World Review 2022
Fairchild TV1 | Dec 27 (Tuesday) | 9:50pm

 

2022 was a restless year, with nonstop natural and human initiated disasters, and a number of major news events occurring. The most impactfulwas the invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops, causing considerable upheaval in Europe. Tensions in Northeast Asia continue as North Korea keeps testing its missiles, posing a threat to the neighbouring regions. Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’sassassination shocked the world. Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-reigning British monarch in history, died at the age of 96 and was mourned by millions of people. Even though the pandemic is not yet over, worldwide nations are easing the COVID measures and trying to coexist with the virus.

Finance Review 2022
Fairchild TV1 | Dec 28 (Wednesday) | 11pm

 

The Russia-Ukraine war triggered a global energy crisis and inflation, which not only led to energy shortages in Europe but global food crises. Countries all over the world raised their interest rates in response to the pressure of inflation, resulting in expected global economic recessions. The unreasonable rise in international prices caused Sri Lanka to declare bankruptcy, setting offpanics in the new emerging markets. With the U.S. Federal Reserve Board repeatedly raising interest rates, the global economic situation is trending towards recession. The bankruptcy of FTX, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange, has seriously impacted investors’ confidence in cryptocurrencies, symbolizing the risk of a financial bubble burst.

China Review 2022
Fairchild TV1 | Dec 29 (Thursday) | 9:50pm

 

China's “dynamic zero-Covid” policy and strict quarantine measures toward COVID-19 have brought about public discontent and damagedthe country's economic development and foreign exports. With the China real estate market bursting into flames one after another, the wave of real estate closures has left a bunch of unfinished constructions. The massive layoffs of technology companies were followed by social anxiety and even affected China's political situation. As the 20th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party closed, a new generation of leaders emerged, and Xi Jinping officially began his third term. Confronted bythe mass protests against the pandemic measures, the authorities finally decided to lift some restrictions to rescue the economy and regain public confidence. How will the demise of the previous leader Jiang Zemin impact the Chinese political scene?

Canada put in great efforts to tackle several significant events in 2022. Among them, inflation and escalating consumer price index are the most concerning to Canadians. The central bank has increased interest rates to suppress inflation, resulting in irregular fluctuations in the housing market. The war between Russia and Ukraine also causes rising oil prices, adding more burdensto the nation's economy. In terms of COVID-19, the pandemic is stabilizing, and many restrictions have been lifted. Canadians can finally restore their pre-pandemic life. On the political side, the Federal Conservative Party has elected Pierre Poilievre as its new leader who is considered a strong contender against the Prime Minister. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and several ministers attended the parliamentary hearing on the activation of the Emergencies Act. Furthermore, on the matter of diplomatic affairs, the meeting between Justin Trudeau and Chinese President Xi Jinping at the G20 summit did not go well, and the federal government later announced the Indo-Pacific strategy, which was said to be targeted towards China. In addition, several provinces have changed their governors this year, including Ontario and British Columbia. Vancouver welcomes its first Chinese mayor in the city's history. The National Premiers meeting demanded more in funding for health care services, and the federal government increased immigration quotas, all of which have far-reaching implications for Canadians.

Hong Kong Review 2022
Fairchild TV1 | Jan 5 (Thursday) | 9:50pm

The fifth wave of COVID pandemic devastated Hong Kong early this year. The government implemented a "vaccine pass" and multiple regulatory measures, and the spread of COVID finally slowed down after several months. During the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the HKSAR government, Chinese President Xi Jinpingjoined the celebration and the inaugural ceremony of the sixth-term government in Hong Kong. The new Chief Executive, Mr. John Lee Ka Chiu, was sworn in on the same day. He was dedicated an important role in re-establishing Hong Kong's economy and maintaining social stability.

After returning to the grand stage last year, Miss Chinese Vancouver Pageant resumed as a spectacular charity gala in 2022.While generous donors, families and friends of the contestants were on site to cheer for them, audiences and the girls were drawn closer together. Proceeds from the fund-raising initiative will benefit the Alzheimer Society of BC, which serves the Chinese community by providing education, information, research and support to patients and families. The Miss Chinese Vancouver Pageant 2022 has brought firm belief and endless hope for eight courageous and gorgeous young ladies to realize their dreams at this dazzling annual extravaganza. The profound meaning of the theme "Reignite" symbolizes a re-embankment of a whole new journey after the pandemic. This theme was manifested throughout the grand finale as it reignited the emotional intensity of all participating units onstage and behind the scenes.

The two charismatic emcees, Brian Chiu, and Fred Liu partnered excellently together while they boosted up the vibe in the entire venue with endless fun and wits. Fairchild Television was honored to invite UBC Division of Neurology Professor Dr. Robin Hsiung, renowned conductor Mr. Jack Zhang, Miss Chinese Vancouver Pageant and Miss Chinese International Pageant Champion Ms. Gloria Tang and media specialist Ms. Ivy Chau to form a panel of judges to nominate the champion and winners of various awards this year.

The touching story incorporating a variety of dynamic performances put their extraordinary talents on display. From musical instruments such as singing, Pipa, and Guzheng to compelling acts like dancing, Pilates, boxing, and a marriage of ventriloquism with rap, eight girls miraculous conjured up more than ten different pieces, triggering excitement and thunderous applause from the audiences.

The finalists then appeared fresh and young in their swimsuits with irresistible charm ready for the Q&A segment. All tough questions were answered with extreme confidence and no hesitation!

0% cure. 100% courage. Telethon for Alzheimer’s month of giving raises over $202,000

12/08/2022

Besides raising awareness of dementia, the month of giving fundraising initiative organized by the Alzheimer Society of B.C. in November also gathered everyone in the Chinese community to participate in a series of fundraising activities and raised more than $202,000. Proceeds will help the Alzheimer Society of B.C. provide programs, education and support services to the community, as well as support dementia research.

Although there is no cure today, we can encourage community members to find different ways to care for the people affected by dementia, so that they have more courage to face the future. During the month-long fundraising initiative, the Alzheimer Society of B.C. connects with the Chinese community through different channels to bring the community closer than ever. The Alzheimer Society has again partnered with Fairchild Television to co-produce the 3rd annual Telethon for Alzheimer's TV fundraising program. In addition to providing a variety of information about dementia, there were interviews with doctors, dementia researchers and family caregivers, and more. Among the interviewees, Eric Li, a caregiver, shared his courageous story of caring for his mother, who is living with frontotemporal dementia. Watch his story here: alzbc.org/ericstory.

The Alzheimer Society also invited Dr. Roger Wong as a special guest to the radio and TV programs to share his experience communicating with people with dementia and their families and discuss the impact between the ageing population and dementia. The Miss Chinese Vancouver Pageant 2022 charity gala dinner was the grand finale—a wonderful time to witness the birth of a new rising star, and at the same time, the Chinese Advisory Committee had the opportunity to announce the total fundraising amount.

"The Alzheimer Society of B.C. is delighted to be Fairchild Media Group's charity partner for this year's event. Your support and contribution towards helping to create awareness of dementia in the Chinese community is incredibly meaningful and has had a real impact," says Jen Lyle, CEO of the Alzheimer Society of B.C. She also thanked all the dedicated volunteers on the Chinese Advisory Committee for their hard work organizing various fundraising initiatives this month.

The Alzheimer Society of B.C would also like to thank other supporters, including media partners, sponsors, donors and volunteers. Special thanks to the anonymous donors who generously matched, dollar for dollar, the first $75,000 donated.

To show appreciation to the donors, from now until December 31, anyone who donates $50 or more will receive a Telethon for Alzheimer's reusable shopping bag; donations of $100 or more will receive a locally handmade scented sachet as a souvenir. Quantities are limited while supplies last.

Year-end Interview with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau

12/06/2022

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau previously sat down with Fairchild TV News and Current Affairs department at a Chinese restaurant in Aberdeen Centre for a year-end interview covering international and livelihood issues. On the recent announcement of the federal government's Indo-Pacific strategy, Trudeau emphasized that the main objective is not to distance ourselves from China but explore new collaboration opportunities with other Indo-Pacific countries. Trudeau acknowledged that China remains Canada's second-largest trading partner. Through Chinese immigrants in Canada, the two countries have established a solid and close tie in terms of family bonding and ongoing business exchanges. However, he also pointed out that Canada’s interests will not always be aligned with China's perspectives. The sooner both parties recognise the differences, the more likely a mutually beneficial partnership will be identified. Trudeau saw opportunities to work with China in many areas, such as climate change and environmental protection. On the other hand, the meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the G20 summit did not end well. Trudeau believed that diplomatic dialogue is always difficult, and it is necessary to build a constructive relationship based on the Canadian values. Trudeau also provided a detailed response on the questions of inflation, economic recession, the pros and cons of expanding immigration policies, the influence of foreign governments on national politics, health care funding, housing and carbon tax, and other critical issues Canadians are concerned about. Please stay tuned to this week's Magazine 26 for more.

Russia began to invade neighbouring Ukraine on February 24. A massive fleet of Russian armoured vehicles advanced towards Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine. Confronting Ukraine's tenacious resistance, President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, even issued a threat of nuclear weapons. The Ukrainian authorities stated that the war had caused thousands of civilian casualties. The United Nations Refugee Agency reported that over a million people had fled Ukraine, and this number is projected to reach 4 million. Aside from Ukraine and Russia, Canada has the largest number of residents of Ukrainian descent.

Canada's Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship department has announced that it will take additional steps to process applications from Ukraine urgently.
