Dr. Edmund Goh Edith Cowan University, Australia Email: [email protected]
e-Review of Tourism Research (eRTR), Vol. 18, 1, 2020 http://ertr.tamu.edu Dr. Edmund Goh Edith Cowan University, Australia Email: [email protected] Emerging Scholar Profile My name is Dr Edmund Goh. This is my personal reflection as an emerging scholar. Currently, I am a Senior Lecturer in Hospitality and Tourism Management, School of Business and Law, Edith Cowan University, Australia. I obtained my Master by Research (Goh, 2007) from the University of Wollongong in 2007 under the principal supervision of Professor Sara Dolnicar and PhD (Goh, 2015a) from the University of Queensland, Australia in 2015 under the principal supervision of Professor Brent Ritchie. I am immensely grateful to both supervisors who have been great role models and mentors in helping shape my research career as an emerging scholar. Both mentors have always set the bar high and only expect the best and nothing less. This basic principle has anchored into my research career to strive for research excellence through impactful quality research. The decision to embark on a PhD journey was one of the greatest things that happened in my life. It can be best described as a bittersweet vicarious feeling of being overly ambitious of trying to solve all world problems in 80,000 words. At the beginning, I was not fully aware of the intensity and discovery of knowledge involved in gaining such an understanding would entail. As the PhD journey progressed, little did I realised how much I didn’t know, and the inflated confidence started to create self-doubt. This is where good supervision and critical reflections are essential. -

Before starting, I want to say I was really fortunate to be able to work with Philip on this book. [Jeff Apter holds up a coffee table book] [JEFF APTER] And it was one of the more interesting exercises, wasn't it? Because we were given a directive to come up with... Was it 200 photos? ..for this book. [PHILIP MORRIS] That's right. [JEFF APTER] And Philip's archive is so fantastic and so rich, that I think we got it down to, what, 600? [PHILIP MORRIS] Yeah. [Audience laughs] [JEFF APTER] Was it 600 to start with? It was something like that. And it's staggering, really. It's a really great document of Australian rock history at a really interesting turning point. So to get it down to this... It's begging for a second edition, by the way. There's so many great photos. So it was a real honour to be able to... to do that. It was a lot of fun. [PHILIP MORRIS] Yeah, it was. [JEFF APTER] We actually had built into our contract... Our agreement was an understanding that we would never work in a boring situation. -

University of Wollongong (UOW) Welcomes the Opportunity to Provide Input in Response to the Senate Select Committee Inquiry Into Jobs for the Future in Regional Areas
Submission: Jobs for the Future in Regional Areas Senate Select Committee September 2019 INTRODUCTION The University of Wollongong (UOW) welcomes the opportunity to provide input in response to the Senate Select Committee Inquiry into Jobs for the Future in Regional Areas. UOW is supportive of Government policy and programs which support, encourage and help to generate regional development, innovation and, new employment opportunities. UOW actively supports the economic development and sustainability of regions across NSW through the provision of its Wollongong and regional campuses, and the delivery of initiatives such as the Innovation Campus (iC), iAccelerate, innovative manufacturing facilities, and the development of its Health and Wellbeing Precinct. UOW is deeply embedded in the Illawarra community and is committed to helping grow an innovative region, transitioning the Illawarra from conventional manufacturing to more advanced technology and creating a high- tech industry cluster. Wollongong’s transformation is an excellent case study of how universities can work with local councils and other stakeholders across their region to create new jobs and industries, modernise economies and accelerate smart-city transformation. This Submission broadly addresses key elements of the Committee Terms of Reference by demonstrating the important role UOW is playing transforming the Illawarra and other regional areas in which it operates, in the generation and application of new ideas and, its capacity to educate people to meet the needs of the future workforce. In doing so, it seeks to demonstrate the role universities such as UOW can play in implementing government policy initiatives which encourage innovation and support the transition of regions into new industries and areas of employment opportunities. -
Message from the Dean
Issue 4 August to October - 2012 Message from the Dean As we all know China is a power house of the world’s economy and Australia’s leading trading partner. Even regular visitors to China are continually astounded at the rate and quality of China’s advancement. It seems that every few months China’s landscape visibly changes as it improves the living standards of its vast population by developing and implementing technologies and infrastructure to provide energy, water, housing, health, transport and other services that many other countries take for granted, but which in China have only recently become practically available on a large scale. The energy, creativity and dynamism required to implement such massive change is immense, but Chinese Universities, Industries and Central and Provincial Governments are determinedly rising to these challenges. Welcome to the Engineering Comprehending the scale of China’s achievements and ambitions is not an easy matter. China has to build about 4 United States of America’s to offer its newsletter for 2012 population a similar standard of living as in USA.

WEA’S ROOTS DATE BACK TO THE FOUNDING OF WARNER BROS. RECORDS IN 1958 AS A DIVISION OF WARNER BROS. PICTURES. IN 1963, WARNER BROS. RECORDS PURCHASED FRANK SINATRA’S REPRISE RECORDS. AFTER WARNER BROS. WAS SOLD TO SEVEN ARTS PRODUCTIONS IN 1967 (FORMING WARNER BROS.-SEVEN ARTS), IT PURCHASED ATLANTIC RECORDS AS WELL AS ITS SUBSIDIARY ATCO RECORDS. IN 1969, THE WARNER BROS.-SEVEN ARTS COMPANY WAS SOLD TO THE KINNEY NATIONAL COMPANY. KINNEY MUSIC INTERNATIONAL (LATER CHANGING ITS NAME TO WARNER COMMUNICATIONS) COMBINED THE OPERATIONS OF ALL OF ITS RECORD LABELS, AND KINNEY CEO STEVE ROSS LED THE GROUP THROUGH ITS MOST SUCCESSFUL PERIOD, UNTIL HIS DEATH IN 1994. IN 1969, ELEKTRA RECORDS BOSS JAC HOLZMAN APPROACHED ATLANTIC'S JERRY WEXLER TO SET UP A JOINT DISTRIBUTION NETWORK FOR WARNER, ELEKTRA, AND ATLANTIC. ATLANTIC RECORDS ALSO AGREED TO ASSIST WARNER BROS. IN ESTABLISHING OVERSEAS DIVISIONS, BUT RIVALRY WAS STILL A FACTOR —WHEN WARNER EXECUTIVE PHIL ROSE ARRIVED IN AUSTRALIA TO BEGIN SETTING UP AN AUSTRALIAN SUBSIDIARY, HE DISCOVERED THAT ONLY ONE WEEK EARLIER ATLANTIC HAD SIGNED A NEW FOUR-YEAR DISTRIBUTION DEAL WITH FESTIVAL RECORDS. IN MARCH 1972, KINNEY MUSIC INTERNATIONAL WAS RENAMED WEA MUSIC INTERNATIONAL. DURING THE 1970S, THE WARNER GROUP BUILT UP A COMMANDING POSITION IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY. IN 1970, IT BOUGHT ELEKTRA (FOUNDED BY HOLZMAN IN 1950) FOR $10 MILLION, ALONG WITH THE BUDGET CLASSICAL MUSIC LABEL NONESUCH RECORDS. -
