【香 港 文 化 前 景 研 究】籌款
第一階段計劃籌款：香港普選制度研究與社會文化影響
普選需要推動，更需要研究。北京和香港特區政府為了安定社會，恢復信心，普選是唯一的方法；美國為了保證香港法治及國際社會在香港的安全，也制訂《香港人權及民主法案2019》促成香港普選。香港普選很快到來，之前很多政黨政客爭取普選，但民主普選涉及的制度建設和社會基礎，大家並無妥善研究。香港的社會創新和文化創意，以及一連串的社會信心增強、消費行為轉變而帶來的繁榮和文化輸出，也會因普選而帶動，我們見到台灣和南韓的強勁例子就知道。
香港普選的話，立法會起碼要做以下準備：
一、修訂議會規則及法例：取消功能組別，要有一系列的法例變動的準備。
二、制訂政黨法：促進新生政黨可以註冊公司或社團，可以在銀行開戶，而不會遭受被公司註冊處及銀行取締（香港眾志也遇到阻礙）。
三、研究選區重整：五大選區是否要改變，或者只是劃分香港九龍新界三大選區而在當選之後才分配地區服務辦公室，甚至統一香港為單一選區？
四、社會基礎建設：開放電視台、電台牌照及報攤牌照，令小黨及多元政治取向可以得到宣傳，令香港社會更開放。
五、傳統及主流文化維護：在政黨競爭的時候，有什麼制度可以保障中西傳統文化在香港得到傳承?
此外，美國介入香港政治，也要研究美國和香港的長期文化聯繫。《香港城邦論》出版近十年，也要促成英譯本面世（其中包括香港本土運動里程碑的記錄）。這是第二個和第三個要開展的研究項目。
圖中所見，是第一階段的政策和文化研究的項目，需要各位捐款推動。籌款足夠之後，會依照學術規格，成立研究督導委員會，招聘研究員（培養青年研究人才）及支付行政及辦公室費用。
研究報告會在中期的時候匯報，完成之後會上載網頁，期間會外出訪問及出國研究及探訪，例如研究美國文化影響的時候會走訪美國。

[Research for Hong Kong’s Cultural Prospect] - Fundraiser for the First Stage
Universal suffrage not only requires advocacy, but also research. To stabilize Hong Kong society and restore its confidence, Beijing and the HKSAR Government are set to pursue universal suffrage, as the US passed the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act to secure rule of law and the safety of the international society in Hong Kong. The universal suffrage that many politicians had fought for in the past will soon arrive, but its crucial systematic construction and social foundation had never been properly studied. Universal suffrage will drive Hong Kong’s social and cultural innovations, as prosperity and cultural exportation come with greater confidence in society and changing consumption habits, just as Taiwan and South Korea once flourished.
Below are the basic preparations for the LegCo, once universal suffrage comes into effect in Hong Kong:
1. Amend rules of procedure and laws accordingly: eliminate functional constituencies and prepare for a series of alterations in laws.
2. Enact Political Parties Act: encourage newly founded parties to register as companies or societies, while allowing them to open up bank accounts without being suppressed by banks and the Companies Registry.
3. Consider re-assignment of election districts: are the five districts adequate? Should there be only three larger districts, namely Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and New Territories, where district offices will be distributed after all legislators are elected? Should Hong Kong be just a single district?
4. Social infrastructures: make licenses of TV channels, radio stations, and newsstands publically accessible, creating an open society that allow minor political parties and political stands to promote themselves.
5. Conservation of traditional and mainstream culture: what kind of institution can safeguard the heritage of both Chinese and Western traditions in Hong Kong, amidst the competition of political parties?
Furthermore, as the US intervenes in Hong Kong’s politics, the long-term cultural relation of the two should be studied. After a decade of its publication, 香港城邦論 should finally be translated into English, which shall include the evolution of Localism in Hong Kong. These will respectively be the second and third research projects.
The picture below shows the first stage of the research which consists of the study of policy and culture. Your donations are critical for the project’s inauguration. Once there are sufficient donations, a supervision committee for the research that complies to strict academic standards will be established. Part of the donations will be contributed towards the recruitment of researchers (which would cultivate young talents), administrative expenses, and office rental.
A midterm report for the research will be available on a designated website. During the course of studying about the influence of American culture, there will be expeditions to the US, as for studying other countries.
