Abstract
On 1st of July, 1997, the sovereignty of Hong Kong was transferred to the People’s Republic of China and the Bi-literacy (Chinese and English) and Trilingualism (Cantonese, Mandarin, and English) Language Policy was initiated by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government in order to include Mandarin alongside English and Cantonese as the official languages of Hong Kong to be taught in the public school curriculum. However, there was much resistance to this policy and cases of discrimination against Mandarin and its speakers, even in schools, were reported. Using the framework of Contexts of Policy Making, this study examined the implementation of the Bi-literacy and Trilingualism language policy in Hong Kong. The analysis reveals that the resistance to Mandarin on the part of the populace of Hong Kong can be understood from the perspectives of postcolonialism and anti-cultural imperialism. This analysis makes a useful resource for policy makers to refine the Bi-literacy and Trilingualism Language Policy in the future.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
