Keynote Speech 3: Cantopopsibility: Reflections on the Crisis of Cantopop as a Creative Industry
Date: April 19th, 2015
Time: 09:00 - 10:30
Venue: CPD-LG.10, Centennial Campus, HKU
By Prof. Stephen Yiu-wai Chu
Professor & Director of the Hong Kong Studies Program, School of Modern Languages and Cultures, The University of Hong Kong.
According to Baseline Study on Hong Kong’s Creative Industries conducted by The University of Hong Kong for the Central Policy Unit of the Hong Kong SAR Government in 2003: “The music industry in Hong Kong is dominated by Cantopop in production and sales. It constitutes a major part of the entertainment business of the territory in terms of employment and contribution to GDP. It is also a major part of the popular cultural phenomenon of Hong Kong, which ‘has significant influence in the region and also a large market in every community overseas’.”
But while creative industries are viewed by the government to be vital to the future success of Hong Kong, people tend to think that Cantopop has been declining significantly over the past decade. This talk examines the crisis faced by Cantopop – once the trend-setter of Chinese popular music – as a creative industry. It is argued that the decline of Cantopop has to be explored in the light of the recent development of Hong Kong culture per se.
As Cantopop continues to struggle to regain momentum, the valued synergy among popular cultures, inter alia, would be an indispensable factor.

Keynote Speech 2: Cultural Anthropology Research and Museology at the National Museum of Ethnology, Japan
Date: April 18th, 2015
Time: 14:00 - 15:30
Venue: CPD-LG.10, Centennial Campus, HKU
By Dr. Kenichi Sudo
Director-General, National Museum of Ethnology
The National Museum of Ethnology(NME)was established in 1974 as an inter-university cooperative research institute, according to the Japanese government higher research and education policy. In the Asia-Pacific region, this museum may be the largest research center for social-cultural anthropology and ethnology. We also provide graduate education at the doctoral level.
Our sixty researchers have conducted fieldwork on societies, cultures and socio-cultural changes brought by globalization at locations worldwide. We are also active in Japan. We organize and host Core Research Projects, Inter-University Research Projects, international symposia, and other academic meetings. These efforts contribute to expanding the boundaries of research. Each year, we receive more than one thousand foreign and domestic researchers to join these activities.
To pursue a deeper understanding of cultures and values our staff also collect and preserve artifactual, audio-visual, and documentary materials. NME has collected upwards of half a million artifacts and audio–visual materials. These and our research efforts contribute to new types of exhibitions. Our permanent and temporary exhibitions receive over two hundred thousand visitors each year.
The main activities of the museum are:
1) Research,
2) Exhibition,
3) International and Domestic Contributions through Museology, and
4) Construction of an Info-Forum Museum for Cultural Resources.
