“…In the urban network, if connections among multiple cities must pass through a city, that city can be considered to have an important position [31]. The index describing individual centrality is betweenness centrality (BC), which reflects the degree of individual control over resources [32]. Numerically, the closer the BC of a node is to 0, the fewer nodes it can control, the weaker its intermediary role in the network, and the closer it is to the edge of the network.…”

With the rapid development of the world city network, the traditional location theory has gradually been disproven, and the advantages of the flow space over the traditional vertical organizational structure are gradually being revealed. Therefore, from corporate branch networks and corporate investment networks, 21 cities in urban agglomerations of Guangdong are taken as case studies for this paper. Furthermore, in this paper, 5 representative types of corporate contact data (catering service, financial service, life service, sports and leisure and accommodation service) are selected, the social network analysis (SNA) method is used to quantitatively analyze the network structure characteristics of urban agglomerations, and a spatial interaction model is constructed to explore the factors influencing. The results indicate that secondary networks have developed in Guangdong. The financial service network is the most complex, followed by the life services, sports and leisure and catering networks. The accommodation service network structure is the simplest. Among all kinds of networks, Guangzhou and Shenzhen have the highest status. The catering and accommodation corporations in Yangjiang in the west have a relatively major external development. Shantou in the east has many branches of various types, while most of the capital exchange in the region is concentrated in Heyuan and Qingyuan in the north. The coefficients of geographical proximity and the urban development level play a significant role in promoting the development of networks. However, administrative capacity limits the attractiveness of origin cities to a certain extent.

The purpose of this study was to determine fishermen’s perceptions about the importance of children’s formal education, and the factors that influence fishermen’s perceptions. The data were collected by observation, interviews, and documentation. The subject of this study was parents and children who continue their education and those who are not. The study showed that there are still parents who think that education is not important. It is a waste of time, money, energy and thought. Education is considered a way to get a job, even though it can also be by helping parents to work. Besides, there are also some parents who think that education is very important for their children’s future. The factors that influence the fishermen’s perception are parental education, inadequate economics, environment and parent’s motivation.

“…Research shows that medical facilities and medical staff in the community can promote the improvement of community-based health levels and disease prevention; effectively improve per capita health levels and the utilization rate of medical care 49 ; build a social knowledge network on environment and health; enhance residents' sense of participation. 50 Community public health intervention measures should not only focus on the construction of a healthy living environment but also pay attention to guiding residents' health behaviour, which is the key to promoting the quality of the living environment and the construction of resilient communities. 51 In addition, the gradual increase of population density in urban residential areas will affect residents' physical and mental health as well as the community's social management to a certain extent.…”

Nowadays, urban and community resilience have become the core issues of urban theoretical research and construction practices. While there are many studies on climate change, natural hazards and environmental pollution, relatively less attention has been paid to public and human health. However, the current COVID-19 pandemic, which is a major global public health crisis, is posing severe challenges to the resilience of cities and communities in the context of high-mobility, high-density and high-intensity, as well as expands the connotation of community resilience to public health. To compensate for the lack of current research, this study examined the characteristics of community medical facilities in response to pandemics at urban, community and individual multi-spatial scales based on a thorough review of current research and relevant practice. It also emphasized the significant role played by community medical facilities in improving resilient community constructions in the face of large-scale public health emergencies. These characteristics were fully utilized to explore ways to build and govern the ‘resilience' of communities in the future, help people to survive better as well as develop in complex and changeable external environments.
