  • Chapter 2 Quality City and Quality Life
    Chapter 2 Quality City And Quality Life Preamble The development of Hong Kong into a knowledge-based economy requires talent from around the world, and a quality city life is essential to attracting talent. The concept of “Progressive Development” advocated by the Chief Executive is to develop a quality city life by striking a balance between economic development and environmental protection and conservation. In the arena of environmental protection, we launched a basket of new initiatives in areas such as air quality improvement, waste management and promoting a low-carbon economy and lifestyle. Environmental protection is a long-term and continuing commitment. The Government will continue to promote regional co-operation to improve air quality within the region, and to develop the PRD Region into a green and quality living area. Global warming is an international concern. We will meet the challenge of climate change with early planning. In particular, we will enhance energy effi ciency and promote a low carbon economy — an economy based on low energy consumption and low pollution. Moreover, we will strengthen our cultural software, develop our audience base, and support more small and medium arts groups to tie in with the development of the West Kowloon Cultural District, which is proceeding as planned. 28 Quality City And Quality Life We will also continue our efforts to beautify the shoreline of Victoria Harbour by turning it into a landmark to be enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. 29 Quality City And Quality Life New Initiatives We will: • Oversee the progressive launch of digital audio broadcasting services by three commercial licensees and Radio Television Hong Kong as from late 2011/early 2012.

The key learning points are as follows: Learning Activity 1: Salute to the Athletes ✧ Students know that the Basic Law allows Hong Kong athletes to join international sports events under the name “Hong Kong, China”. ✧ Students cultivate the sporting spirit of “never give up” through the stories of hard-working and outstanding Hong Kong athletes. ✧ Students appreciate the athletes who work hard for the glory of the State and Hong Kong.

  • An Evaluation of 48 Leisure and Cultural Sites Along Victoria Harbour: Suggestions for a Vibrant Hong Kong Harbour-Front
    An Evaluation of 48 Leisure and Cultural Sites along Victoria Harbour: Suggestions for a Vibrant Hong Kong Harbour-front An Interactive Qualifying Project Report submitted to the Faculty of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in cooperation with Designing Hong Kong, Ltd., Hong Kong on February 20, 2009 Submitted By: Submitted To: Nathaniel Jannetti Paul Zimmerman, Sponsor Liaison Aubrey Scarborough Project Advisors: Paul Smith Professor Jeanine Skorinko Elizabeth Tuite Professor Stanley Selkow Abstract Even though Hong Kong is well known for its waterfront views, Victoria Harbour uses little of its waterfront to the fullest potential. From past research, we identified four main qualities essential to a beneficial harbour-front: accessibility, connectivity, quality and design/maintenance. After observing forty-eight sites around Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour, we indicated both positive and negative qualities that added or detracted from the site’s vibrancy. We found that a mix of facilities, amenities and activities at water's edge can make Victoria Harbour a more popular destination for both residents and tourists. Our report presents findings and suggestions for the improvement of Hong Kong. ii Acknowledgements We would like to express the deepest appreciation to the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, Harbour-front Enhancement Committee, Hong Kong University, Harbour Business Forum and Designing Hong Kong, LTD. To Paul Cheung, Paul Zimmerman, Roger Nissim, Elanna Tam, David Chaiong, Brenda Fung, Terry Ma, Mee Kam Ng, Andrew Thompson, Maggie Brooke, Stanley Selkow and Jeanine Skorinko, we thank you for your enthusiasm and support. All of you have made the course of this project and our personal time here the experience of a lifetime.

  • Chapter 5 Provision of Aquatic Recreational and Sports Facilities
    Chapter 5 Provision of aquatic recreational and sports facilities Audit conducted a review to examine the provision and management of aquatic recreational and sports facilities by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) and to ascertain whether there were areas for improvement. Gazetted beaches 2. According to paragraph 2.4(a) of the Audit Report, a consultant, who carried out a coastal safety audit on the beaches of Hong Kong in 2000, had advised that the Rocky Bay Beach should be deleted from the list of gazetted beaches because of safety reason and low usage. However, the LCSD considered that de-gazetting beaches was a sensitive issue and decided not to take further action. The Committee asked about the sensitivity of the de-gazetting and whether the LCSD would de-gazette the beach. 3. In response, Ms Anissa WONG Sean-yee, Director of Leisure and Cultural Services, said that: - in deciding to close the Rocky Bay Beach because of its poor water quality, the Administration had considered whether the beach should be de-gazetted. At that time, the Administration was of the view that it should consider the development of the beach water quality. It was also concerned that the relevant District Council and beach goers might consider that they might need to observe the development of the issue for a period of time; and - taking into account the current situation of the water quality, the usage of the beach, as well as other factors, such as the usage rate of the Shek O Beach, the LCSD agreed in principle to Audit’s recommendation that the Rocky Bay Beach be de-gazetted.

Tel: 2982-8585 Website: www.fisherfolks.com.hk Take the kids on a dining adventure at the seafood haven of Sok Kwu Wan. The ferry is fun and quick and drops you immediately in the heart of the village. There are no cars here, or roads for that matter, just a narrow covered sidewalk that runs the length of a lane of restaurants. Kids will enjoy looking at the seafood tanks in front of each eatery that are filled with everything edible that lives in the sea. Live fish, shrimp, crabs, lobsters, mussels, clams, sea cucumbers and other delicacies are on display just waiting for their turn to be chosen (read: Eaten!). These restaurants are all reasonably priced (especially for groups), although there are some items that are very expensive (like spotted garoupa) so be sure to ask the price before you make your selection, especially if on the menu it 0-99 reads “Market Price”.
