Lyndon Johnson’s Political Maneuver
Lyndon Johnson’s Political Maneuver
Dr. Wen ZHOU
近年美國民意兩極化，許多社會重大問題如槍械管制、墮胎等難以化解。民眾的分歧，本該以少數服從多數的原則，在國會通過立法來解決，但這一原則常常無法奏效。少數派的拿手絕活是「拉布」，亦即通過長時間發言、討論，阻止對某項法案投票以至法案的通過。從古羅馬到當今各國議會，包括香港特區立法會的不同黨派，都使用過這種手段。美國國會參眾兩院則只有參議院可以拉布，這自然成為法案通過的重要關卡。

Fortress China: Xi Jinping’s plan for economic independence
Fortress China: Xi Jinping’s plan for economic independence
Prof. Zhiwu CHEN
Chen Zhiwu, a professor of finance at the University of Hong Kong, says Chinese leaders understand military conflicts may be “hard to avoid” if Beijing wants to unify Taiwan with the mainland. “The comprehensive economic sanctions against Russia after its invasion of Ukraine have only added urgency to [China] achieving self-sufficiency in technology, finance, food and energy,” Chen adds. “Self-sufficiency as a phrase has regained currency in the party’s publications.”

Developing agriculture technology is a necessary step towards food security
Developing agriculture technology is a necessary step towards food security
Prof. Heiwai TANG
自全球新冠肺炎疫情及俄烏戰爭爆發以來，各國在維持供應鏈穩定和糧食安全問題方面一直面對史無前例的挑戰。2050年，預計全球將需要養活接近100億的人口，加上糧食供應會受到一些不可預測的短期衝擊，以至長期氣候變化加劇對土地水源的影響，環球農業將面臨巨大的考驗，對豐富和廉價食品的供應造成嚴重壓力。香港90%以上的食品供應是從國外進口，所以700多萬人口的糧食安全，長遠來看亦會備受衝擊。

Opportunities for Hong Kong in the RCEP Agreement
Opportunities for Hong Kong in the RCEP Agreement
Prof. Heiwai TANG
“Hong Kong is located at the centre of RCEP – if you visualise RCEP as a sun dial, you have mainland China, South Korea, Japan to the north of Hong Kong. To the south of Hong Kong, you have ASEAN, New Zealand, and Australia, so there’s a lot of trade data flows going through Hong Kong.

Turning the Tide on Gender Equality
Turning the Tide on Gender Equality
Dr. Maurice K.S. TSE
作為婦女事業發展史上的重要里程碑，《北京宣言》和《行動綱領》早於1995年第四次世界婦女大會上已獲通過。然而據世界經濟論壇於2021年3月的《全球性別差距報告》（Global Gender Gap Report），性別平等進展受新冠肺炎影響而遭遇挫折，距離達標為期135年，較2019年的預期推遲36年。

Curbing electricity use is no solution to climate change
Dr. Guojun He
氣候變化威脅地球食水供應、減少農業生產、危及沿海地區、損害人類健康，並使生態系統惡化。極端天氣造成的過度死亡，更被認為是一大災難性後果。據2017年發表於《科學》（Science）期刊的一篇文章估計，到二十一世紀末，極端氣候帶來的超額死亡成本可能佔美國氣候災難損失總額約70%之多。

Singapore’s new talent attraction initiatives could include special visas, relocation grants: observers
Singapore’s new talent attraction initiatives could include special visas, relocation grants: observers
Dr. Gedeon J. LIM
This would be if the government wishes to attract "young, fresh or 'unproven' talent", said Gedeon Lim, a Singaporean economist from the University of Hong Kong. But he added: "If they are looking mainly for established, top 1 percentile innovators, bankers, thought leaders in their respective fields, we already have a scheme in place, so it seems difficult to think of what else the government might be able to do, short of lowering the threshold and increasing the quota for these existing visa schemes."
