Progression 1

1. The Collective Memories
>there must be something that people tresure, care, and love
>to observe, to care before something is going to be removed / disappeared
>to predict which area / district / location to be the next Collective Memories in HK
>find out the relationship between facilities / infrastructure / buildings and people

2. Study of Sham Shui Po
>there are lots of old and short bulidings which are going to be removed. However I find that the actions have been taken slowly by the government
>the goods are actually very cheap there
>there are some renowned streets that people love to go(especially men).
e.g. Apliu street (selling electronic stuffs)
Yen Chow Street (a famous area for buying clothes, location of the Police Station)
Fuk Wing Street (a place for wholeselling / selling toys where both children and adults love to go).....etc.

3. Solution
>Though It is not a modernized district with advanced facilities and famous brand new shops, the districts attract so many local people and foreigners to visit everyday
>It is a place where people acustomed to go because they can save money for the lower price goods when compare with other place.
>It becomes valuable memories as time goes by
>People may focus on the old bilidings for the topic of Collective Memory, as they symbolise or show the passing moment. However the fact is that a place which can become one of the "Collective Memory" of people is the history, goods and the contribution of shop managers.

>>>>>>Time plays an important role to prove the success of a place to acquire the honor of "Collective Memory"
