Reflections on Teaching

Hong Kong Taxation

Law and Practice, 2014–15 Edition Ayesha Macpherson Lau and Garry Laird

In this handy book, Icy Lee and Paul Sze share their careers as nonnative Englishspeaking educators in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). They recollect their experiences as learners, teachers, and teacher educators and include stories by other pre-service and in-service teachers. These experiences illustrate multifaceted issues in TESOL, providing inspiration for nonnative speaking professionals in the field and encouraging them to examine issues that are central to their career and their practice. The book contains four sections addressing core issues in secondlanguage teacher education, each beginning with an introduction followed by a number of stories and ending with a few questions for further discussion.

This standard text is updated annually by the experienced tax professionals of KPMG, an international network of member firms offering audit, tax, and advisory services. The volume covers the major areas of Hong Kong taxation: Property Tax, Salaries Tax, Profits Tax, Personal Assessment, and Stamp Duty. It explains the principles and practice of taxation law through relevant tax cases and Board of Review decisions and contains numerous practical examples. The current edition covers the 2014–15 budget changes and the latest developments in taxation.
