Abstract: "Shopping malls in Hong Kong are homogeneous, the operating mode for each malls are almost the same." commented by Hong Kong shoppers. It is being criticized that Hongkongers do not have choice when they do shopping in malls, the tenant mix in every shopping malls are similar, small and medium enterprises were asked to leave the malls after tenancy expiry, their space are then replacing by well known brands or chain stores. In this dissertation, one would first identify the extent of homogeneity of regional shopping malls in Hong Kong, selected shopping malls including New Town Plaza in Shatin, APM in Kwun Tong, Domain in Yau Tong and Cityplaza in Taikoo Shing are studied, by interviewing shoppers in those shopping malls, one would be able to understand more on their views in shopping malls homogeneity. Shoppers' views are important in this dissertation as they are the one who make the complain on shopping malls. The tenant mix, quality design, marketing and promotions, and customer services are important factors leading to success of malls. Being the shopping mall operators, in order to increase footfall and thus sale volume of their tenants, when tenants' business improved, they could be able to pay higher rent. In result, the income of shopping malls increased. In the second part of this dissertation, further analysis will be concluded from shopping mall operators regarding their views on shopping malls homogeneity and investigating the underlying causes for the homogeneity in different aspects. From shopping mall operators aspects, no one would be intentionally sculpture a mall which is similar to its counterparts. Operators aim at satisfying the need of their target customers so that they will visit the malls frequently. This intention might be the causes leading to the similarities of regional shopping malls as the target catchment of the regional shopping malls are larger, unlike neighbourhood shopping malls aim at serving shoppers from the estate nearby, more effort should be made in order to attract target shoppers. Finally, the concluding chapter of this dissertation provide suggestions for further studies in Hong Kong shopping malls, an unique retail environment which is far different with shopping malls overseas. Hong Kong shopping malls are yet to be improved so that it would offer shoppers unforgettable shopping experience, it is the responsibility for every operators, both public and private ones. In result, Hong Kong could retain its name of "shopping paradise." DOI: 10.5353/th_b5124666 Subjects: Shopping malls - China - Hong Kong

It consists of retail stores and leisure facilities for public to spend their time as well as maximises their quality of lives. Many decades ago, the majority of shopper preferred to shop in street fronting outlets and the open food markets. After a well development of retail business, there was a move away from the open markets to shopping centres. In the past two decades, the economy of Hong Kong has undergone a remarkable transformation, which continues to grow strongly recent years. The development of a shopping centre has got dynamic changes as well. The demand for an improved quality of life is increasing so that the basic shopping environment cannot satisfy shoppers. Apart from having good shopping environment in shopping centres, shoppers expect to take other advantages such as receiving exciting experience and having diversification of tenant mix. In fact, a successful shopping centre should be accommodated in a multi-purpose building where integrated with different facilities, for example shopping, entertainment, dining, and recreation. It aims to reduce the travel time of shoppers and provide what they actually need. Four shopping centres, APM, New Town Plaza, Telford Plaza and Maritime Square, are selected in this dissertation. Seven factors including location and visibility, accessibility, size, design and layout, anchor tenant, tenant mix and promotion which affect the success of shopping centres in Hong Kong are chosen after study the literature review. Nevertheless, numerous scholars argued the relative importance of the factors, for example, Beddington (1982) and Abratt et al.(1985) emphasized that the success of a shopping centre was affected by the tenant mix which was the single most important determinant. Abghari and Hanzaee (2011) opined that the tenant mix is an influential factor of a shopping centre while other factors are less important. Consequently, two hypotheses were established in this study. In this research, the importance of the factors for successful shopping centres was studied in details and this would be useful for owners and management operators of shopping malls. Total twelve research questions were analyzed through conducting surveys for tenants and shoppers, and they were categorized into two categories which were to find out the dominant factors affecting the success of shopping centres and to rank those factors in order to find out the most crucial factor. After performing the thorough data analysis, it was found that "accessibility" and "tenant mix" were the dominant factors affecting the success of shopping centres where "accessibility" was the most crucial factor. Recent years, with the development and improvement of transportation network, the importance of "accessibility" factor has gradually increased. Actually, "accessibility" was the main reason to attract people to visit shopping centres, which could increase the pedestrian flow and sales volume of the malls. In addition, shoppers were not willing to spend time on travelling so that "accessibility" became more important. On the other hand, the findings of this survey showed that "tenant mix" was less important than "accessibility" due to the similar tenant mix and homogenous shopping centres in Hong Kong, and it also showed that "promotion" was the least important affecting the success of shopping centres. It was becau...

Book excerpt: Hong Kong is the twenty-first-century paradigmatic capital of consumerism. Of all places, it has the densest and tallest concentration of malls, reaching tens of stories. Hong Kong’s malls are also the most visited, sandwiched between subways and skyscrapers. These mall complexes have become cities in and of themselves, accommodating tens of thousands of people who live, work, and play within a single structure. Mall City features Hong Kong as a unique rendering of an advanced consumer society. Retail space has come a long way since the nineteenth-century covered passages of Paris, which once awed the bourgeoisie with glass roofs and gaslights. It has morphed from the arcade to the department store, and from the mall into the “mall city”—where “expresscalators” crisscross mesmerizing atriums. Highlighting the effects of this development in Hong Kong, this book raises questions about architecture, city planning, culture, and urban life. “At the nexus of density, humidity, topography, and prosperity, Hong Kong has spawned more malls per square mile than any place on earth. This fantastic book decodes and graphically depicts an environment both apart and ubiquitous, a convulsive form of public space in a liquid territory where intensely contested politics, commerce, and sociability weirdly merge in a city like no other.” —Michael Sorkin, distinguished professor of architecture of the City University of New York “Hong Kong may be packed with the most shopping malls per square kilometer in the world, but Mall City is packed with the most drawings, information, and fascinating mall facts. The book dissects, categorizes, and displays all kinds of intriguing data on the city-state’s shopping complexes and culture. Its richly layered analysis perfectly matches Hong Kong’s multi-story machines for consumption.” —Clifford Pearson, director of USC American Academy in China “Stefan Al has again produced a book that provides a sharp lens on radically new urban forms that are emerging in China. While his previous books, Villages in the City andFactory Towns of South China introduced the site of production and housing for the migrant labor of the Pearl River Delta, here we enter the phantasmagoria of the enormous interconnected free-trade shopping zone of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Mall City dissects the basic unit of this climate-controlled consumer landscape—the mall. This beautifully illustrated book is a must-read for those who wish to understand the future of public space in high-density cities.” —Brian McGrath, professor of urban design and dean of constructed environments, Parsons School of Design

Abstract: Hong Kong is a popular destination for Mainland tourists for shopping tourism, particularly after the introduction of Individual Visit Scheme in 2003. Recently, there has been growing tension between local residents and Mainland visitors in sharing leisure spaces such as shopping malls. There is a need to develop a better understanding of this host-guest relationship in order to maintain sustainable tourism development. This study is to examine shopping as a leisure experience in Hong Kong to have better knowledge of use of shopping spaces of Hong Kong residents and Mainland visitors. It is also aimed to analyze their perceptions towards shopping malls in Hong Kong, and enhance understanding of their mutual perceptions when sharing shopping mall spaces. It adopts social exchange theory to develop a theoretical framework which guides the operationalization of the investigation. Mixed methods, including questionnaire survey, in-depth interviews and documentary research are employed for the investigation. A total of 561 sets of valid questionnaires were collected in five shopping malls in Hong Kong and 10 personal in-depth interviews with both local residents and Mainland visitors were conducted. Significant differences were found between Hong Kong residents and Mainland visitors in various research aspects. Reasons for visiting shopping malls in Hong Kong were grouped into Culture and Novelty, Relaxation, Personal Growth, Socialization, and Utilitarian Needs using factor analysis. Utilitarian Needs was a common factor, and Hong Kong residents were also motivated by Socialization while Mainland visitors were driven by Culture and Novelty. On top of shopping, leisure and manifestation of cultures, shopping malls were particularly perceived by Hong Kong residents to be places for dining, gathering point and satisfying needs of Mainland visitors. Residents also believed sharing shopping malls spaces caused loss of loss colours and crowding problems while Mainland visitors stressed the role of shopping malls in tourism city although some interviewees acknowledged possible impacts in local community. In terms of mutual perceptions, Hong Kong residents were negative about Mainland visitors' behaviour and crowding problems while Mainland visitors tended to be positive about local residents'. Perceptions were also found to have significant association with pleasantness of experience and change of perceptions. Contribution of this study lies on both theoretical and practical dimensions. Specifically it supplements tourism perception studies with a focus on perceptions of leisure resources and mutual perceptions in the context from a multidisciplinary and mixed methods approach using social exchange theory. Findings should also provide implications for both government and shopping mall developers, with regards to relevant policy making and business considerations for carrying capacity enhancement through balancing mutual benefits-between hosts and guests - in using local resources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the cultural framework of the connections between homeownership and social stability in Hong Kong. In the post-war period, homeownership became the most preferable housing choice in developed societies, such as Australia, Britain, Japan, Spain, and the United States. In the financialization era, its proliferation aggregated enormous wealth and debt in the housing and mortgage markets, affecting social stability by creating inequality and housing unaffordability. Hong Kong is the most extreme example of this among developed societies – in recent years, the city has made international headlines both for its housing problem and its social instability. By studying the history of homeownership in Hong Kong over a period of four decades, Chung-kin Tsang proposes that homeownership is inseparable from the social imagination of the future, conceptualizing this framework as "hope mechanism". This perspective helps trace the connections between ‘House Buying’ as a hope mechanism – one which is central to subject formation, life goals, and temporal mapping for socially shared life planning – and social stability. Given its unique approach, specifically its use of "hope" as an analytical category, this book will prove to be a useful resource for scholars in economic culture and financialization, and Asian Studies, especially those working on the cultural, sociopolitical, and economic history of Hong Kong.

From the most primitive form of exchanging goods with money on streets to the development of retail outlets and department stores, online shops are rapidly booming as one of the modern shopping preferences nowadays. This paper focuses to investigate the factors affecting shoppers' preference of choice between online shopping and mall shopping. The exploratory study examined 3 groups of shoppers including mall shoppers, online shoppers and cross shoppers to compare and contrast their concerned motives and behaviour as appeared in the two shopping modes. The comparison was based on a theoretical model derived in part from Fishbein and Ajzen.s "Theory of Reasoned Action (1980)"; Cowles, Kieker, and Little "E-tailing Theory (2002)," Tauber (1972)'s Situational I Personal shopping motives model and a comprehensive literature review. The model identified the theoretical factors anticipated to influence the shoppers' groups shopping behaviors. A total of 297 shoppers in 3 shopping malls served as the purposive questionnaire samples. Factors derived from literatures were incorporated into the survey questions to identify the group of shoppers adopting e-shopping, cross shopping and mall shopping and their respective factors affecting their preference of choice. It was reviewed that apart from the various 'consumer', 'marketing' and 'technology' factors affecting e-shoppers, some of the factors were also found influencing the mall shoppers' preferences of choice in a similar way. Likewise, traditional factors motivating people to shop in mall have also infused with new social elements due to the e-era and people's change of lifestyle. In addition, special features and positioning in various malls were also discovered to exert a different impact on shoppers' option. To further enrich the research, face-to-face interview was also conducted with an online store manager and a shopping mall manager to obtain information from the management perspective. In reviewing their perceived reasons as to affect shoppers' preference to e-shopping and mall shopping, on top of the similar factors as suggested in the literatures, they both put much emphasis on the tactical strategies in business operation. Insights were drawn that online stores and shopping malls may not be direct competitors as one may not substitute the other. Recommendations on future business planning in each shopping mode were also made by frequently reviewing shoppers' desire and wants. The paper was concluded by summarizing the findings and to forecast the future shopping trends. Recommendations were also made to online stores and shopping mall operators to cope with shoppers' preferences and maximise their profit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China’s rise as an economic superpower has been inescapable. Statistical hyperbole has been accompanied by a plethora of highly publicized architectural forms that brand the regeneration of its increasingly globalized urban centres. Despite the sizeable body of literature that has accompanied China’s modernization, the essence and trajectory of its contemporary cityscape remains difficult to grasp. This volume addresses a less explored aspect of China’s urban rejuvenation - the prominence of the shopping mall as a keystone of its public spaces. Here, the presence of the built form most representative of Western capitalism’s excess is one that makes explicit the tensions between China’s Communist state and its ascent within the ’free’ market. This book examines how these interrelationships are manifested in the culturally hybrid built form of the shopping mall and its role in contesting the ’public’ space of the modern Chinese city. By viewing these interrelationships as collisions of global and local narratives, a more nuanced understanding of the shopping mall typology is explored. Much architectural criticism has failed to address the levels of meaning implicit within the shopping mall, yet it is a building type whose public popularity has guaranteed its endurance. Consequently, if architecture is to remain a relevant social art, a more holistic understanding of this phenomenon will be indispensable to the process of adapting to globalizing forces. This examination of Chinese shopping malls offers a timely and relevant case study of what is happening in all our cities today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In late 2014, the prodemocracy demonstrations that were called the "Umbrella Movement" revealed to the world that Hong Kong was not the moneyobsessed society it had often been portrayed as. Hong Kong Soft Power is a description of the complex relationship the artists and activists of this city have had with the country it has been part of since 1997. Trying to understand all the varied forms of art practices possible in the Special Administrative Region by locating them within a relational model, and situating them within the dynamic and changing art ecosystem that has developed over the last decade, Hong Kong Soft Power describes the local art field as a site of struggle where the connections with Chinese Mainland institutions and art practices play a fundamental role. This is not to say that this influence has entirely dominated the local art field, and this book also emphasizes how the artists of the city have engaged in practices ranging from the most personal to the most sociallyoriented. With the analysis of the works of about fifty local art practitioners and a representative range of art institutions, Hong Kong Soft Power is the portrait of a culture going through the trials and tribulations of rapid political and economic changes in both its negative and positive effects.
