Hong Kong (香港; "Fragrant Harbour"), officially Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, is an autonomous territory on the southern coast of China at the Pearl River Estuary and the South China Sea. Hong Kong is known for its skyline and deep natural harbour. It has a land area of 1104 km2 and shares its northern border with Guangdong Province of Mainland China. With around 7.2 million inhabitants of various nationalities, Hong Kong is one of the world's most densely populated metropolises.
After the First Opium War (1839–42), Hong Kong became a British colony with the perpetual cession of Hong Kong Island, followed by Kowloon Peninsula in 1860 and a 99-year lease of the New Territories from 1898. Hong Kong remained under British control for about a century until the Second World War, when Japan occupied the colony from December 1941 to August 1945. After the Surrender of Japan, the British resumed control. In the 1980s, negotiations between the United Kingdom and the China resulted in the 1984 Sino-British Joint Declaration, which provided for the transfer of sovereignty of Hong Kong on 30 June 1997. The territory became a special administrative region of China with a high degree of autonomy on 1 July 1997 under the principle of one country, two systems. Disputes over the perceived misapplication of this principle have contributed to popular protests, including the 2014 Umbrella Revolution.

Street food is ready-to-eat food or drink sold by a hawker, or vendor, in a street or other public place, such as at a market or fair. It is often sold from a portable food booth,food cart, or food truck and meant for immediate consumption. Some street foods are regional, but many have spread beyond their region of origin. Most street foods are classed as both finger food and fast food, and are cheaper on average than restaurant meals. According to a 2007 study from the Food and Agriculture Organization, 2.5 billion people eat street food every day.
Today, people may purchase street food for a number of reasons, such as to get flavorful food for a reasonable price in a sociable setting, to experience ethnic cuisines, or for nostalgia.
Small fried fish were a street food in ancient Greece, however, Theophrastus held the custom of street food in low regard. Evidence of a large number of street food vendors were discovered during the excavation of Pompeii. Street food was widely consumed by poor urban residents of ancient Rome whose tenement homes did not have ovens or hearths. Here, chickpea soup with bread and grain paste were common meals. In ancient China, street food generally catered to the poor, however, wealthy residents would send servants to buy street food and bring it back for them to eat in their homes.
Xi Jinping (pronounced [ɕǐ tɕînpʰǐŋ], Chinese: 习近平; born 15 June 1953) is the General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, the President of the People's Republic of China, and the Chairman of the Central Military Commission. As Xi holds the top offices of the party and the military, in addition to being the head of state through the office of president, he is sometimes informally referred to as China's "paramount leader". As general secretary, Xi is also an ex-officio member of the Politburo Standing Committee, China's top decision-making body.
Son of communist veteran Xi Zhongxun, Xi Jinping rose through the ranks politically in China's coastal provinces. He served as the governor of Fujian between 1999 and 2002, then as governor and party secretary of the neighboring Zhejiang between 2002 and 2007. Following the dismissal of Chen Liangyu, Xi transferred to Shanghai as the party secretary for a brief period in 2007. Xi joined the Politburo standing committee and central secretariat in October 2007, and was Hu Jintao's successor. He served as vice-president, between 2008 and 2013.

Plot: Eleven teenage boys find themselves suddenly alone in a post-apocalyptic world in which the only food they can find to eat is 'Skinny Wheats' crackers. They learn to live outdoors, where they are safer, but the weather is always hot, and they call their camp 'Paradise.' Their daily searches for food and people are dangerous and not always survived, but they are hopeful that if they found some adults the adults would know what to do... until they actually find some adults and realize they're better off on their own, and they are stronger than they knew. Meanwhile, something invisible leaves notes for the boys with clues on them, which they follow to a shocking discovery that could steer them in an entirely new direction.

Hong Kong marks the 20th anniversary of the handover from British to Chinese rule. But tensions are high as China's president visits for the first time as head of state. Pro democracy activists are threatening protests involving 100,000s of people, saying China has failed to live up to its promise of greater freedoms and democracy. Lawyer and media commentator Andrea Chun provides a sense of what Hong Kong is like now compared to 20 years ago.

20 years ago, Britain handed Hong Kong over to China, on the condition that Hong Kongers would keep their way of life. Predictably, the Communist Party did not hold up their end of the bargain.

Follow me on instagram: @javin_lau instagram.com/javin_lau Hong Kong is Home. I remember when I first arrived in Hong Kong almost a decade ago, I felt like I had walked into an actual movie set. It was a place that I had only seen on TV as a kid, with its strange red taxi’s, odd stop lights and driving on the other side of the road. My intent with this project was to illustrate the grandeur of Hong Kong that most people would never get to see. When I had recently watched the movie Oblivion, it had somehow starkly reminded me of Hong Kong, with the feeling of being so insignificantly small -- almost irrelevant to my surroundings. Hong Kong is an unbelievably dense city, where much of the world can be accessed at your fingertips. But in a city where you can access the material world in ...

This video was shooted in 2014. During two my visits HK in February and November. First time I was so much impressed of this place because its the density of life. So many skycreapers, people, cars on a such small square. The best view on HK is from the rooftops, thats why most of the shots are from there. In second visit in November 2014 I became an eyewitness of Umrella revolution in Hong Kong. I was impressed of courage and perseverance HK citizens. Some of these scenes got into video.

Edited footage that I shot on a visit to Hong Kong, a city where time warps seem to be the norm. Hong Kong – Upside Down captures this impression of the surreal, as I imagine Hong Kong as a place of no gravity, where dimensions merge, split apart, and collide, and where both people and buses pulse and move forward and backward to the beat of time.

20 years ago, Britain handed Hong Kong over to China, on the condition that Hong Kongers would keep their way of life. Predictably, the Communist Party did not hold up their end of the bargain.

Follow me on instagram: @javin_lau instagram.com/javin_lau Hong Kong is Home. I remember when I first arrived in Hong Kong almost a decade ago, I felt like I had walked into an actual movie set. It was a place that I had only seen on TV as a kid, with its strange red taxi’s, odd stop lights and driving on the other side of the road. My intent with this project was to illustrate the grandeur of Hong Kong that most people would never get to see. When I had recently watched the movie Oblivion, it had somehow starkly reminded me of Hong Kong, with the feeling of being so insignificantly small -- almost irrelevant to my surroundings. Hong Kong is an unbelievably dense city, where much of the world can be accessed at your fingertips. But in a city where you can access the material world in ...

This video was shooted in 2014. During two my visits HK in February and November. First time I was so much impressed of this place because its the density of life. So many skycreapers, people, cars on a such small square. The best view on HK is from the rooftops, thats why most of the shots are from there. In second visit in November 2014 I became an eyewitness of Umrella revolution in Hong Kong. I was impressed of courage and perseverance HK citizens. Some of these scenes got into video. Equipment used: Canon 5D mark3, (Magic Lantern) Lenses: Canon 17-40, Canon 24-105, Canon 70-200, Sigma 12-14. Giottos carbon tripod. Music: The Prodigy - Climbatize

http://sergemaheu.com Video and soundtrack made for an assignment with the following subject: "Urban utopia". Edited footage that I shot on a visit to Hong Kong, a city where time warps seem to be the norm. Hong Kong – Upside Down captures this impression of the surreal, as I imagine Hong Kong as a place of no gravity, where dimensions merge, split apart, and collide, and where both people and buses pulse and move forward and backward to the beat of time.
