东海岸经济区：关丹、北根与云冰旅游业

（关丹4日讯）彭亨州务大臣拿督斯里旺罗斯迪表示，自东海岸经济特区发展理事会（ECERDC）（East Coast Economic Region [ECER] Development Council ）成立以来，彭亨已实施14个总值40亿令吉的高影响力项目。

他说，该项目涵盖关丹、北根和云冰等地区的旅游业、制造业、基础设施发展、农业企业和社会经济等多个领域。

他表示，这些项目包括马中关丹产业园（MCKIP）、北根汽车园、甘孟清真食品中心、彭亨科技园（甘孟 Gambang，Pahang Technology Park），以及关丹港扩建及城市发展 。

农业综合企业方面，已完成的项目包括姆阿占莎（Muadzam Shah）畜牧业研究与创新中心（MSCRIC）和云冰综合黄梨产业（RIPP）。

旅游业则涉及珍尼湖州立公园和北根遗产旅游发展，关丹海滨区的关丹188塔、土产手工艺商业中心和河畔公园。

他是今日在彭亨州议会议上回答巴登东姑州议员穆斯达巴隆提问时，这么说。

后者要求列出东海岸经济特区发展理事会下的高影响力项目。

确保东彭发展平衡

旺罗斯迪也介绍其他几个正在实施的项目，即关丹的遮拉丁海龟保护和信息中心及北根旧市镇的旧建筑升级改造。

正在实施的还有马中关丹产业园的3个制造业项目和一个基础设施发展项目，涉及从登嘉楼甘马挽到彭亨州重要工业地格宾的输水管道。

在回应穆斯达巴隆口头质询时，旺罗斯迪并不否认东彭和中彭有更多发展和拨款，但州政府已采取行动，确保东彭发展更加平衡。

“州政府不仅依赖东海岸经济特区发展理事会，事实上自2018年，我担任州务大臣第一年已建立‘西彭Plus’（Pahang Barat Plus）计划促进区经济，许多项目正在西部实施。”

西彭包括文冬县、劳勿县和立卑县，而连突县和百乐县（Bera）则囊括在西彭Plus。

放眼明年逾11亿税收

彭亨州政府收入连续两年突破10亿令吉大关，放眼明年11亿3700万令吉税收目标。

彭亨州务大臣拿督斯里旺罗斯迪表示，截至12月3日，彭亨州政府已取得11亿6000万令吉收入，超过2023年财政预算案设定的10亿8000万令吉目标。

“这是一项了不起的成就，彭亨州政府连续两年收入超过10亿令吉。这使彭亨与雪兰莪和柔佛等其他发达州属持平。”

他表示，截至今年11月28日，彭亨州的投资总额为164亿令吉，其中包括47亿令吉的国内投资和116亿令吉的外国投资。

“这些数字清楚地表明，投资者对彭亨州的潜力和稳定充满信心。”

他今天在彭亨州议会提呈以“关注彭亨，人民繁荣”为主题的2024年彭亨财政预算案时，如此指出。

调查漏税降低债务

旺罗斯迪说，彭亨州政府将继续解决漏税问题，以增加对国库的贡献，并实现明年目标。

“我们将继续调查漏税情况，并监督参与彭亨州种植园计划的联邦机构，除了林业，我们也将探讨其他收入来源，包括可再生能源。”

同时，他表示州政府已成功减债，从去年的10亿3000万令吉减至今年11月的约9亿8349万令吉。

“如果在各方和合作下，债务能够进一步减少，彭亨州政府将继续努力降低债务。”

政策利好下，特色小鎮發展前景良好

特色小鎮是指依賴某一特色産業和特色環境因素（如地域特色、生態特色、文化特色等），打造的具有明確産業定位、文化內涵、旅遊特徵和一定社區功能的綜合開發項目。

特色小鎮能夠推進新型城鎮化建設，實現鄉村振興，促進國家可持續發展，具有戰重要戰略意義。近年來，國家出台多項政策鼓勵支持特色小鎮建設，爲行業提供良好發展環境。2022年3月，國家發改委發佈《2022年新型城鎮化和城鄉融合發展重點任務》，明確提出要促進特色小鎮規範健康發展，健全各省份特色小鎮清單管理制度，加強監測監督監管，防範處置違規行爲，通報負面警示案例。

特色小鎮種類多樣，根據地域文化、自然風貌等因素可分爲曆史文化型、生態旅遊型、特色産業型、金融創新型、城郊休閒型等。在國家政策及市場需求的推動下，中國特色小鎮數量不斷增長，目前國家級特色小鎮數量超過400個。從區域分佈來看，國內特色小鎮主要分佈在華東、中南地區。其中華東地區特色小鎮數量佔比接近30%，位列第一，中南地區佔比約爲22%，位列第二。

根據新思界産業研究中心發佈的《中國特色小鎮建設規劃及與發展前景研究報告》顯示，2019-2022年，受疫情影響，國民出行意願及旅遊需求降低，疊加政策對特色小鎮建設要求不斷收緊，國內特色小鎮市場規模呈波動下降趨勢。2022年中國特色小鎮市場規模約爲10000億元，同比下降約20%。隨着國民經濟逐步恢復，旅遊經濟逐步復蘇，以及産業轉型升級步伐逐步加快，中國特色小鎮市場規模有望恢複增長態勢，行業發展前景良好。

在行業前景看好的背景下，中國特色小鎮運營企業數量不斷增加，市場競爭較爲激烈。目前國內特色小鎮運營企業主要有中青旅控股股份有限公司、天行九州控股有限公司、華僑城集團有限公司等。

新思界行業分析人士表示，隨着中國經濟發展水平不斷提升，鄉村振興産業不斷發展，以及國家政策支持力度不斷加大，中國特色小鎮市場規模將不斷增長，行業景氣度良好。在市場競爭不斷加劇，政策監管日趨嚴格的背景下，國內特色小鎮行業需要迎合市場發展需要，立足當地特色資源或區位優勢，吸引人才、技術聚集，明確自身定位，避免同質化競爭，向規範化、多元化等方向發展。(2023-11-11；原載：www.newsijie.com）

Sungai Pertemuan and Jalan Penarikan revisited

During the past weekend, my family and I embarked on a brief journey to Felda Jelai, near the border of Negeri Sembilan and Johor. Our travels led us to a place of significance, known as Sungai Pertemuan, located 8 kilometers west of the town of Bahau.

Last weekend me and family made a small trip to Felda Jelai towards the Negeri Sembilan-Johor border and made stops to and fro. Among it is a place called Sungai Pertemuan, 8 km west of the town of Bahau.

Translated, the name elegantly signifies the "meeting of rivers," marking the confluence of the Jempol River with the flowing waters of the Muar River. The grandeur of the Muar River extends over 100 kilometers, gracefully merging into the Straits of Melaka at the town of Muar. In times of yore, small ships ventured upstream from the straits, navigating the Muar River with apparent ease.

Comment by Suyuu on December 11, 2023 at 10:24pm

These vessels would journey upstream along the Jempol River, reaching a historic juncture that beckons our exploration. But before delving into that historical point, let us contemplate the meeting of the Muar and Jempol rivers from various perspectives.

Comment by Suyuu on December 11, 2023 at 10:23pm

In the proximity of this confluence rests the tomb of an individual known as Datuk Sempedang. Legend whispers that he led nine families from Pasai, located in Aceh, north of Sumateras island. Settling here after navigating the Muar River, Datuk Sempedang's legacy endures in the tales woven around him.

Turning our gaze northward from this meeting point, the Jempol River courses along the left, hidden from view in the expanse captured by this description. Nestled somewhere to the left, obscured by the grandeur of towering trees, lies the region christened Jalan Penarikan. Its name carries echoes of the past when ships were laboriously pulled some 300 meters to the Serting River.

Behind the walls of a Negeri Sembilan palace, the Serting River meanders, guarding the secrets of an ancient pulling route etched into its westward walls. From the Serting River, these ships embarked on a further journey, navigating the Bera River to reach the Pahang River, ultimately flowing into the vast embrace of the South China Sea.

Japan Creative Centre

As a result of the Japan-Singapore summit meetings held in March and November 2007, an agreement was reached to set up the Japan Creative Centre (JCC) in Singapore as a base for disseminating information on Japan's culture and technologies. The Centre is the first of its kind outside Japan as a new type of culture and information centre that showcases Japan's "now", and could serve as a model for the future.



"Innovation and Tradition" is the main theme of the Centre. The Centre will showcase Japan's "soft power", such as pop-culture and traditional arts, besides creating space for experiencing the charms of Japan. The contents of the Centre can be enjoyed not only by the Singaporeans but also by the peoples of other Southeast Asian countries. The Centre's highlights of "Cool Japan" will include high technology, design, gourmet, fashion, traditional craft, traditional art, music and movie, anime and manga. We received valuable advice from Mr. Toshiyuki Kita, a world-renown industrial designer and design producer, in embodying the concept of the JCC project and its design. It is not public sectors but private sectors who should take the lead in promoting "soft power". Therefore, we would like to ask the private sectors to provide us with ideas and initiatives. In particular, we will highly appreciate any ideas and requests as to what is appropriate and favorable for the projects of the Centre.

A 450m2, single-story building was provided by the Singaporean government to house the Centre. The building is located at the start of Orchard Road (at 4 Nassim Road), a location so ideal for holding events to attract visitors.

Centre facilities are (1) Multi-purpose Hall with an approximate capacity of 50 seats; (2) E-Library holding a good collection of Japanese-related books, music, movie, anime and other documentary DVDs that are free for reference by the public, and (3) Exhibition Space dedicated to exhibits and displays. With these facilities to begin with, we hope you can help us further expand on our ideas.

All facilities of the Centre, in principle, are made available to a wide range of users. The Centre could also be used for various events that you co-organise with the Centre. We sincerely hope you to make full use of the Centre.

We thank you for your cooperation and continued support.

Please send us your ideas and questions to the following address:

陳崗〈西湖：旅遊者符號〉（1）

提要：旅遊者符號實踐概念的提出，旨在進一步凸顯旅遊者在旅遊吸引物符號建構中的主體性。本文以杭州西湖的“西子”詩詞為例，初步探討了旅遊者符號實踐概念的基本內涵、理論支撐與研究價值。旅遊者符號實踐並不是對已有符號記憶的被動接受，而是借助旅遊者的親身體驗，不斷將其運用到旅遊實踐中去加以檢驗、深化和再創造的動態演進過程。


符號學理論、實踐理論和（身體）現象學理論，構成了旅遊者符號實踐研究的三大理論支撐。符號實踐是旅遊者符號體驗過程中主觀與客觀、過去與現在、已知與可能、我者與他者、代表物與對象等諸多二元關係的中間環節和關鍵樞紐，既關係到旅遊者的符號體驗質量，也與旅遊目的地可持續發展息息相關，因而具有一定的研究價值。 

2011 年，杭州西湖作為我國迄今為止唯一一例“關聯性文化景觀（Associative cultural Landscape） ”被列入世界遺產名錄。根據聯合國科教文組織《實施世界遺產公約操作指南》，關聯性文化景觀“以與自然因素、強烈的宗教、藝術或文化相聯系為特征，而不是以文化物證為特征”[1]。

Comment by Suyuu on May 22, 2023 at 10:57pm

與其它類型文化景觀相比，關聯性文化景觀被天然地賦予了更多的文化敘事，文化內涵也更加豐富。詩詞是杭州西湖文化敘事中的一種重要形式。宋代大文豪蘇軾《飲湖上初晴後雨》詩中“水光瀲灩晴方好，山色空蒙雨亦奇。欲把西湖比西子，淡妝濃抹總相宜”的著名詩句，將杭州西湖之美與古代四大美女之一的西施聯系了起來。從此，杭州西湖也有了“西子湖”的美譽，“西子”也成了杭州西湖的重要品牌符號。

杭州西湖的美女形象並非源於蘇軾。關於杭州西湖的眾多文化敘事中，贊揚其東方女性美的特質，一直是一個重要主題。早在蘇軾之前，唐代著名詩人白居易就已經用“青羅裙帶展新蒲”、“草綠裙腰一道斜”等美麗女性的形象形容杭州西湖。

同樣，杭州西湖的“西子”符號建構也並非止於蘇軾。蘇軾賦予杭州西湖以“西子”符號之後，武衍、盧炳、陸遊、董嗣杲、劉過、張岱等著名詩詞人一次又一次地將杭州西湖與“西子”之間的聯系推向深入[2]。正是諸多文人墨客對杭州西湖“西子”符號的持續檢驗、深化和再創造，才使得該符號能夠不斷的吸收新的元素，內涵日益豐富。

旅遊者符號實踐是指借助親身體驗，旅遊者不斷將其關於旅遊吸引物的符號記憶，運用到旅遊實踐中去加以檢驗、深化和再創造的動態演進過程。正是通過旅遊者符號實踐，包括杭州西湖“西子”符號在內的不同類型旅遊，吸引物符號才能夠得到持續的傳承和創新。

然而，通過對旅遊符號學研究歷程的回顧，可以發現學術界尚未對旅遊者符號實踐研究加以特別關注。鑒於此，本文以杭州西湖的“西子”詩詞為例，在梳理相關研究的基礎上，對旅遊者符號實踐的基本內涵、理論支撐與研究價值進行探討。

1 研究綜述

符號學已經成為旅遊研究的重要理論視角。麥肯奈爾（Mac Cannell） 較早將符號學理論運用到旅遊研究中，認為旅遊吸引物符號的能指為標誌（marker，即關於景物的信息），所指為景物（sight），並特別強調了旅遊活動中標誌體驗的重要性[3]。

受麥肯奈爾經典研究的影響，傳統旅遊符號學研究較多地，圍繞“標誌”符號的生產、傳播和體驗展開。早期的相關研究學術界已有較為完整的評述[4-6]，這里不再贅述。由於互聯網日益成為影響旅遊想象和旅遊者實踐的重要媒介，學者們開始關注旅遊“標誌”符號的網絡傳播模式、內涵與效果等方面[7-10]。
