A decade has been passed since the Chinese Civilisation Centre (CCIV) was established at the City University of Hong Kong in 1998. For some, the term “Chinese Civilisation” may be an anti-thesis to modernity. Yet a deeper pondering over the issue will easily lead to different interpretations. For any civilization and culture to continue evolving and growing, there will always interaction with outside influences, and even challenges. It is a continuous process – the present and the future simply cannot be separated from the past. Thus, it is the goal of the centre to bring the treasures and values of Chinese civilization not only to the knowledge of our students but also for international appreciation as well. It is against this backdrop that this blog is launched. We believe in the importance of the exchange of thoughts should knowledge be developed and new ideas be inspired. It is hoped that this blog could act as a channel through which not only discussion of any topic of interest be enhanced but our cultural activities can also reach out to a wider audience.
