The study consists of three sections: a general description of the development of Chinese cinema before 1949; an overview of the movie industries in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China after the civil war; and an intensive study of the recent changes, interactions, and connections among these industries. In the third section, three models are proposed to explain the changing practices in movie production in these three areas. Obstacles preventing further cooperation and the significance of the reconstruction and integration of Chinese cinema are discussed.</p>[Chinese New Year, 1964]2022-09-12T12:33:36-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1997119/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1997119/"><img alt="[Chinese New Year, 1964]" title="[Chinese New Year, 1964]" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1997119/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Sound recording of Margaret Parx Hays and friends addressing Hays' mother on and before Chinese New Year in 1964.</p>Coat ensemble2021-01-28T14:29:36-06:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1753697/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1753697/"><img alt="Coat ensemble" title="Coat ensemble" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1753697/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Dress ensemble of brown vinyl.

Historical research was utilized in this study. This study was approached as follows: First, the economic growth of the countries under study was examined. Then, the countries' higher education systems were compared and contrasted. The result is at least one possible higher education system model that can be used by any country to improve the future performance of its higher education system. The study concluded that the models of higher education used by Taiwan, Singapore, and Hong Kong from 1945 to 1980 were not identical. However, they came to similar conclusions in terms of economic development. In this case, an emerging industrial country like the social and economic condition of Taiwan, Singapore, and Hong Kong would find that adoption of those higher education models might be appropriate. For instance, an emerging country with a social and economic system like Taiwan would find Taiwan's higher education model appropriate for adoption in that country. On the other hand, if an emerging industrial nation has social and economic criteria dissimilar to those of Taiwan, Singapore, and Hong Kong, a proposed single model of higher education would be appropriate, with an adjustment to suit the national resources, cultural background, and structure of trades and the labor force of that country.</p>Day dress2024-03-09T07:17:39-06:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc2292970/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc2292970/"><img alt="Day dress" title="Day dress" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc2292970/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>A) Dress of green silk printed with abstract purple and red flowers.

The study first traces the seminary's theological and missiological roots and its history from 1913 to 1948, from its founding in Hubei Province, China to its move to Hong Kong because of civil war. Next, it describes major events of the early years in Hong Kong and the factors which contributed to an institutional crisis in the late 1960's. The study then analyzes the modern development of the institution, specifically the years 1971 to 1993. During this period several regional church groups joined together to create a collaborative educational effort through LTS, the school gained regional accreditation, expanded the ranks of its Chinese faculty, developed Asian financial support, and constructed a new campus. The modern development of the institution cannot be understood apart from a comprehension of the twenty-two year administration of Andrew Hsiao, the first Chinese president of the school. A chapter is therefore included on Andrew Hsiao's personal and academic background, the distinctives of his administration, and the strengths and weaknesses of his presidency. A current profile of the school is provided including its purposes, theology, organizational structure, faculty, student body, programs, and facilities. Finally, the future of the school is discussed in light of the reversion of Hong Kong to the sovereignty of China in July 1997. This portion of the study contains an analysis of CCP religious policy, the structures which enforce religious policy in China, the current relationship between the China Christian Council and LTS, and the seminary's plans after the reversion of Hong Kong to China.</p>History of Counseling Services in Hong Kong2014-08-22T18:00:56-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc331420/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc331420/"><img alt="History of Counseling Services in Hong Kong" title="History of Counseling Services in Hong Kong" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc331420/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>The purpose of this study was to trace the development of the counseling movement in Hong Kong from its beginning to the present and to examine future directions confronting those who work in the counseling field in Hong Kong.
Originating from social unrest in 1966 and 1967, the counseling movement began as an attempt to meet the society's developmental needs of self-expression and direction. Although not a formal program, the first known counseling service in Hong Kong was offered by Ben Fong in 1967 at the Yang Memorial Social Service Center. In 1969 the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups established the first formal counseling service in Hong Kong.
Institutions of higher education and foreigners played a major role in the development of early counseling services in Hong Kong. In 197 0, Peter Whyte, an Australian, organized a counseling service at the University Hong Kong. In 1971, Ken Locke, an American, established a counseling service at the Hong Kong Baptist College. Counseling services grew rapidly in the early 1970s, and a 1975 survey identified fifty-five agencies which reported providing counseling services.
In the mid-1970s, helping professionals were struggling with the issue of "What is counseling?" A significant developmental step was the establishment of a master's degree program in counseling at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 1977. The first professional counseling organization, the Association of Psychological and Educational Counselors of Asia-Hong Kong Branch, was organized in 1979 and the first counseling journal was published in 1980. In 1984, the Education Department of the Hong Kong Government established guidance services in secondary schools.
The challenge for the counselors of Hong Kong in the 1990s relates to two foreseeable changes in the Hong Kong community, the Chinese recovery of the sovereignty of Hong Kong in 1997 and the aging of the population.</p>Hong Kong 2005: Changes in Leadership and Issues for Congress2005-11-02T15:47:51-06:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metacrs7696/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metacrs7696/"><img alt="Hong Kong 2005: Changes in Leadership and Issues for Congress" title="Hong Kong 2005: Changes in Leadership and Issues for Congress" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metacrs7696/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) has recently
recovered from an economic downturn and the SARS virus outbreak of 2002-2003
which crippled trade and tourism. There has also been a major change in the top
government personnel, with the former Chief Executive, Tung Chee-Hwa, being
replaced by Donald Tsang as the new Chief Executive of Hong Kong. The next major
the issue to be addressed in Hong Kong is the pace of further democratization and the
the extent to which the next elections for the Legislative Counsel will be based on direct
elections of all seats or a larger portion thereof.</p>Hong Kong After Its Return to China: Implications for US Interests2005-06-12T01:29:04-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metacrs765/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metacrs765/"><img alt="Hong Kong After Its Return to China: Implications for US Interests" title="Hong Kong After Its Return to China: Implications for US Interests" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metacrs765/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Hong Kong's return to China on July 1, 1997, went surprisingly smoothly. In the ensuing months, policy analysts are trying to assess how the territory will fare in the longer run under Chinese rule. The answer is important to U.S. interests because of the enormous U.S. economic presence in Hong Kong; because any adverse developments in Hong Kong are likely to affect U.S.-China relations; and because China's promise to give Hong Kong a high degree of autonomy under the "one-China, two-systems" policy has major implications for Taiwan. But given the political situation, the American ability to affect the course of events in Hong Kong seems marginal unless the U.S. decides to confront Beijing more directly. Developments in U.S.-China relations in recent years suggest Washington might be hesitant to do so.</p>[Hong Kong and Bangkok, June 1964]2022-09-12T12:33:41-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1997121/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1997121/"><img alt="[Hong Kong and Bangkok, June 1964]" title="[Hong Kong and Bangkok, June 1964]" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1997121/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Sound recording of Margaret Parx Hays and friends addressing Hays' mother while in Hong Kong, China and Bangkok, Thailand in June of 1964.</p>Hong Kong floating village, new territories2015-07-06T08:03:19-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673585/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673585/"><img alt="Hong Kong floating village, new territories" title="Hong Kong floating village, new territories" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673585/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Photograph of a floating village with local people in the Tai Po region of the New Territories in Hong Kong in China.</p>Hong Kong floating village, new territories2015-07-06T08:03:19-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673686/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673686/"><img alt="Hong Kong floating village, new territories" title="Hong Kong floating village, new territories" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673686/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Photograph of a floating village in the Tai Po region of the New Territories in Hong Kong in China.</p>Hong Kong housing - shacks by Tiger Balm2015-07-06T08:03:19-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673607/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673607/"><img alt="Hong Kong housing - shacks by Tiger Balm" title="Hong Kong housing - shacks by Tiger Balm" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673607/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Photograph of houses and shacks built on the rocks in Hong Kong.</p>Hong Kong Island entrance from Stonecutter's Island2015-07-06T08:03:19-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673451/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673451/"><img alt="Hong Kong Island entrance from Stonecutter's Island" title="Hong Kong Island entrance from Stonecutter's Island" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673451/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Photograph of the harbor and entrance to Hong Kong from Stonecutter's Island in China.</p>Hong Kong: Recent Developments and U.S. Relations2018-11-01T07:42:02-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1311942/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1311942/"><img alt="Hong Kong: Recent Developments and U.S. Relations" title="Hong Kong: Recent Developments and U.S. Relations" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1311942/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>This report discusses the government of Hong Kong and their relationship with the United States.</p>Hong Kong Reservoir2015-07-06T08:03:19-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673590/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673590/"><img alt="Hong Kong Reservoir" title="Hong Kong Reservoir" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc673590/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Photograph of a reservoir with landscape in Hong Kong, China.</p>Hong Kong's Legislative Council Votes Down Chief Executive Election Reform2015-08-27T16:20:31-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc700832/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc700832/"><img alt="Hong Kong's Legislative Council Votes Down Chief Executive Election Reform" title="Hong Kong's Legislative Council Votes Down Chief Executive Election Reform" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc700832/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>This report briefly discusses Hong Kong's Legislative Council (Legco), and the recent defeat of a proposal to reform the city's Chief Executive (CE) selection method.</p>
