The Chief Executive announced in the 2017 Policy Address that to fully participate in and capitalise on the opportunities brought by the “Belt and Road” Initiative, and to leverage our edge under the “what the country needs, what Hong Kong is good at” policy, the HKSAR Government will step up communication with the Central Authorities to gain a deeper understanding of the policy directions and implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative. The HKSAR Government will also co-operate with enterprises and chambers of commerce to translate policies into business opportunities. 3. Capitalising on the opportunities arising from the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay Area is another focus of work mentioned in the 2017 Policy Address. The HKSAR Government will actively participate in taking forward the development of the Bay Area, so as to create favourable conditions for diversifying our industries, in particular for promoting innovation and technology development. Moreover, the HKSAR Government will seek further facilitation measures for Hong Kong people to study, work, and start up and operate business, live and retire in the Bay Area and thereby facilitating the flow of people, goods, capital and information between Hong Kong and other cities in the Bay Area and making it a quality living circle for Hong Kong people.

  • A Case Study of China Multimedia Mobile Broadcasting (CMMB)
    A Case Study of China Multimedia Mobile Broadcasting (CMMB) A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty Of Drexel University By Dongchen Zhang In partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree Of Master of Science June 2011 ii ©Copyright 2011 Dongchen Zhang. All Rights Reserved iii Abstract A Case Study of China Multimedia Mobile Broadcasting (CMMB) Dongchen Zhang Albert S. Tedesco, Supervisor, BA, MA, MAC Beginning late in the 20th century, mobile broadcasting TV has been launched in many countries all over the world. Though it was expected to be one of the most promising technologies, each country still has its own situation, some are successful, and others are disappointing. Meanwhile, the mobile broadcasting TV is penetrating China rapidly because of the development of its special China Multimedia Mobile Broadcasting standard and network. The worldwide mobile broadcasting TV markets are active due to technology development, business models maturity, and competition is aggressive. The potential size and growth rate of the Chinese mobile TV market warrant examination of the wireless development in and outside of the country. Here, we study specifically this unique growing standard – CMMB, including the technology, the consumer demographics, and the business model. iv Acknowledgment I would like to thank my academic advisor, Albert Tedesco for his invaluable feedback and guidance. Tedesco’s teaching and insights have been a great source of knowledge and ideas for me both inside and outside of this project while at Drexel University. I would also like to thank both Min Wang and Xinquan Fan. Miss Wang has given me a lot of suggestions to improve the grammar and expression of this study.

  • Seeing Chinese Television Industry Through Phoenix Satellite Tv
    DANCING IN THE TENSION BETWEEN THE GLOBAL AND NATIONAL: SEEING CHINESE TELEVISION INDUSTRY THROUGH PHOENIX SATELLITE TV Shuang Xie A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2010 Committee: Dr. Oliver Boyd-Barrett, Advisor Dr. Louisa Ha Dr. Radhika Gajjala Dr. Patricia Kubow Graduate Faculty Representative i ABSTRACT Dr. Oliver Boyd-Barrett, Advisor Phoenix Satellite Television is a TV network broadcasting to the global Chinese-speaking community, primarily to the mainland of China. This study examines Phoenix as a lens by which to consider the overall Chinese television industry in the era of globalization. Utilizing the theory of media imperialism, this study investigates the program content, format, scheduling pattern, and advertisement use of Phoenix, and finds that US-inspired neo- liberalism is expressed in the network’s programming strategies. The study also examines two leading TV networks in China – China Central Television, and Hunan Satellite Television – to compare their programming strategies with those of Phoenix. Although the results of this comparative analysis indicate that the three networks adopt different strategies, they also reveal hidden similarities. That is, all three networks, along with other TV networks at various levels in China, have embraced the ideology of neo-liberalism by emphasizing profit-making as their core goals. The analysis also reveals that the Chinese government still holds a tight control over the media in China. Ironically, this control has helped spread the very neo-liberalism the Chinese government’s control attempts to hinder. The implication of this study to the thesis of Media Imperialisms is that the findings suggest that the central question of imperialism and its relationship to media has to do with the ways in which media content and media format relate to, support or fail to support, the trajectory of imperialism in any of its manifestations.

  • Media and Communications
    Chapter 17 Media and Communications Hong Kong’s lively media and world-class telecommunications provide ready access to a wealth of information and entertainment. Some 694 daily newspapers and periodicals are published in Hong Kong, more than 93 per cent of households are broadband service subscribers and the mobile subscriber penetration rate is about 234 per cent. Hong Kong has one of the most successful telecommunications markets in the world. Fully liberalised and highly competitive, the market provides a wide range of innovative and advanced telecommunications services to consumers and business users at affordable prices. The city also has a long history of film production and a vibrant broadcasting industry offering a great variety of services. The Mass Media Hong Kong’s mass media at the end of 2016 included 54 daily newspapers (including electronic newspapers), 640 periodicals, three domestic free-television programme service licensees, three domestic pay-TV programme service licensees, 17 non-domestic TV programme service licensees, one government-funded public service broadcaster and two sound broadcasting licensees. The availability of the latest telecommunications technology and keen interest in Hong Kong’s affairs have attracted many international news agencies, newspapers with international readership and international broadcasters to establish regional headquarters or representative offices here. The production of regional publications in Hong Kong underlines its importance as a financial, industrial, trading and communications centre. Registered Hong Kong-based press at the year end included 28 Chinese-language dailies, 11 English-language dailies, 10 bilingual dailies and five in Japanese. One of the English dailies publishes a daily Braille edition in conjunction with the Hong Kong Society for the Blind.
