Shenzhen Study Tour & Investment Summit SHENZHEN STUDY TOUR & INVESTMENT SUMMIT Friday – Saturday, 3–4 December, 2010 In conjunction with ASIA TRADER & INVESTOR CONVENTION 2010 (4–6 December, 2010) Shenzhen Study Tour and Investment Summit, 3-4 December, 2010 Co-organizers: Shenzhen Municipality Government and NextVIEW Group BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY TOUR A Collaboration between Shenzhen Municipality Government and NextVIEW Group (Gain deeper knowledge of Shenzhen, China) This study tour is coordinated with the local Shenzhen government support to view the latest mega-development in Shenzhen that would be of interest to business people and visitors alike. Participants will get an orientation of Shenzhen and gain a clear perspective of the importance of Shenzhen in the masterplan of the centrally planned economy of China. The Study Tour and Investment Summit (“The TOUR”) is from Friday-Saturday, 3-4 December, 2010. Held in conjunction with Shenzhen’s Mega Investor event, Asia Trader and Investor Convention @ Futian, Shenzhen, the TOUR offers first-hand exposure to the current growth climate in Shenzhen and the opportunity to meet key industry players as well as to gain an insight into the vibrant economic sectors in Shenzhen. Shenzhen today is the leading manufacturing hub of China and the masterplan from the Central government which was announced on 3 rd September, 2010 is to keep Shenzhen growing for the next 30 years with the building of the “Manhattan” of China at Qianhai, Shenzhen. Bloomberg News Shenzhen to Invest 40 Billion Yuan in Qianhai September 02 , 2010, 8:52 PM EDT By Bloomberg News Sept. 3 (Bloomberg) -- The southern Chinese city of Shenzhen plans to invest 40 billion yuan ($5.88 billion) in its Qianhai area to make it the “ Manhattan ” of the Pearl River Delta, the Securities Times reported today, citing the local government. The investment in the 15 square kilometer area of the city will be made over the next three years, the Shenzhen-based newspaper reported. The government is looking at the possibility of offering a low tax regime similar to Hong Kong’s and of allowing free convertibility of the yuan in the area, according to the report. Does this press release catch your eye? Manhattan of the Pearl River? Low Tax Regime? Free Convertibility of the Yuan? With its first CBD successfully launched in Futian, Qianhai is planned to be the second CBD with land size 40% of Singapore. It will surely attract even more foreign investors to Shenzhen where currently 16 million people reside since it was made a special zone city by Deng Xiao Ping 30 years ago. Shenzhen Study Tour and Investment Summit, 3-4 December, 2010 Page 2 of 6 Co-organizers: Shenzhen Municipality Government and NextVIEW Group The recent announcement by the Central government to lower corporate income tax will also help to create a favourable investment environment that provides more incentives for investment opportunities to take root. Shenzhen currently has some of the largest China companies which mean they either have corporate or personal interests to invest. This group serves as good targets for foreign companies to focus on to conduct business with. As the population grows more affluent and wealthier, they are looking for investment opportunities as well as means to grow their wealth either using tools or business or even purchasing properties overseas for their next generation. Therefore, ATIC 2010 @ Shenzhen will bring together a group of international participants consisting of fund managers, private equity investors, high net worth investors, directors of securities brokerage firms as well as senior executives of global stock exchanges to Shenzhen for an in-depth look at the Shenzhen capital market, as well as to network with Shenzhen government officials, fund managers, securities brokerage firms and listed company CEO’s and companies looking to expand overseas, which are invited by the Shenzhen organisers. In addition, with a focused contingent from Malaysia to support on both Property and IT capabilities from Malaysia, the bridge between Shenzhen and Malaysia can be solidly strengthened with this most auspicious event. This platform provides a timely and strategic platform to convene investors to discuss strategies, leverage opportunities and explore potential cross-borders business partnerships. WHO SHOULD ATTEND? This is a strategic, informative and concise program designed for senior representatives or professionals with Financial Services Organizations such as Fund Management Houses, Securities Brokerage Firms, Securities Exchanges and other finance-related institutions. The group will also include high net worth Investors as well as invited Shenzhen and international VIP guests of the Shenzhen Municipality Government (this year dedicated efforts to invite all throughout China from Beijing to Shanghai) and the NextVIEW Group (Asean, Hong Kong & East Asia). In order to ensure maximum benefit for each delegate, participation is limited to a maximum of 100 international delegates from Asean, Hong Kong, Japan, China, Korea, and others. Participation is on a first-come-first-serve basis and potential delegates are encouraged to submit an early booking in order to avoid disappointment.

  • Crossing Borders: Creating an American Law Clinic in China
    \\jciprod01\productn\N\NYC\19-1\NYC108.txt unknown Seq: 1 23-OCT-12 13:50 CROSSING BORDERS: CREATING AN AMERICAN LAW CLINIC IN CHINA CECILY E. BASKIR* In the last twelve years, over eighty Chinese law schools have incorporated clinical legal education into their course offerings. Of these, the Center for Cross-Border Advocacy at the Peking University School of Transnational Law was the first live-client clinical legal ed- ucation program to provide transnational – not domestic – legal rep- resentation. Under the supervision of an American clinical law professor licensed to practice law in the United States, Chinese law students in the Center represented immigrants in the United States at the administrative appeals stage of their deportation proceedings. In the complementary seminar, the students studied U.S. immigration law and appellate procedure, practiced advanced legal writing and oral advocacy, and explored issues of professional responsibility and cross-cultural lawyering. This article examines the creation of the Center for Cross-Border Advocacy and how the Center fit into the Chinese context of clinical legal education. It analyzes the Center’s unique benefits for Chinese students, including providing direct expo- sure to different norms of legal practice, an opportunity to develop stronger cross-cultural lawyering skills, and a relatively safe environ- ment for engaging in critical thinking about rule of law. The article explores in particular how representing non-Chinese immigrants in U.S. tribunals created a three-dimensional cultural exchange in the clinic while minimizing potential political backlash. It cautions, how- ever, that cross-border clinics risk creating an appearance of legal im- perialism and having only a limited impact on social justice issues within China.

  • Case 6: Shenzhen
    Case 6: Shenzhen International Low Carbon City (ILCC) Abstract Shenzhen is taking the lead in demonstrating innovation in sustainable urban transformation and future-orientated city planning through its ambitious International Low Carbon City (ILCC). This initiative aims to transform the previously manufacturing-based and carbon-intensive economy and built environment of Pingdi into a model of low-carbon, post-industrial urban revitalisation. ILCC maintains a focus on preserving and refurbishing existing buildings to the latest environmental standards whilst also pursuing new construction of cutting-edge, low-carbon buildings and urban infrastructure. As such, this initiative marks a significant shift from large-scale demolition and new construction centred modes of urban development. Also involving extensive collaborations with the Dutch government and other international partners, futuristic green buildings and economic transformation is pursued whilst taking the utmost care to preserve the natural environment and cultural identity of the area.

Programme context Citywide reduction target(s) To meet China’s new 13th five-year working programme to control GHG emissions, by the year 2020, the City of Shenzhen aims to reduce its CO2 emissions by 10% relative to every RMB 10,000 of GDP (1 RMB = US $0.151 as of 20 August, 2016) compared to 2015 levels, and at least 45% compared to 2005 levels. As a specific goal for the built environment, also by 2020, the city aims to ensure that 100% of all new buildings comply with national green building standards. Built environment context and programme background Designated as China’s first Special Economic Zone (SEZ)1 in 1980, the southern city of Shenzhen, in Guangdong province, has since experienced skyrocketing economic growth.
