Description

內容簡介: 「為了解香港製造業的歷史和發展,我先後走訪了多位廠商。並進行資料蒐集。好讓這些重要的製造業能為香港長遠的發展重新帶來一點啟發。」 ──何耀生 香港經濟繁榮,源於工業發展,回顧上世紀八十年代,香港取得巨大的經濟成就,亦是「亞洲四小龍」之一。香港輕工業在世界譽有盛名,是全球出口最大地區之一,因此促進貿易、航運、金融得以蓬勃發展,香港亦成為國際金融和航運中心。 隨着經營和土地成本不斷上升,香港廠商在八十年代起,紛紛北移到國內,而當時港府沒有制定工業政策,反而向金融地產傾斜,造成單一經濟,使其他行業嚴重萎縮。 本書作者走訪多位廠家:造船、紡織、造鞋、成衣、禮品、鐘錶、玩具、電子、珠寶,向讀者展現過往多年來,香港工業發展的經過。這些本土工業的歷史,反映香港好幾代人自強不息和勇於開拓的精神。此外,作者亦探討工業由盛轉衰的因由;最後更訪問不同範疇人士,為香港工業的長遠發展及轉型提供意見。 香港人的集體回憶、珍貴的歷史圖片,在山寨廠艱苦的歲月,你我有着無窮共鳴。 作者簡介: 何耀生,香港歷史文化研究人,致力推廣保育工作和通識文化教育。先後為多間中小學,「香港大學」、「香港中文大學」、「香港理工大學」,和「嶺南大學」舉辦通識文化教育活動。近年更策劃多個保育古蹟文化活動和展覽。此外,何先生曾先後倡議香港政府成立「香港歷史舊城區」,及重新規劃「前荷李活道警察宿舍」。 筆者於八十年代中,曾任職美國最大服裝公司LIZ CLAIBORNE INC.,並派駐上海,負責離岸加工生產的工作。到九十年代轉職日本機構,經常到海外和國內負責產品和市塲開發。對於香港製造業的歴史及發展一直進行研究和蒐集有關資料,此外,更關注工業轉型升級,和製造業結合創意產業的發展等……就香港今後如何保育歴史文化和城市發展,他曾先後在《明報》、《南華早報》、《蘋果日報》、《香港經濟日報》、香港電台、亞洲電視發表不少意見。
