From the Editor: A warm welcome to a new year
Here’s a note from Gonçalo César de Sá, Macao Magazine’s Editor‑in‑Chief, for the January issue.
Making greater strides
Macao’s Chief Executive talks about co-operation, bilateral development and the COVID-19 pandemic during his four-day trip to the Greater Bay Area.
Outstanding bravery
People, teams and organisations in Macao who have worked immensely hard and shown incredible courage during the COVID-19 pandemic are given special awards by the Chief Executive and his government.
Sister of devotion
Tributes have rolled in since the death of Sister Juliana Devoy last month. Macao has said goodbye to a missionary who ‘led a life of fighting for others’ – principally, fellow women.
Dressed to empress
The Macao Museum of Art showcases some of the most beautiful costumes and accessories that were once worn by China’s emperors and empresses.
Keeping you posted
Wander through a wonderful world of old postcards at this exciting – and interactive – Macao Museum exhibition.
Thinking outside the books
Running an independent bookstore in Macao in 2021 is challenging to say the least. But some of these shops have been coming up with unique ways to help get the customers in so they can survive.
Running the show
Over the past decade, the Macau Glee Club has grown out of the living room of its founder into a magnificent theatrical beast. Refusing to let the pandemic prevent its performers from treading the boards, its 10th year was its biggest yet – and its organisers are looking forward to even more drama in the future.
State of the art
Many painters – whether born and bred in the city or residing here later in life – have lived, worked and created beautiful pieces of art in Macao. We choose the 16 most recognisable painting talents from over hundreds of years of art history.
The digital revolution
E-commerce and digital payments in Portuguese-speaking countries and Macao are booming right now as a result of the pandemic. But what does this mean for the future economic development of these nations and for Macao’s place at the heart of the Lusophone world?
