Customs, Immigration and Quarantine Arrangements of the Hong Kong Section of the Guangzhou
At a Glance Advantages of High-speed Rail • Speedy: High-speed trains generally operate at a speed between 200 km/h to 350 km/h – well above the top speed of Hong Kong Airport Express Line trains. The fastest travelling time to Guangzhou will be about 48 minutes; Changsha around 3 hours; Xiamen around 4 hours; Shanghai around 8 hours; and Beijing around 9 hours. • Convenient: High-speed rail stations are generally located closer to city centres. Train services are more frequent, more punctual, and less susceptible to delays caused by bad weather. Passengers generally do not need to check in their baggage. • Environmentally friendly: High-speed rail is a green transport mode. Carbon emissions are only about 15% and 25% of those from aircraft and buses respectively. Co-location Arrangement • One-stop clearance procedures: Passengers can complete both Hong Kong and Mainland clearance procedures in one go at the West Kowloon Station (WKS), and then board trains to all cities on the national high-speed rail network. • Other examples exist: There are other overseas examples (such as the arrangement between the United Kingdom and France, or that between the United States and Canada). A co-location arrangement between Hong Kong and the Mainland has been operating smoothly at the Shenzhen Bay Port since 2007. • Mainland personnel in “Mainland Port Area” only: Mainland personnel will carry out duties only inside the “Mainland Port Area” and cannot enter other areas at the WKS to perform their duties. They cannot take any enforcement action in other parts of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR). -
The Guangzhou-Hongkong Strike, 1925-1926
The Guangzhou-Hongkong Strike, 1925-1926 Hongkong Workers in an Anti-Imperialist Movement Robert JamesHorrocks Submitted in accordancewith the requirementsfor the degreeof PhD The University of Leeds Departmentof East Asian Studies October 1994 The candidateconfirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where referencehas been made to the work of others. 11 Abstract In this thesis, I study the Guangzhou-Hongkong strike of 1925-1926. My analysis differs from past studies' suggestions that the strike was a libertarian eruption of mass protest against British imperialism and the Hongkong Government, which, according to these studies, exploited and oppressed Chinese in Guangdong and Hongkong. I argue that a political party, the CCP, led, organised, and nurtured the strike. It centralised political power in its hands and tried to impose its revolutionary visions on those under its control. First, I describe how foreign trade enriched many people outside the state. I go on to describe how Chinese-run institutions governed Hongkong's increasingly settled non-elite Chinese population. I reject ideas that Hongkong's mixed-class unions exploited workers and suggest that revolutionaries failed to transform Hongkong society either before or during the strike. My thesis shows that the strike bureaucracy was an authoritarian power structure; the strike's unprecedented political demands reflected the CCP's revolutionary political platform, which was sometimes incompatible with the interests of Hongkong's unions. I suggestthat the revolutionary elite's goals were not identical to those of the unions it claimed to represent: Hongkong unions preserved their autonomy in the face of revolutionaries' attempts to control Hongkong workers. -

Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Case Study: Guangzhou’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London Community of Metros CoMET The Operator’s Story: Notes from Guangzhou Case Study Interviews February 2017 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide a permanent record for the researchers of what was said by people interviewed for ‘The Operator’s Story’ in Guangzhou, China. These notes are based upon 3 meetings on the 11th March 2016. This document will ultimately form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’ piece. Although the findings have been arranged and structured by Imperial College London, they remain a collation of thoughts and statements from interviewees, and continue to be the opinions of those interviewed, rather than of Imperial College London. Prefacing the notes is a summary of Imperial College’s key findings based on comments made, which will be drawn out further in the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Method This content is a collation in note form of views expressed in the interviews that were conducted for this study. This mini case study does not attempt to provide a comprehensive picture of Guangzhou Metropolitan Corporation (GMC), but rather focuses on specific topics of interest to The Operators’ Story project. The research team thank GMC and its staff for their kind participation in this project. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and GMC.

A Model Layout Region Optimization for Feeder Buses of Rail Transit
Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 43 ( 2012 ) 773 – 780 8th International Conference on Traffic and Transportation Studies Changsha, China, August 1–3, 2012 A Model Layout Region Optimization for Feeder Buses of Rail Transit Yucong Hua, Qi Zhanga, Weiping Wangb,* a School of Civil Engineering and Transportation, South China University of Technology, Guangzhou 510640, China b Dongguan Geographic Information & Urban Planning Research Center, Dongguan 523129, China Abstract This paper analyses the characteristics of urban rail transit and conventional buses and then expands on the necessity of combining them. Based on previous studies, a method of laying region and route of urban rail transit feeder buses is proposed. According to the definition of marginal trip distance which is the boundary of choosing a direct bus or rail-feeder bus (transfer is considered here) to destination, the influence of service level on passenger’s choosing behavior is combined with the generalized trip cost in the indirect gravitation-regions of urban rail transit. On this basis, a model for layout region of feeder buses is constructed and an algorithm is proposed. Finally, a numerical example of the joining routine layout between urban rail transit and conventional buses in Baiyun District, Guangzhou City, China is presented to evaluate the model. The result shows that the model with high accuracy is easy to apply, and is the important basis for laying design of feeder buses. © 20122012 PublishedPublished by by Elsevier Elsevier B.V. Ltd.

The Rise of Qianhai, China
RESEA R CH TECHNICAL PAPER November 2014 THE RISE OF QIANHAI, CHINA: AN OPPORTUNITY OR A CHALLENGE? EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There is no doubt China has the world’s fastest-growing economy and its currency (RMB) has grown significantly over the past years in terms of the volume utilised for trade settlement, finance and investment. According to the latest survey compiled by the Society of Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT), a global provider of secure financial messaging services, RMB payments worldwide have almost tripled in value over the past two years. As of September 2014, the RMB was ranked seventh in the top 20 global payments currencies. Looking forward, due to the increasing usage in Hong Kong, China and other offshore centers, it is predicted to be mature enough to become a reserve currency within the next five years. In order to cater for expanding settlement volumes, and support the future development of new products and services denominated in RMB, Qianhai in Shenzhen will play a unique role in fostering RMB internationalisation by accelerating the circulation of RMB funds across the border. In an effort to explore the opportunities and challenges Qianhai poses, Colliers will comment on the positioning of Qianhai in relation to Hong Kong and other factors, such as the Shanghai Free-Trade Zone (SHFTZ), and the latest development policies, such as the newly announced 15% corporate tax and its subject beneficiaries. Competition is inevitable but characterised by the Central Government supported incentives and policies, Colliers believe the position of Qianhai as a “special zone”, will provide more opportunities rather than challenges in and beyond the Pearl River Delta region. -
