City University of Macau/Asia International Open University/ University of East Asia/ East Asia Open College 40Th Anniversary H-Announce City University of Macau/Asia International Open University/ University of East Asia/ East Asia Open College 40th Anniversary Announcement published by Priscilla Roberts on Monday, September 14, 2020 Type: Call for Volunteers Date: March 28, 2021 Location: China On March 28, 2021, City University of Macau will celebrate the 40th anniversary of its founding, in the original building of the University of East Asia, the first university in Macau whose founders were Chinese. City University of Macau has had a fairly complicated history. From 1981 to 1991, it was known as the University of East Asia. In Hong Kong, it also operated as the East Asia Open College. In 1991-2, the University of East Asia split into three. What had previously been the East Asia Open College and the Research College became the private Asia International Open University, with close ties to the Universidade Aberta of Portugal. (The other two successor institutions were Macau-based public universities, the current University of Macau and Macao Polytechnic Institute.) In 2010, the Asia International Open University became the City University of Macau, which moved in 2015 to the original campus of the University of East Asia. As we prepare to celebrate the 40th anniversary, we wish to make these celebrations inclusive and to involve as many stakeholders as possible. City University of Macau will welcome reminiscences, photographs, or other relevant materials of any kind from former teachers, students, alumni, or others who were in some way associated with it, in one (or indeed more) of its various incarnations, as the University of East Asia and East Asia Open College, Asia International Open University, or City University of Macau. Other relevant materials, e.g., photographs, reminiscences, from interested bystanders who were in Macau at that time are also most welcome. Should any such materials be considered confidential, the insights will be appreciated, but their confidential status will be respected. We will also be happy to conduct online interviews. I can be contacted at [email protected] or [email protected].

  • Culture and Sport
    CULTURE AND SPORT Culture and Sport Culture and Sport Eastern and western cultures have co-existed in Macao for over 400 years. A wide variety of cultural traditions, languages, values, religious beliefs, and customs have all existed side by side and influenced one another. Out of this melting pot, a regional culture unique to Macao has gradually developed into its present richness. Macao’s culture is thus a diverse mixture, with traditional Chinese culture as its heart, and it has assimilated Western, particularly Portuguese, cultural influences in perfect harmony. Following its policy of promoting Chinese culture while preserving the unique pluralistic cultural heritage of Macao, the Government has hosted various cultural and artistic activities invited art troupes from mainland China and overseas, as well as Macao, to perform. These have created opportunities for audiences to learn more about the history, society, and culture of different regions, as well as enhancing cultural exchange and the quality of cultural life of Macao’s residents. Cultural Affairs Bureau The Cultural Affairs Bureau is a Government department that sets out the Government’s key objectives in cultural matters. The bureau is responsible for protecting cultural heritage, giving guidance on aesthetic appreciation, supporting community organisations, nurturing talent in arts and culture, developing local cultural industries, as well as organising cultural entertainment programmes, such as concerts, exhibitions, seminars, music classes, dance, drama courses, “Parade through Macao, Latin City”, Macao International Music Festival, Macao Arts Festival, China Cultural Heritage Day, Macao Youth Music Competition and Macao Annual Visual Arts Exhibition. It also provides subsidies for different cultural and art programmes as well as scholarships to support the publication of research and advanced studies about arts.

This paper develops an optimization model to examine the accessibility from single family homes to major urban facilities for services or amenities using geographical information systems. The home-based accessibility to facilities is based upon the point to point direct distance from sampled homes to sampled facilities. Descriptive statistics about the accessibility, such as min/max, mean/median, and standard deviation/variance were computed. Variations of accessibility for a range of categories by home price and year built were also examined. Multivariate linear regression models examining the housing value with respect to home-facility
