This volume brings together, for the first time, a collection of essays on public sector reform in Hong Kong. Public sector reform has come rather belatedly to Hong Kong, being launched officially since 1989. The underlying themes as well as key initiatives of the reform package are undoubtedly in line with similar reform trends prevailing in Western Europe, North America and the Australasia dating from the rise of privatization policies in governments in these places since the late 1970s. In Hong Kong, however, little discussion has taken place in the community over the government's guide public sector reform programme. Even within the civil service, interest in the programme has been limited to those senior officers tasked with implementing the reform measures. Little is actually written on the subject which should have important implications for the future shape of public administration in Hong Kong. Being the first volume of its kind in the local print, this book tries to capture the basic objectives and features of public sector reform as well as raise some fundamental issues and questions for further debate. The chapters are so arranged as to provide multi-dimensional perspectives from local academics, government officials as well as overseas experiences. This book should be of interest to general readers and of particular use to students of government and public administration as well as practitioners in the field.

This book describes and analyses the role of the public sector in the often-charged political atmosphere of post-1997 Hong Kong. In this second edition, Ian Scott explores public sector accountability in terms of Hong Kong’s constitutional framework and the structure, functions, and personnel policies of its civil service system. He examines critical issues facing the administration of the public sector and the formulation and implementation of public policy with particular attention to the political challenges confronting the Hong Kong government over the past decade. A concluding chapter assesses how contested values in a changing political environment have affected the public sector in recent years. This edition has been fully updated to incorporate the latest statistics and research, including Scott’s work in such areas as integrity management, corruption prevention, and policing. This book is an essential resource for scholars and students of public administration and public policy in Hong Kong and more broadly for those who are interested in how a particular jurisdiction deals with common administrative problems such as centralisation, the role of statutory bodies, corruption prevention, and the redress of citizens’ grievances. ‘Professor Ian Scott’s book, The Public Sector in Hong Kong, now in a second much-expanded and up-to-date edition, offers a thorough and rigorous analysis of contemporary governance in Hong Kong, focusing on all the key stakeholders. The book is essential reading for government officials, politicians, journalists, academics, students, and the general public.’ —John P. Burns, The University of Hong Kong ‘The second edition not only updates the development in the public sector of Hong Kong, but also provides an important perspective to help readers understand the contexts that navigate its latest developments. This edition, along with Ian Scott’s earlier work, will be judged by many in the field to be among the best books on Hong Kong politics.’ —Hon S. Chan, City University of Hong Kong

The series Public Administration in Asia provides a periodically updatable resource that examines the public administrations of Asian countries looking at all the factors involved in the formulation of public policies. The Hong Kong civil service has experienced considerable change since the retrocession to China in 1997. The new political order has attempted to exert more control over the public sector, to introduce new approaches to formulating and implementing policy, and to re-define the relationships between the government and the public. In this book, the author describes the system of public administration in this changed political context, compares the way in which it now operates with that of its colonial predecessor, and analyzes the difficulties which the new regime and the public sector has faced in meeting the challenges posed by economic recession, epidemics and the fierce debates generated by its constitutional policies.

In both the literal and metaphorical senses, it seemed as if 1970s America was running out of gas. The decade not only witnessed long lines at gas stations but a citizenry that had grown weary and disillusioned. High unemployment, runaway inflation, and the energy crisis, caused in part by U.S. dependence on Arab oil, characterized an increasingly bleak economic situation. As Edward D. Berkowitz demonstrates, the end of the postwar economic boom, Watergate, and defeat in Vietnam led to an unraveling of the national consensus. During the decade, ideas about the United States, how it should be governed, and how its economy should be managed changed dramatically. Berkowitz argues that the postwar faith in sweeping social programs and a global U.S. mission was replaced by a more skeptical attitude about government's ability to positively affect society. From Woody Allen to Watergate, from the decline of the steel industry to the rise of Bill Gates, and from Saturday Night Fever to the Sunday morning fervor of evangelical preachers, Berkowitz captures the history, tone, and spirit of the seventies. He explores the decade's major political events and movements, including the rise and fall of détente, congressional reform, changes in healthcare policies, and the hostage crisis in Iran. The seventies also gave birth to several social movements and the "rights revolution," in which women, gays and lesbians, and people with disabilities all successfully fought for greater legal and social recognition. At the same time, reaction to these social movements as well as the issue of abortion introduced a new facet into American political life-the rise of powerful, politically conservative religious organizations and activists. Berkowitz also considers important shifts in American popular culture, recounting the creative renaissance in American film as well as the birth of the Hollywood blockbuster. He discusses how television programs such as All in the Family and Charlie's Angels offered Americans both a reflection of and an escape from the problems gripping the country.

Abstract: Abstract of dissertation entitled Competition Policy and Strategies in the Public Transits: A Case Study of Hong Kong's Mass Transit System Submitted by Raymond Liu wai‐man for the degree of Master of Arts in Transport Policy and Planning at the University of Hong Kong in September 2004 This dissertation is trying to understand current situation in Hong Kong's public transit system, in terms of regulatory framework and competition conditions. Different pricing models and regimes have been implemented. They have proved to be effective in providing a comprehensive coverage with a high quality of services in many dimensions. This is the result of a regulation regime worked well with a competition regime under the specifically historical, economic, and geographical conditions in Hong Kong. A case study is carried out after a brief review on relevant concepts and theories on regulation and competition. The role played by legislators is emphasized. The Government plays a dual role as both the regulator and the administrator for the public transit system. The competition policy of the Hong Kong Government encourages a fair playground with more choices for general public, at the same time promotes a degree of certainty for public transport operators. A sector‐specific approach is adopted to regulate the industry rather a comprehensive competition law as in many developed countries. A competitive analysis on the competition elements of two major public transport companies, the Kowloon Motor Bus Company Limited, and the MTR Corporation Limited is carried out. To better illustrate the competitive nature, two mini‐cases were presented. One is the Airport Express Railway service and its competition with other modes in providing a dedicated service for the Hong Kong International Airport. A market niche strategy coupled with a specific pricing strategy is used to compete. Another mini‐case is the Tsueng Kwan O Line service and its competition with other modes. The case demonstrates that a metro system could work well with other modes of transport and provide a better service to the general public. International perspective is also studies and discussed on aspects of efficiency, regulation regimes, public transport pricing and financing. ‐ i ‐ Competition can not take place in a vacuum. A comprehensive legal and institutional framework is a must to ensure a fair playground. A robust and efficient industrial structure is required to meet the market demand. Political consensus building is a challenge for regulators and legislators. A strong will and determination by the Administration are vital in implementing its transport policies. Public transport pricing and financing from private investors with a certainty and a commercial rate of return would ensure the ste
