Veteran singer Fei Yu-ching, 63, affectionately known as “Xiao Ge” (literally “Little Brother”), stunned showbiz last week by announcing he is set to retire soon following a farewell concert tour. The tour will include five shows at the Taipei Arena and another two shows at the K-Arena scheduled for February and May next year.
Following in the footsteps of his older sister, singer Jenny Fei — now a nun named Master Hengshu — Fei began his singing career at the age of 17. He went on to greatly expand his fan base by hosting variety shows with his elder brother, TV show host Chang Fei. With a career spanning over four decades, he is one of the most celebrated Taiwanese artists in the Chinese world.
In his statement, Fei wrote that it is time for him to slow down, so he can learn how to enjoy his life in relative peace and quiet.

六十三歲的資深歌手「小哥」費玉清，上週宣布他將於告別巡迴演唱會結束後退休，消息一出震撼娛樂圈！巡演預計會在明年二月和五月，在台北小巨蛋熱唱五場、高雄巨蛋兩場。
費玉清十七歲時，在他的姊姊、現稱恆述法師的歌手費貞綾帶領之下進入歌壇。之後更因為和他的哥哥、電視主持人張菲主持綜藝節目大幅擴展粉絲群。小哥縱橫歌壇四十多年，是華人世界最著名的台灣藝人之一。
他在聲明稿中表示，這是他該停下的時候了，停下來才能學習從容地品味人生。

China commemorated 80 years since the end of World War II last week with a massive military parade against a backdrop of a disputed history about who ultimately defeated Japan. The issues, including Japan’s reckoning with its wartime record in China, are bound to flare again in December, a flashpoint anniversary of the mass killing in Nanjing by invading Japanese troops. Below is an explainer about what the different — and disputed — points of view are. WHAT IS CHINA’S VIEW? For the Chinese government sitting in Beijing, this is a clear-cut issue: China sacrificed 35 million people in a heroic and brutal struggle
Rarely does Nature present such a striking contradiction as the one found in Lencois Maranhenses National Park. Located along Brazil’s northeastern coast, the park unveils breathtaking scenery, where rippling sands meet crystal-clear lagoons. Under the sun’s golden glow, the waters glitter in shades of turquoise and emerald. So surreal is this spectacle that visitors might wonder if they’re gazing at a digitally modified photo rather than a living landscape. Were it not for the unique geographical and climatic conditions, such a marvel would not exist. Unlike typical deserts, Lencois Maranhenses receives a substantial amount of rainfall, particularly during the rainy season
In a major step to combat carbon emissions, Norway’s pioneering “Northern Lights project” is set to expand its carbon capture and storage (CCS) capabilities. Backed by energy giants and the Norwegian government, this collaborative project is working to increase its annual carbon storage capacity from 1.5 million to over five million tons. Northern Lights focuses on capturing CO2 emissions from industrial sources across Europe and securely storing them underground. Captured CO2 will be liquefied and transported by ship to the storage facility located off the coast of Norway. It will be injected through pipes into geological formations about 2,600m below the
