D-Sides is a 2007 compilation album by the British virtual band Gorillaz. The album contains B-sides and remixes from singles and bonus tracks for the band's second studio albumDemon Days. It was released on 19 November 2007 in the UK and on 20 November in the United States and is available in standard and deluxe editions. The Japanese deluxe edition includes three extra tracks, plus the video for 'Rockit'.D-Sides performed similarly to its 2002 predecessor, G Sides, reaching #63 on the UK Albums Chart, while it reached #166 on the US Billboard 200 chart.
Background
In a 2006 interview with Verbicide Magazine, band members were asked if a new remix album would be produced for Demon Days as there was for Gorillaz. They answered that it was a possibility and that might involve the Spacemonkeyz again. In the same interview, they were asked if there might also be another G Sides. Again, their answer was that it might be possible. In January 2007, websites began listing a March release date for a Phase 2 B-sides album. One of the websites, musictap.net, later pushed this back to 3 April. According to Gorillaz-Unofficial, the reaction of official parties behind Gorillaz is that the release date is just a rumour for now. On 29 August, musictap.net reported that the B-side album would be titled D-Sides and would be released on 20 November. On 18 September 2007, the official Gorillaz fansite confirmed the release of the album, as well as unveiling the album artwork and track listing. D-Sides was released on 19 November 2007 in the UK and on 20 November 2007 in the U.S.
Education in Hong Kong is largely modelled on that of the United Kingdom, particularly the English system. It is overseen by the Education Bureau and the Social Welfare Department.
Small village Chinese schools were observed by the British missionaries when they arrived circa 1843. Anthony Sweeting believes those small village schools existed in Stanley, Shek Pai Wan, Heung Kong Tsai and Wong Nai Chong on Hong Kong Island, although proof is no longer available.
One of the earliest schools with reliable records was Li Ying College established in 1075 in present-day New Territories. By 1860 Hong Kong had 20 village schools. Chinese who were wealthy did not educate their children in Hong Kong, instead they sent them to major Chinese cities, such as Canton, for traditional Chinese education. The changes came with the arrival of the British in 1841.
Hong Kong is a 26-episode adventure/drama series (plus an initial pilot episode) which aired on ABCtelevision during the 1960–1961 season and helped to catapult AustralianactorRod Taylor into a major film star, primarily in the 1960s, beginning with his role in Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds. The series was a production of 20th Century Fox Television, and the final credit of each episode stated: "Filmed by Twentieth Century Fox Television Inc. at its Hollywood studios and in the Crown Colony of Hong Kong".
Synopsis
Hong Kong was set in the then British Crown Colony of Hong Kong. Taylor portrayed Glenn Evans, an American journalist who worked in the exotic Far Eastern city. His search for stories led him into encounters with smugglers, murderers, drug peddlers, and mysterious women who would disappear behind beaded curtains. Taylor’s principal costars were Lloyd Bochner, who portrayed Chief Inspector Neil Campbell, and Jack Kruschen as Tully the bartender.
In the television series, Evans' residential address is often given as the fictitious 24 Peak Rd. As shown in various episodes, the interior of Evans' bachelor apartment (actually a Hollywood set constructed on a sound stage at 20th Century Fox Studios) includes a large, sliding-glass door which opens to a small patio with a sweeping vista that overlooks the harbor and distant peaks. Today's view of the harbor from Peak Road is very different from the Crown Colony days of 1960-61. Today it is a cityscape of high-rise dwellings and skyscrapers crowding out what had been a magnificent natural scene.
The station is connected to Central Station by two tunnels. The walk between the two stations typically takes three to six minutes. The tunnels, which cross under Connaught Road Central, are equipped with moving walkways. The station, retail mall, pedestrian tunnels, footbridges and masterplan for the IFC development were all designed by Arup Associates (Hong Kong Office) in collaboration with Rocco Design Architects Limited, Ove Arup & Partners, and Meinhardt.
This station provides an in-town check-in service for flights departing Hong Kong International Airport and free shuttle bus services to most major hotels in the Central and Wan Chai areas.
Education in Hong Kong: Students risk high levels of stress
Hong Kong's education system is the envy of many countries. Students there regularly top academic league tables and graduates from the city are some of the most employable in the world. But as Joel Flynn reports, there are fears this excellence may be coming at the expense of children's mental health.

Hong Kong’s Teachers Are Leaving. Is The National Security Law Behind It? | Insight | Full Episode
Teachers in Hong Kong are leaving in record numbers. About 6,550 resigned or retired in the last academic year, almost twice the average prior to 2021. One possible reason? The National Security Law. Changes to the curriculum and limits on what can be discussed have left liberal-minded educators feeling stifled. Teachers are also worried that they risk censure should class discussions run afoul of the law.
At the same time, thousands of students have also dropped out of Hong Kong schools, as the emigration wave continues. Some classrooms now sit empty. How will Hong Kong schools emerge from this shake up, and what will they look like after?

Yu Chun Keung Memorial College was one of the first schools in Hong Kong to introduce AI tools like ChatGPT in classrooms. They started using AI chatbots in classes for non-science subjects such as language and history in January 2023, just two months after ChatGPT was unveiled by Microsoft-backed OpenAI. While admitting the risks and limitations of artificial intelligence, principal Yeung Hok-hoi said schools have to train students to future-proof their careers in the incoming age of AI.

Kraiz Kayastha grew up attending a Chinese-medium primary school in Hong Kong. But after almost six years, the Nepalese Hongkonger still struggles to understand his lessons, let alone speak the language. Despite record government funding allocated to programmes meant to boost Chinese proficiency among its non-Chinese student population, a language crisis has persisted for many years. One local charity is on a mission to bridge the language gap in time for pupils to transition into Chinese-medium schools.

Teachers in Hong Kong are leaving in record numbers. About 6,550 resigned or retired in the last academic year, almost twice the average prior to 2021. One possible reason? The National Security Law. Changes to the curriculum and limits on what can be discussed have left liberal-minded educators feeling stifled. Teachers are also worried that they risk censure should class discussions run afoul of the law.
At the same time, thousands of students have also dropped out of Hong Kong schools, as the emigration wave continues. Some classrooms now sit empty. How will Hong Kong schools emerge from this shake up, and what will they look like after?

A Hong Kong educator was banned for life from teaching in the city after he was accused of making separatist remarks in a classroom. Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam said the government decided to pull the teacher’s licence after a “thorough probe”. But an education system insider told the South China Morning Post that the teacher’s comments were part of life-education classes meant to help pupils understand freedom of speech. China’s central government has blamed schools for helping to foment opposition to the ruling Communist Party. One opposition lawmaker in Hong Kong says the government’s moves will further hinder speech freedoms and have a negative impact on the education system in the city.
