In Hong Kong Public and Squatter Housing: Geopolitics and Informality, 1963–1985, Alan Smart and Fung Chi Keung Charles trace two decades of development of squatting in Hong Kong. The authors reconstruct the government policy on squatting through both ethnographic and archival research. The book sheds new light on the consequences of various attempts to control encroachment on scarce urban space. It argues that intersecting policy agendas resulted in decisions that were often not desired, but which emerged as practical solutions from prior failures. The authors address the challenges of explaining confidential policy decisions and offer new approaches applicable in other contexts. Overall, Smart and Fung make an important contribution to the understanding of how public housing and squatting interacted in influential ways that have been poorly understood and offer new perspectives on the challenges of urban governance and housing problems.

內容簡介 Wisdom That Transforms Lives Twenty-five centuries ago, a man who had once lived in royal luxury walked barefoot across the dusty plains of India, sharing insights that would forever change human history. The Buddha—“the Awakened One”—dedicated forty-nine years of his life to illuminating the path beyond suffering for all who would listen. This first volume presents 36 stories from the Buddha’s life and the lives of his disciples, each revealing the Buddha’s remarkable ability to meet people where they were and guide them toward realization. Readers will discover the Buddha’s insights on the importance of kindness, right speech, right actions, and community living that remain profoundly relevant to our lives today. Each story concludes with “Words of Wisdom” that connect ancient guidance to contemporary challenges. Throughout the collection, we see how the Buddha’s gentle yet powerful approach led others to profound insights, inspiring many to become his disciples and

中華民國外交部網站在「臺灣的國際法地位」一文中指出，1943年12月1日，中、美、英三國發表《開羅宣言》（Cairo Declaration），具體要求戰後日本「須將竊自中國的東北四省、臺灣與澎湖歸還中華民國」。1945年7月26日，中、美、英三國領袖發布《波茲坦公告》（Potsdam Proclamation），其第8條重申「《開羅宣言》之條件必須貫徹實施」。1945年8月14日，日本接受《波茲坦公告》，宣布無條件投降，並於同年9月2日在美國密蘇里軍艦上簽署《日本降伏文書》（Japanese Instrument of Surrender）。該文書第1條中載明「茲接受美、中、英、蘇四國政府領袖於1945年7月26日於波茲坦所發表及所列舉之條款。換言之，《波茲坦公告》第8條有關《開羅宣言》之條件必須貫徹實施，係日本於《降伏文書》中所承諾之事項，日本當然必須履行，將東北四省、臺灣、澎湖歸還中華民國。 時間回到1943年11月，中華民國全體軍民，已經在戰火中奮鬥了六年餘。此時收到盟軍的訊息，將在遙遠的埃及開羅舉行中、美、英三國領袖會議，這是太平洋戰爭爆發、中國戰區成立、躍身「四強」之後，首次的世界級外交場合。儘管日軍的攻勢並沒有停歇，常德會戰開打，國軍第七十四軍第五十七師八千餘官兵，在師長余程萬的帶領下死守湖南常德，力拼一場東方的史達林格勒之役。 國民政府主席蔣中正與夫人宋美齡女士在國內戰雲密布之際，率領中國代表團，一行共十八人，飛越駝峰航線，途經印度，輾轉前往開羅。會議於11月22日召開，26日落幕，12月1日公報發布，也就是我們現在所稱的《開羅宣言》。 五天的密集討論，大小會談，還包括歡迎宴會與拜訪等等行程，究竟三國代表團之間有什麼樣的互動？就政治、軍事、經濟問題商談了什麼？公報的定案版本又是如何產生的？除了侍從室祕書人員幫蔣中正留下的紀錄以外，本書蒐集了代表團十六位團員中十一位的返國報告，見證了開羅會議舉行的過程。 值得特別提出的是，蔣中正的英文並不好，因此在外交場合中，身體微恙的宋美齡女士就扮演了極為重要的角色，除了肩任部分的翻譯工作之外，與羅斯福、邱吉爾兩位領袖的斡旋，更是辛勞備極。 在開羅會議結束，代表團一行返回重慶，蔣中正掛念心中的，便是常德會戰的戰情。因為國軍的勝敗，是國力的象徵，影響及於這場三國領袖會議的談判籌碼與發言空間。在劃時代

The Genera of Orchidaceae in Hong Kong is a handy reference for both amateurs and professional botanists in Asia who wish to enter the field of modern orchidology. Orchid appreciation is an art deeply rooted in Asian cultures. But in 1977, when this book was first published, orchidology as a science was new to people there. The technical vocabulary was unfamiliar and the subject matter difficult to understand.

The book may also be used as a self-help guide for naturalists and gardeners in Hong Kong who wish to identify an orchid new to them. In Chapter II, keys, descriptions, and illustrations are given to allow the reader to look up and gain information about individual orchid species. Chapter III provides an analysis of the composition and an interpretation of the phytogeographic significance of

The idea of a right to privacy, which arose in reaction to the rapid rise of newspapers, instant photography and the “paparazzi” of the 19th century, has evolved into a constitutional right in much of the developed world. It is enshrined in Hong Kong through Articles 28, 29, 30 and 39 of the Basic Law. Hong Kong stands proud as the first jurisdiction in Asia to enact legislation to safeguard personal data in the form of the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance, Cap 486 (“the Ordinance”) which came into force in 1996. At its centre are the six Data Protection Principles based on the 1980 OECD Guidelines. The office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data was created under this legislation to provide oversight and ensure compliance. The Octopus scandal in mid-2010 eventually led to substantial changes being made to the Ordinance that were enacted in 2012 and 2013, the main amendments being the Direct Marketing provisions and the provision of legal assistance and representation to aggr
