Email: elsieho@waikato.ac.nz I joined the Migration Research Group in the Department of Geography, University of Waikato as a Research Fellow in February 1994. Originally from Hong Kong, I obtained both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Psychology from the University of Hong Kong, and taught in the Department of Applied Social Studies of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University until 1990. Since migrating to New Zealand, I completed my doctoral degree in the Department of Psychology, University of Waikato in 1995 on the subject of the adaptive process of Chinese adolescent immigrants. Major publications related to this research include a book chapter on the Hong Kong Chinese community in Auckland (Ho and Farmer, 1995) and a journal article on different paths of adaptation taken by Chinese adolescent immigrants entering New Zealand between 1987 and 1992 (Ho, 1995). Since joining the Migration Research Group in 1994, I have completed a number of research projects, including:
a school survey of Chinese and Korean immigrant adolescents in Auckland (funded by the Foundation for Research, Science and Technology in 1995);

After watching Asia's Global Influence , ask students to find Hong Kong on a world map. Explain that Hong Kong is not an independent country, but a territory. In 1898, after a war between Britain and China, the two countries signed an agreement that gave Britain control of Hong Kong for 99 years. In 1997, it was returned to China. However, unlike socialist China, Hong Kong has a market economy, one of the world's most prosperous.
Ask students to describe the physical geography of Hong Kong.

Hong Kong: From trading post to key commercial centre
The former Hong Kong governor, Murray MacLehose, who first raised the issue of handing over the territory with Beijing, has died aged 82 at his home in Scotland. As the British governor of the former colony from 1971 to 1982, Lord MacLehose oversaw its development from a trading post into an international city and one of the key commercial centres in Asia. He was widely credited with helping Hong Kong prosper, but critics accused him of being too friendly towards China and failing to introduce a democratic system of government into the territory.
Hong Kong reverted to Chinese rule in 1997
Lord MacLehose summed up his opposition to full elections, saying: "If the Communists won, that would be the end of Hong Kong. If the nationalists won, that would bring in the Communists," according to Britain's Daily Telegraph. He later admitted that his opposition to introducing full democracy was "the sort of thing one looks back at and wonders whether one should have done it". But he maintained he still thought he had been right.
