I'm pretty much predicted all the questions to be what they were.
World Cities
- Did this question for two seperate assessments this year
- High presences of TNCs
- Large stock exchanges
- Advanced telecommunications and transport
- Universities and museums
- Used London, New York and Tokyo
- Very similar to2008 Independent - Analyse the role of world cities as centres of economic and cultural authority
- Least to write about in my opinion
- Talked about management in general
- In focus - utility, heritage and intrinsic values
- Used case studies of GBR and Fraser Island
- Similar to HSC 2003 - Justify the importance of ecosystem management and protection.
- People on the MEESTA Lecture Day will know that Grant Kleinmann predicted this question as well
- Tourism
- Talked about economic, technological and 'other'
- Economic - GFC, GFC and more GFC
- Technological - A380, Internet etc
- Other - the four A's - accessibility, affordability, accommodation and attraction
