People born in the year of the rooster love to be in the spotlight, and for good reason — they are always immaculately groomed and well-dressed. You will seldom see them looking unkempt. They are loyal and honest, and make excellent friends. Rooster people have a strong romantic spirit, which comes to the fore when they are in love. They can sometimes be too honest, and should learn to hold their tongues instead of offending people.

Tangbao are served in a bamboo steamer in which they are steamed, not only adding to the visual appearance, but ensuring they do not get cold before reaching the table. The best way to enjoy a tangbao is to dip it in a mixture of vinegar and soy sauce with
The Bank of Japan (BoJ) announced a seismic change in direction on March 19, hiking interest rates for the first time in 17 years. The move represents an unwinding of an ultra-loose — and maverick -- policy aimed at putting Japan’s “lost decades” of stagnation and deflation behind it.
