    Notes: Is China's "land use rights" legislation whichdistinguishes transferable "land use rights" and inalienable"land ownership", a novel concept unknown to human kindbefore, or a pragmatic reversion to the private property rights systemabolished by the communist revolution? Advocates the view that thelatter is a more correct interpretation. As part of a "goingcapitalist" economic reform programme, such a reversion ismanifested in the legal recognition of the leasehold tenure after the"responsibility system" in privatizing agriculturalproduction had proved to be successful. As the development of privateproperty rights is a prelude to market transactions, the Chinese landuse rights reform should be conducive to the success of the economicliberalization policy of China, provided that there is a contemporaneousadvance in the development of the rule of law and technical know-how,such as valuation and land surveying.

    Planning conditions in Hong Kong: An empirical study and a discussion of major issues (2005)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Property management 23 (2005), S. 176-193

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Purpose - This paper was motivated by the absence of a government examination of and professional interest in planning conditions as a means of development control in Hong Kong. Proposes to examine this situation. Design/methodology/approach - The research objective is achieved by a field survey and legal analysis of its findings. The field survey of all the 60 residential development projects in Hong Kong under comprehensive development area zoning subject to conditional planning permissions from 1998 to 2000 involving 119 planning applications was conducted to assess factual compliance with planning conditions. Findings - The findings show that, while most physical planning obligations have been duly fulfilled in these projects, the non-depositing of master layout plans for development poses actual and potential public domain problems of planning enforcement, building permission, conveyancing and property management. The major problems of non-compliance are property purchasers being unable to fully appreciate the environment of a development when making a decision to buy; subsequent titles defects, unauthorised building works and operations. Suggestions are made to close the loopholes in planning law and to introduce a formal channel for retrospective rectification in the light of the social consequences of non-compliance. Originality/value - This paper is the first serious attempt to evaluate the importance of compliance with planning conditions in Hong Kong and its analysis should be of interest not only to local policy makers and professional people in particular, but also to researchers in comparative development control in general.

    The formation of owners' corporations in Hong Kong's private housing estates: A probit evaluation of Mancur Olson's group theory (2004)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Property management 22 (2004), S. 55-68 
    Details
    ISSN: 0263-7472
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: This paper uses a probit model to analyse 100 observations in terms of three hypotheses about the formation of owners' corporations in high-density private housing estates in Hong Kong within the context of Mancur Olson's group theory. The findings do not reject the theory, revealing that it is more likely for an older urban estate with fewer owners to form owners' corporations. The discussion includes a brief introduction to Olson's group theory and the development of the probit analysis. Some speculative thoughts about public participation in local level urban management and planning are offered in the conclusion.

    Facilities management and planning for heritage sites: lessons learnt from a pilot study on disused military sites (2003)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Facilities 21 (2003), S. 80-89 
    Details
    ISSN: 0263-2772
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Architecture, Civil Engineering, Surveying
    Notes: This short paper presents the lessons learnt for conservation planning of heritage sites from a pilot study on disused military structures on Devil's Peak, Hong Kong. Stakeholders' interest and surveying as facilities management factors should be well considered in the planning stage for heritage conservation. Thus, public education and involvement and on-site land surveying is essential for future project success.

    PLANNING BY CONTRACT: THE LEASEHOLD FOUNDATION OF A COMPREHENSIVELY PLANNED CAPITALIST LAND MARKET (2005)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Economic affairs 25 (2005), S. 0

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Hong Kong has used a system of planning by consent that predates planning by edict. By selling long leases on a contractual basis, the government has an incentive to provide the contractual terms, obligations and rights to the leaseholder that maximise the value of the land. This system has been effective in generating fiscal revenue and producing good planning outcomes in a resource-poor economy.
