Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Hong Kong Police Force is the police department of Hong Kong. Formed in 1844 with a strength of 35, the force evolved from an extremely broad-based role (with responsibilities that included fire-fighting, prisons, customs and immigration), to that of a traditional police service, with mostly civic responsibilities - although the force is still heavily committed to countering illegal immigration and smuggling. As of 28 February 2007, the force has a strength of 27,375, as well as 4,885 civilian employees. The force was granted Royal Charter by Queen Elizabeth II in 1969 and renamed Royal Hong Kong Police until the handover in 1997. The police in Hong Kong operate under local legislations and Hong Kong Basic Law and within the traditional constabulary concept of preserving life and property, preventing and detecting crime and keeping the peace. For times of emergency the force has a paramilitary capability. The Commissioner of Police reports to the Secretary for Security, who is responsible for all disciplined services in Hong Kong. 84 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Hong Kong Economic and Trade Offices are the representations of Hong Kong abroad and in mainland China. There are currently ten HKETOs overseas, and three in mainland China. In addition, the Hong Kong Government has an office in Beijing, the capital of the People's Republic of China. Since citizens of most countries do not need visas to enter Hong Kong, the HKETOs concentrate most of their work on promoting trade and tourism. In countries or territories where no HKETO is present, diplomatic missions of the PRC have the duty to represent Hong Kong's interests. Visa applications at these missions are, nevertheless, sent to and processed by the Immigration Department of Hong Kong. HKETO London serves concurrently as Hong Kong's permanent mission to the International Maritime Organisation, HKETO Brussels to the European Communities, and HKETO Geneva to the World Trade Organisation. 108 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Hong Kong Cantonese is a form of Chinese commonly spoken in Hong Kong. Although Hongkongers largely identify this variant of Chinese with the term 'Cantonese' ), a variety of publications in mainland China describe the variant as Hong Kong speech ). There are slight differences between the pronunciation used in Hong Kong Cantonese and that of the Cantonese spoken in the neighbouring Chinese province of Guangdong, where Standard Cantonese (based on the Guangzhou dialect) is a lingua franca. Over the years, Hong Kong Cantonese has also absorbed foreign vocabularies and developed a large set of Hong Kong-specific vocabularies. These differences from Standard Cantonese are the result of British rule between 1841 and 1997, as well as the closure of the Hong Kong-China border immediately after the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949. 144 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Hong Kong action cinema is the principal source of the Hong Kong film industry's global fame. It combines elements from the action film, as codified by Hollywood, with Chinese storytelling and aesthetic traditions, to create a culturally distinctive form that nevertheless has a wide transcultural appeal. In recent years, the flow has reversed somewhat, with American and European action films being heavily influenced by Hong Kong genre conventions. The first Hong Kong action films favoured the wuxia style, emphasizing mysticism and swordplay, but this trend was politically suppressed in the 1930s and replaced by styles in which films depicted more down-to-earth unarmed kung fu, often featuring folk hero Wong Fei Hung. Post-war cultural upheavals led to a second wave of wuxia films with highly acrobatic violence, followed by the emergence of the grittier kung fu films for which the Shaw Brothers studio became best known. The 1970s saw the rise and sudden death of international superstar Bruce Lee. 148 pp. Englisch.
