A new ranking has revealed the cities with the highest percentage of millionaires. At 2.58 per cent, about 1 in 38 Hong Kong residents is a millionaire, slightly lower than Singapore's 2.80 percent.

  • Music-Based TV Talent Shows in China: Celebrity and Meritocracy in the Post-Reform Society
    Music-Based TV Talent Shows in China: Celebrity and Meritocracy in the Post-Reform Society by Wei Huang B. A., Huaqiao University, 2013 Extended Essays Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the School of Communication (Dual Degree in Global Communication) Faculty of Communication, Art & Technology © Wei Huang 2015 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2015 Approval Name: Wei Huang Degree: Master of Arts (Communication) Title: Music-Based TV Talent Shows in China: Celebrity and Meritocracy in the Post-Reform Society Examining Committee: Program Director: Yuezhi Zhao Professor Frederik Lesage Senior Supervisor Assistant Professor School of Communication Simon Fraser University Baohua Wang Supervisor Professor School of Communication Communication University of China Date Defended/Approved: August 31, 2015 ii Abstract Meritocracy refers to the idea that whatever our social position at birth, society should offer the means for those with the right “talent” to “rise to top.” In context of celebrity culture, it could refer to the idea that society should allow all of us to have an equal chance to become celebrities. This article argues that as a result of globalization and consumerism in the post-reform market economy, the genre of music-based TV talent shows has become one of the most popular TV genres in China and has at the same time become a vehicle of a neoliberal meritocratic ideology. The rise of the ideology of meritocracy accompanied the pace of market reform in post-1980s China and is influenced by the loss of social safety nets during China’s transition from a socialist to a market economy.

  • 许环良) Is Perhaps Best Known As the Record Producer Who Launched the Successful Careers of Singapore Singing Artistes Kit Chan ( 陈洁仪), JJ Lin (林俊杰), A-Do ( 阿杜), and BY2
    ARTICLE Billy Koh ( 许 环 良): The Butterfly and Its Dreams by Kong, Kam Yoke , written on 20th August 2010 National Library Board, Singapore Billy Koh, who has helped re-shape the Singapore Chinese pop music scene over the last 25 years, is best known as the record producer who launched the successful careers of Singapore singers Kit Chan, JJ Lin, A-Do and BY2. Considered one of the most instrumental and influential figures in the Singapore music industry, Billy Koh ( 许环良) is perhaps best known as the record producer who launched the successful careers of Singapore singing artistes Kit Chan ( 陈洁仪), JJ Lin (林俊杰), A-Do ( 阿杜), and BY2. As the most recognised face from Ocean Butterflies Music Pte Ltd ( 海蝶音乐私人有限公 司), which Koh co-founded, he had, together with his team, re-shaped the landscape of the Singapore Chinese pop music scene over a span of a quarter of a century, carving a place for itself and creating a brand name that exerts an impact in Asia. In his nearly three-decade-long career, Koh has produced more than 150 albums and is credited for discovering and grooming many top artistes who made it big in Asia. For his contributions to the Singapore music industry, Koh was awarded the Meritorious Award and the Wings of Excellence Award by COMPASS in 2001 and 2005 respectively. It had all begun in 1981. Billy Koh had formed a singing group called The Straw ( 水草三重唱), together with his schoolmates, Koh Nam Seng ( 许南盛) and the late Sunkist Ng ( 黄元成), to participate in the television talent show “Chinese Talentime” ( 《斗歌竞艺》), which was one of the most watched shows then.

    THURSDAY, JUNE 11, 2015 Music LIFE! C9 2000s: Then and now Musicians who lead in the classical scene Paige Lim Over the years, many Singaporean classical musicians who studied abroad have remained over- seas to pursue their careers. Renowned violinist Chan Yoong-Han and pianist Lim Yan are among the rare few who have returned here to develop their careers. And over the past 10 or more years, the pair have made waves in the local classical music scene. Besides being members of popular piano quintet Take 5, both have played as soloists with the Singa- pore Symphony Orchestra and performed in inter- national music festivals. Life! classical music reviewer Chang Tou Liang calls them “two of the most active and busiest classical musicians” in Singapore today. “They are leaders in their fields and figures whom young Singaporean musicians can relate to and emulate,” he says. Both musicians came to prominence in the 2000s after returning to Singapore from their over- seas studies. A graduate from Rice University in the United States in 1995, Chan, 40, was awarded the 2000 Shell-NAC Arts Scholarship by the National Arts Council. He then completed his masters of music at the University of Massachusetts. In 2007, he was appointed concertmaster for the Singapore Festival Orchestra, the resident orches- tra of the Singapore Arts Festival which ended in 2012. Lim, 35, the nephew of well-known conductor Lim Yau, was the first Singaporean to play in the 12th Singapore International Piano Festival in 2005. He made history again when he became the Violinist Chan first Singaporean pianist to perform all five Yoong-Han About Sing50 Beethoven piano concertos in a cycle here in 2012.
