Wednesday, July 2, 1997 - The Michigan Daily - 7 HONG KONG Continued from Page 1 tropolis. rnce Charles, in a formal ceremony marking the handover,. showed a great deal of emotion in expressing his gratitude to Hong Kong's residents for their role in building the former colony into a bustling worldwide commercial and trading center. Under a 1984 treaty introducing the "one country, two sys- tems" terms of transfer, the new Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong will be ruled by the people of Hong Kong and retain its own financial and trading systems, liberties and laws. In the wake of the celebration, questions as to how Beijing's staid conservative communist leaders will deal with capitalist ng Kong quickly emerged. Pierre Landry, a University political science doctoral candi- date, said personal freedoms in Hong Kong will be bridled almost immediately. "There will be curbs on demonstrations, no one will be allowed to question the independence of Hong Kong, Taiwan or Tibet or the Communist Party of China's right to rule," Landry said. Chinese President Jiang Zemin, in trying to alleviate con- cerns about potentially drastic changes in Hang Kong resi- dents' economic and personal liberties, pledged that China will retain the spirit of the treaty. However, immediately after taking control, 4,000 Chinese troops rolled into the former British colony, evoking images of soldiers entering Tiananmen Square nearly a decade ago. Political science doctoral candidate Andrew Mertha. who lived in Hong Kong for two years, said the troops were meant not as a show of force to Hong Kong's citizens, but instead intended to give a new face to the Chinese People's Liberation Army. "The troops were deliberately non-threatening," Mertha said. The Chinese government "used the opportunity of having cameras and press in Hong Kong" to show the world "a differ- ent image of the PLA than troops in Tiananmen.' Economics doctoral candidate Su Sun is optimistic that the transfer will not adversely affect Hong Kong's economy. Instead, he said that further integration of Hong Kong and the mainland m ay help the Chinese economy better inter- act with the rest of the world. "China is a huge market with tons of opportunities for for- eign investors," Sun said. "Hong Kong is a perfect landing strip for them." Economics professor David Li is "cautiously optimistic" about the future of Hong Kong's economy. On the political front, he said, China's leaders may initially have trouble adjust- ing to Hong Kong residents' far-reaching freedoms -- espe- PROVOST Continued from Page 1 served as provost for two years, and in that time has served under three different University presidents. The appointment will mark a dramatic step in the reconstruction of the University's administration, which underwent a great shif following the res- ignation of former University President James Duderstadt in July, 1996. The shift has left openings, currently being filled by interim appointments, in many of the University's top administra- tive positions, including chief financial officer, vice president for research and general counsel. The creation of the new position of executive vice president for medical affairs has left the need for another administrative spot to be filled. Currently, there are three search com- mittees in action. Besides the Provost Search Advisory Committee, search committees for the CFO and EVPMA positions have been formed. Bollinger said the EVPMA position should be filled by the end of July, and the CFO position shortly thereafter. The search for general counsel has been postponed until the fall. The 11-person student and faculty committee has considered candidates from all around the nation, Bollinger said. "This has been an outstanding com- mittee," Bolllinger said. "We have oper- ated by discussion and given the full consideration of a national search." The committee sought additional assistance by utilizing the assistance of Shelley Storbeck, a consultant with Chicago firm A. T. Kearney. Bollinger said Storbeck helped the committee "to obtain a sense of the prin- ciple candidates across the country." Storbeck said the committee is operat- ing very efficiently and effectively. "We were essentially asked to bring the search to a conclusion," Storbeck said.
