Four students of the Master in Community Development, namely Olivia Lam, Nelson António, Katrina Lok and Calvin Tam, accompanied by Professor Ray Choy, taking the Module ‘Power, Strategy and Social Change’ interviewed one of the Macau Legislative Assembly law makers and social service practitioners of Macau. As part of the classes, the visits were aimed at having a better understanding of the process of social and community change in Macau, and in particular comprehending the various power strategies adopted and recognizing the main characteristics of community activists and leaders.
On 14 January 2017, students had an interview with Mr. José Pereira Coutinho who is a member of the Legislative Assembly of the Macau SAR. Discussion topics included Macau’s power structure and his leadership strategy and style. Some of the Macau’s major current social issues were also discussed. Mr. Coutinho believes that Macau’s education system and youth generation have great potential for future improvement. He shared that Macau social values tend to be materialistic nowadays because of the increased importance of the gaming industry. In his point of view, for the sustainability of Macau’s development, the government has to diversify the economy. He also advised that the younger generation should raise their competitiveness and broaden their horizons.
On 20 January 2017, students visited the Holy House of Mercy Rehabilitation Centre for the Blind and had an interview with the center director, Ms. Janet Leung, and the coordinator, Mr. Eric Leong.
Eric, an individual with visual impairment, shared his experience of empowerment. Besides the administrative work at the center, he organizes training and public education workshops. He also teaches his fellow members to use IT tools, computer and smart phones to help them integrate to the society. During the interview, the students realized that he Eric is a graduate of USJ and is now pursuing a master degree in Counseling and Psychotherapy. During the conversation with Ms. Leung, the students learned that the center representatives are actively participating in the government consultation for transportation for people with disabilities and free access facilities.
Katrina, a student, shared that “Mr. Coutinho is very experienced in politics and he shared some aspects of his own strategies and working style.” She also said that “Eric showed us a positive attitude towards his life, what he needs is people to have deeper understanding of visual impairment rather than simply showing sympathy. People with visual impairment lack job opportunities and respective training to better integrate into the society.”
Professor Choy highlighted that “It is a good opportunity for students to have community visits and learn from community leaders. Students should have learned the kinds of power the law maker and the individual with visual impairment have. The aim of their strategies such as social and community actions, and public education is to give Macao people more power over their own lives and to make Macao a better society”.

About the Talk
Co-author of the books Hong Kong In-Between (MCCM / Park Books, 2015) and The People of Duckling Hill (Hong Kong Polytechnic University, 2015), Géraldine Borio will illustrate the journey of a Swiss architect researching and working on Asian in-between spaces.
The narrow back lanes of Hong Kong and leftover spaces under Bangkok’s expressways have been the entry points to understand the mechanisms of urban environments. Less regulated and less sterile than official public spaces, these edge public spaces – unplanned and appropriated by the inhabitants – function as important buffer zones across the city. By observing people’s interactions with these in-betweens, in both physical and metaphorical ways much can be learn from their strategies to overtake the harsh environment.
Through architecture, artistic and research projects, Géraldine Borio has been engaging city users to experience urban space differently, using constraints as a starting point for creativity.
About the Speaker
Géraldine Borio is a Swiss Registered Architect who graduated from the Swiss Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL / ETH). She is the co-founder of Parallel Lab (an architectural office and laboratory for urban research based in Hong Kong) and the founder of Bah! (a micro development infrastructure). She is currently teaching at the School of Design, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Prior to that, she has worked with various firms in Tokyo, Beijing, and Hong Kong and has taught architecture at the University of Hong Kong and the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

From the Garden of Eden to the Mount of Olives, it was through words that God spoke to men.
This series of four talks wishes to reflect on the languages of the Bible, namely Hebrew and Greek, the original languages of the Old and the New Testament, and on Latin, the language of biblical text transmission in the West up until the Reformation and thereafter.
After an introductory session, which will deal mainly with the relations between language and their writing systems and religious texts in general, each following session will deal with each of the Biblical languages, briefly describing them and the more relevant questions surrounding the textual linguistic composition.
About the Talk: Session 4: Hebrew, the language of the Old Testament (23rd Mar 2017)
If the words of Jesus Christ were translated into Greek, the Old Testament, in turn, was originally written in Hebrew, the very language God is supposed to have spoken when he addressed his prophets.
This session will deal with the place of Biblical Hebrew in the context of the Semitic languages, a brief description of the language, the history of the Biblical Hebrew writing systems, the internal composition of the Old Testament and the concept of Sacred Language still held today among Hassidic and Orthodox Jews.

About the Talk: Session 3: Latin, the Language of the Vulgate (9th Mar 2017)
For centuries the word of God was transmitted to most of Christianity, especially in the western world, through the Latin Vulgate. Its history starts around the 4th century and it goes on well into the 20th century with the publication of the Nova Vulgata in 1979.
This session will look at the history of the Vulgate, the motives for its appearance, its relation with the Vetus Latina, the quality of its Latin, among other questions.

About the Talk: Session 2: Greek, the Language of the New Testament (23rd Feb 2017)
Jesus and His disciples were Jews from Palestine and in their daily lives they spoke Aramaic, a Semitic language related to Hebrew, and yet, the writers of the NT chose to render Christ’s words in Greek, a totally unrelated and structurally alien language to Aramaic or Hebrew.
This session will look at Biblical Greek in the context of Koine Greek and the influences it suffered from Hebrew. An attempt will also be made in order to explain why Greek was chosen as the language of the New Testament.

Salone Satellite is an international showcase of young designers, under age of 35, for presenting their ideas and products. This event lasted three days with over a thousand of visitors and 41 designers from China. Daniel said, 'I was honored to be nominated for my grad project - The In Out Stool. It is made out of plywood and stainless steel. The theme of the Project is “Food For Thought”. In Macau, there are many different of styles of eating. For me, eating on the street with folding stool represents the Macau food culture. In this project I redesign the folding stool, and the concept is iconic shape, simple structure and to make impossible into possible. For example the legs support structure. Through this event, I have made many friends with designers around the world and teachers who gave me a lot of suggestions and inspirations. We exchanged not only ideas but also friendship. Another important thing that I brought home is the learning of new technique, craftsmanship and technology. I realized that there is so much to learn and I view this trip more of an exchange than showcase. Besides design, I also practice my skills of presentation and communication.'"
