Similarly, Bairoch(1973) lamented the development of an "over一distended tertiary”一encompassing services and commerce-that threatened to undermine national development plans by placing a drag on the economy. Why this growth was occurring despite expectations to the contrary was little considered, however, beyond suggestions of cultural and educational backwardness. It is interesting to remark on McGee's (1973) study on street vending in Hong Kong, a rapidly industrializing colony at the time. He notes that industrialists appealed to the colonial administration to repress street vending because of a labor shortage in the growing industrial sector at the time, attacking vendors for their "laziness" in choosing street vending over factory work. The fact is, McGee points out, that street vendors simply felt they could earn more on the streets than in the wage sector. In my own research vendors have many times claimed that street vending is also a life style choice, allowing them greater personal freedom and flexibility.
