In a world where time and place are increasingly compressed and interaction between East and West grows in density, numbers, and spread, East-West studies has gained a renewed mandate. LEWI’s Working Paper Series provides a forum for the speedy and informal exchange of ideas, as scholars and academic institutions attempt to grapple with issues of an inter-cultural and global nature. Circulation of this series is free of charge. Comments should be addressed directly to authors. Abstracts of papers can be downloaded from the LEWI web page at http://www.hkbu.edu.hk/~lewi/publications.html. Manuscript Submission: Scholars in East-West studies at member universities who are interested in submitting a paper for publication should send an article manuscript, preferably in a Word file via e-mail, as well as a submission form (available online) to the Series Secretary at the address below. The preferred type is Times New Roman, not less than 11 point.

  • KIT CHAN One of the Most Established and Multi-Faceted Artists
    KIT CHAN One of the most established and multi-faceted artists in Singapore, Kit Chan is often dubbed Singapore's "national treasure". Since her debut in 1993, she has been a trailblazer who has proven herself in diverse areas including singing, theatre, television drama, poetry, songwriting, entrepreneurship, creative direction and community work. In 1994, Kit propelled Singapore’s pop music into the region when she took the Taiwanese market by storm with the album " 心痛" ( Heartache ) and went on to establish herself in the scene as a powerhouse songstress. A dynamic performer, Kit took her performances to many parts of Asia, the USA, Korea, and New Zealand. She has collaborated with symphonies and orchestras in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore, winning numerous musical awards and accolades in Asia. Kit earned her moniker as Singapore’s “national treasure” when she became the first artist to do a solo performance of the National Day Parade theme song “Home” ( 家) in 1998. Her status as a national icon was further affirmed when she was appointed World Vision Singapore’s first celebrity goodwill ambassador, the National Youth Council’s first Youth Ambassador, followed by many firsts in her enduring career. In 2004, Kit took a hiatus from her illustrious performing career to further her studies, and hit the headlines when she joined prestigious international PR consultancy Hill & Knowlton as their Campaign Specialist in 2007. Even during the long break from her performing career, Kit was invited to front the first-ever Singapore Day in New York City in 2007. After her corporate sojourn, Kit performed the commissioned theme song “ One World ” at the APEC 2009 Gala Night before prominent world leaders, and made her much-anticipated return to the stage as leading lady (Li Qing) in the highest grossing Mandarin musical to-date in Singapore, “ 雨季” ( December Rains ) at Esplanade Theatre in 2010.

Aside from highlighting the roles of technological and com- mercial factors behind the regional music networks, it seeks further to position this contemporary relationship within the larger historical and cultural context.
