Immediately after completing my doctoral study at Oxford University in 1989, I joined The University of Hong Kong as lecturer to the then Centre for Urban Planning and Urban Studies. Since the restructuring of the Centre in July 2008 to become Department of Urban Planning and Design within the Faculty of Architecture, I have been an associate professor of the Department until 2021. I served as the first Associate Dean (Research) of the Faculty from 2011 to 2016. The primary areas of my teaching and research have been on urbanisation, urban agglomeration and creative cities with strong spatial focus on regional development in China and cross-border competition and cooperation between Hong Kong and the Greater Pearl River delta region. I have secured several competitive research grants, including a GRF awarded in 2014 and (as collaborator) a German research grant on Megacities. My current research projects include the development of new districts in the Greater Pearl River Delta region, evolving border landscape between Hong Kong and the mainland cities, urban agglomeration and creative cities. I have been visiting fellow to Hughes Hall, Cambridge University and also hold visiting appointments at Department of Geography, University of Szeged, Hungary and several tertiary institutes of China. I am appointed as visiting professor of the Peking Normal University, Zhuhai. I am recipient of the University Outstanding Research Student Supervisor Award in 2014. Professionally, I am a chartered member of the Royal Town Planning Institute, UK and a fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. I have also served on various professional bodies, including being the elected Chairman of the Hong Kong Geographical Association (1999-2001), an elected honourable member of the Institute of Shopping Centre Management (Hong Kong), member of the Economic Planning Committee of the Chinese Institute of Planners, and the founding member of the Macau Urban Planning Institute. I was elected to serve on the Board of Directors of the Asian Urban Research Association effective 2014.
