    CULTURE AND SPORT Culture and Sport Eastern and western cultures have co-existed in Macao for over 400 years. A wide variety of cultural traditions, languages, values, religious beliefs, and customs have all existed side by side and influenced one another. Out of this melting pot, a regional culture unique to Macao has gradually developed into its present richness. Macao’s culture is thus a diverse mixture, with traditional Chinese culture as its heart, and it has assimilated Western, particularly Portuguese, cultural influences in perfect harmony. Following its policy of promoting Chinese culture while preserving the unique pluralistic cultural heritage of Macao, the Government has hosted various cultural and artistic activities invited art troupes from mainland China and overseas, as well as Macao, to perform. These have created opportunities for audiences to learn more about the history, society, and culture of different regions, as well as enhancing cultural exchange and the quality of cultural life of Macao’s residents. Cultural Affairs Bureau The Cultural Affairs Bureau is a Government department that sets out the Government’s key objectives in cultural matters. The bureau is responsible for protecting cultural heritage, giving guidance on aesthetic appreciation, supporting community organisations, nurturing talent in arts and culture, developing local cultural industries, as well as organising cultural entertainment programmes, such as concerts, exhibitions, seminars, music classes, dance, drama courses, Macao International Parade, Macao International Music Festival, Macao Arts Festival, Macao City Fringe Festival, China Cultural Heritage Day, Macao Youth Music Competition and Macao Annual Visual Arts Exhibition. It also provides subsidies for different cultural and art programmes as well as scholarships to support the publication of research and advanced studies about arts.

  • Sporting Kc's Ribeiro on American Youth Soccer
    Coaches need to put the development of their players first — ahead of their own desires to win or make a name for themselves. Michel Ribeiro Technical Coach Sporting Kansas City SPORTING KC’S RIBEIRO ON AMERICAN YOUTH SOCCER – WHAT’S RIGHT & WHAT’S WRONG Diane Scavuzzo January 2, 2018 Sporting KC’s Academy Technical Coach Michel Ribeiro on Youth Soccer While the diverse landscape of player development may be littered with an abundance of trails in search of the holy grail of success, for a player to have real success, there must be an experienced leader involved. The zenith of player development is the experienced technical coach, especially one with a proven track record. The MLS Development Academy at Sporting Kansas City is highly respected and added Michel Ribeiro as Technical Coach in 2017. From Belgium, Ribeiro is a passionate and knowledgeable soccer expert who has already developed top talent into highly successful professionals — and now wants to turn his attention and talents to helping players in the USA. What do Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne, Atlético Madrid’s Yannick Carrasco and Liverpool’s Divock Origi have in common? They all trained under Technical Coach Michel Ribeiro. Regardless of a player’s natural ability and passionate work ethic, the most important part of the journey for a talented young soccer player in search of reaching their potential and dreaming of becoming a professional — is the technical coach. Sporting KC’s Academy Technical Coach Michel Ribeiro. with Jon Parry at the DA Showcase Last April, Ribero joined Sporting KC Academy as Technical Coach — leaving Koninklijke Racing Club Genk, the Belgian professional football club based in the city of Genk after 14 years.

  • Ms Ng Wing-Mui DOCTOR of HUMANITIES Honoris Causa Citation
    Ms Ng Wing-mui DOCTOR OF HUMANITIES honoris causa Citation Ms Ng Wing-mui, well known as “Mui E” (Auntie Mui), is a master singer in both Cantonese operatic song yuetkuk and Cantonese narrative singing naamyam. Mui E began singing these two genres in her teens. Having been a professional singer since she was seven, Mui E made a name when she was thirteen. Since the 1930s, she has made music with all of the celebrated artists of Cantonese music of the time. With eighty years of practice and performance experience, Mui E excels in the two genres of yuetkuk and naamyam and is now considered a grand master artist of shiniang qiang (style of the blind female singers). In her early years she learnt from gushi (blind male singers) Liu Jiu and shiniang Renxin and Yinjiao, capturing the essence of Cantonese naamyam singing. In addition to being a gifted singer, Mui E is also a very talented instrumental performer. She is especially skilled in two musical instruments, the long-neck plucked lute qinqin and the hammered dulcimer yangqin. In the late 1930s and early 1940s, the prominent Hong Kong Cantonese musician, Siu Tit- hung, composed the famous piece “Flowing Water and Moving Clouds”. Chan Luk-ping of Macau set this melody with lyrics and turned it into a well-known piece of Cantonese operatic song yuetkuk, “My Man Returns Late”. At thirteen, Mui E premiered the song and immediately gained a reputation in Hong Kong and Macau. Knowing of Mui E’s talent and fame, Siu went to Macau and played his musical instruments to Mui E’s singing.
