EDITOR’S LETTER

This month, we venture to the most northern parts of China on an adventure with the Snow Dragon Trip (pages 8 and 9). There was Siberian Tiger feeding and ice palace visiting at the world’s largest snow and ice festival in Harbin, along with skiing in Yabuli, China’s premier ski resort, and a trip to the border between China and North Korea. If you are looking for an authentic, adventurous and fun experience this winter, then there is nothing more fitting than the Snow Dragon Trip (www.thedragontrip. com). Sherry Poon from Wobabybasics (www.wobabybasics.com) tells us why organic cotton is so important and why she insisted on using the material for her children’s apparel company (page 7). We also discover how to naturally boost our immunity with nutritionist, Jessica E Simkin (page 12). During the winter months, it is easy to feel under the weather, but with a few simple changes to our diet and lifestyle, we might be able to stave off the common cold. This month, we travelled to the island of Zanzibar (page 18). Although only 20 kilometers from Tanzania, Zanzibar was ruled by foreign powers for centuries and offers a unique mix of customs and cultures to all visitors. We also explored the east coast of Malaysia by car (page 16) where we stopped at the most beautiful beaches, exciting tourist attractions and best restaurants along the way. Finally, this month our supplement focuses on MICE (page 21) and, as always, we have the latest hotel news, food and drink deals as well as our essential listings at the back (pages 34 onwards). Now, let’s Talk!

Your news round-up for the month of November

City In Bloom

Train Spotters Rejoice

Take the opportunity to head down to Shanghai Botanical Garden (1111 Longwu Lu, near Baise Lu. Tel: 5436 3369. Web: www.shbg.org) and see the beautiful cherry blossoms in full bloom between now and December. Thanks to a wet summer and warm autumn, the blossoms are a particular delight this year.

If you are a railway aficionado, be sure to check out the brand new Shanghai Metro Museum, where you can learn about the history of the underground and even ride in a virtual simulator. In even better news, the museum is free to visit on Tuesdays but you will pay an entrance fee of RMB 15 on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. You win some you lose some…

Trampled By Tourists?

If you felt that the city was especially overrun during Golden Week holidays last month, you would be right. Shanghai welcomed 8.8 million tourists during the holiday, up 15.8% on the same period last year! Although this may be good for the local economy, with tourism revenue estimated at RMB 8.26 billion, it might be better to leave the city for calmer shores next year.

Air Pollution Dropping

In the first half of 2014, PM2.5 density, the main measure for air pollution, dropped by 7.9 percent in 74 major Chinese cities, compared to the same period of time last year. What’s more, at the beginning of last month, Shanghai introduced “China’s strictest air protection law”, with fines as high as RMB 500000, five times the previous level. We are glad to see an improvement being made to increase quality of life in the city.

OPINION: GUEST COLUMN

Organic Cotton Matters: Discover (And Make) The Difference Sherry Poon

It was never a question on whether to use 100% organic versus conventional cotton for my brand, Wobabybasics. The question was: Do I use organic cotton from China?

t’s a well known fact, as a natural fibre, you can’t beat cotton. It is soft, breathable and one of the most comfortable fibres available. That is why cotton, for fabric, has been used since prehistoric times, and is used for clothes, towels, bedding and other items that we put next to our skin everyday. As it happens, conventional cotton farming is one of the most environmentally destructive agricultural practices that harm the air, water, soil and many living things, including farmers and you, the end user. If you are not convinced, let's look at the numbers. Currently, over 24.3 million tons of cotton are used globally per year, with China being the world’s top cotton consumer. Conventional cotton takes up to ten per cent of all agricultural chemicals and 25 per cent of insecticides on three per cent of total global farmland (this is more than any other crop per unit). That breaks down to an astonishing 150 grams of chemicals being used in the production of each cotton T-shirt. These facts are enough to make any parent uneasy when you consider that a baby's skin is five times thinner and more porous than an adult’s, making it more susceptible to absorbing toxins. In fact, it takes ten years for a child's skin to completely build up their defensive mechanisms. Thankfully, organically grown cotton is the alternative – cotton that is grown from untreated, non-genetically modified seeds, and without chemical fertilisers, defoliants, pesticides, herbicides or other nastiness at any point during its growth and production. On the surface, positive signs are being seen in China for organic cotton production. As well as being the world’s top consumer of cotton, China jumped to second place for organic cotton production in 2013. Farmers in China, in particular in Xinjiang, have been growing organic cotton since 2001. Organic farming takes more time, requires more knowledge and skill and, for now, costs more. But the benefits are also high – yield is high and the quality of cotton grown is equal to or better than conventionally grown cotton. Organic methods support biodiversity and healthy eco systems, improve soil quality and reduce energy and water usage.

Stacked up against certification integrity and high costs, I chickened out and import GOTS certified organic cotton from Turkey. But, go ahead, take action, demand organic cotton and support your favourite local eco brands to improve the prospects of those organic cotton farmers up in Xinjiang. I dare you… In China, organic cotton use started with passionate pioneers, but global clothing giants like H&M, C&A, Decathlon, Target, Inditex (Zara) and Nike are starting to embrace organic cotton and are the leaders in usage of organic cotton. This should mean that in China, organic fashion will soon catch up to the popularity levels of organic food as concerned consumers learn more about its benefits. So, why did 2013 see a decline in Chinese organic cotton production and more organic cotton farmers investing in more profitable crops like fruits and vegetables? One issue is that these top ten companies using organic cotton are focusing on fast fashion and it is challenging to maintain the view that “organic” still equates with high ethics and quality. At a glance, conventionally grown cotton is hard to distinguish from organically grown cotton. Certification boards, like GOTS and Organic Trade Association, are required to ensure that what consumers are getting remains organic and ethically made from farm to production to retailer to consumer. All too often farmers have limited finances and government subsidy, and these certification costs are too high. There is currently a lack of knowledge and support to implement a holistic approach and biodiversity principles in farm production. Farmers are very susceptible to the financial and environmental risks of mono-agriculture. The organic cotton price tends to be market-driven, and farmers sometimes are forced to sell their organic as conventional due to uncompetitive price offers. The organic cotton industry is also challenged with shortages and high prices due to government stockpiling, lack of availability of quality seeds and a missmatch between supply and demand. With these issues unresolved, it’s not likely that large or small companies would risk making longterm investment in organic cotton in China. What’s the solution? Collaboration is the key – working in partnership with branding experts, local communities and governments to allow organic cotton to realise its full potential.

In 2001, after working on various low-cost housing and sustainable design projects in

Canada, Australia and Thailand, Sherry Poon settled in Shanghai. After the birth of her first daughter, Sherry started Wobabybasics (www. wobabybasics.com) where she combines her passions as an architect, environmentalist and parent to re-create children’s apparel with 100% certified organic cotton, nostalgic styling and modern practicality. Sherry is also involved with community projects in Shanghai, including the Eco Design Fair (www.ecodesignfair.cn) and the GOOD Gift Fair (goodgiftfair.com).

hen it comes to travelling around China the well trodden, whilst still awe-inspiring, trails such as the Badaling section of the Great Wall of China, Shanghai’s Bund and the Terracotta Warriors are still at the top of most people’s to do list. However, if you don’t particularly want to join throngs of sightseers traipsing around the typical tourist hotspots, listed as “must see” in every guidebook ever printed, then opt for a snow-filled trip, with off the beaten path destinations in China’s frigid Northeast. A two-week tour with The Snow Dragon Trip gives thrill seekers the opportunity to see Siberian tigers, visit the world’s biggest ice festival and tackle some of China’s only ski slopes. The organised tour is a cheap, safe and fun way to tour Dongbei with likeminded travellers and, because they have been running the tour for four years, they have had the time to discover the very best route. China loves its superlatives; “world’s fastest trains”, “world’s longest bridge”, “world’s biggest building”, so when we kicked off our trip at the “world’s largest snow and ice festival” in Harbin, Heilongjiang, we weren’t so much surprised, as we were amazed. Since 1985, Harbin has hosted its annual ice festival and it sure does take it seriously. The ice festival is truly breathtaking in every sense of the phrase. After catching your breath, given the chilly temperature with the mercury dropping to as low as minus 30, the over-the-top displays, boasting more than 6.5 million square feet of LED illuminated buildings replete with a replica of the Roman Coliseum, Empire State Building and massive – and we do mean MASSIVE – ice slides, does not disappoint. It’s definitely one of those attractions that pictures cannot really do any justice to; you just have to see it for yourself. The trip definitely delivered in terms of adventure and nature on our very first few days in Harbin. We were treated to a roam through the Siberian wilderness, safari style, exploring the Siberian Tiger Park. The sprawling nature reserve is home to more than 800 Siberian tigers as well as white tigers, lynx, black pumas, lions and snow leopards. We followed up sightings of the world’s biggest cats with a visit to the Polar Aquarium housing Narwhals, Polar Bears and Belugas. Seeing this many exotic polar animals in China was definitely unexpected and a bonus for nature lovers. Next on the agenda was a short stay in China’s “premier” ski resort, Yabuli. Yabuli is rather different to any other ski resort we’ve ever been to. Like many new, outdoor sporting activities, skiing is a relatively new trend in China. Luckily, Chinese people don’t let

any inhibitions hinder their time on the slopes and are perfectly happy to fling themselves down the mountain strapped on to brand new skis. Welcome news for visitors who aren’t ski savvy. One of the most unique experiences during our stay in Dongbei was the accommodation. We stayed in a traditional farmhouse, snuggled up on a customary kang. This type of bed, heated from underneath by either coal or wood, has its origins going as far back as 7000 years. It’s perfect for those chilly winter nights, making snuggling up close to your newly made travel buddies an inviting and cosy experience (sharing a bed was not actually compulsory). Halfway through our trip, we hopped on a night train and headed towards China’s most northerly point, the arctic village of Mohe. The train journey itself allowed us to grasp the vast expanse of China, and brought us within a figurative stone’s throw of Russia. We passed the time drinking and playing cards with friendly locals who welcomed us into their group; a privilege we paid for the next day, as we nursed throbbing hangovers. Mohe is famed for being the only area in China where you are able to see the awe inspiring Northern lights. In temperatures that were a steady minus 30, which dropped to minus 45 at night, we were able to join locals in their daily chores and get first hand experience of just how extreme their lives really are. The doggedness of these local people was proven to us later that evening when one of the locals, slightly stewed on an evil concoction of baijiu mixed with fruit (ostensibly to mask the task of this foul liquor), challenged a member of the group to stand topless out in the snow! After having made it out alive from temperatures that literally turn boiling water into ice pellets mid-air, we made our way to Dandong for a truly eerie experience. Dandong, situated on the border between China and North Korea, was masked in a dim and chilly fog, creating an almost palpable feeling of tension in the air. Seeing ruins and relics of the Korean War, including the Sino-Korean Friendship Bridge over the Yalu River, served as a reminder of how closely the two countries are connected. When we took a stroll along the river, we were able to catch an occasional glimpse of movement and activity on the North Korean side. At night, however, the North Korean side is devoid of life, and is in stark contrast to the

engulfing light given off by the ever-expanding sprawl of Dandong. The next day we visited the Tiger Mountain section of the Great Wall, which serves as the physical demarcation of Imperial China, and were able to watch an amazing sunrise over a frozen China. From the visible wall of light separating North Korea and China, to a physical wall made out of bricks, this experience really put into perspective the chasm that has developed between these two neighbours over the last 30 years. Not to be undone, in true winter fashion, Beijing ushered in our arrival under a thick blanket of snow. Exploring the capital during the midst of winter is a totally different experience to visiting during the warmer months. Less crowded in winter, we weren’t accosted with the hassle and tourist traps often prevalent at the cities’ top tourist sites during warmer times of the year. When visiting the Forbidden City, the palatial compound felt isolated and intimate in the icy winds, as if it had been frozen in time, devoid of the typical tourists ambling about its grounds. This two-week, adventure-packed trip offers amazing experiences and memories. The world’s largest ice paradise, drinking with the locals at 5 am on a night train, sleeping in a five-man, coal-stoked bed and feeling the eerie divide between the Middle and Hermit Kingdoms at the border of North Korea, are all memories that will leave a long lasting impression. For anyone who is looking for an out of the ordinary trip and wants to experience “real” China, take a tour with the Snow Dragon Trip this winter. Tour departs on 10 January, 2015 (bookings must be made before 20 December, 2014). Web: www.thedragontrip.com

Ensuring Your Immunity Jessica E Simkin, MSc

Often find yourself sick during these long winter months? Nutrition expert Jessica Simkin offers some helpful tips on staying immune this season.

Staying Active

ave you ever found yourself riding the Metro and felt like just about everyone around you is coughing and sneezing? Winter may be one of the worst times for the spread of cold and flu viruses but that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean that we have to simply succumb to such illnesses. Boosting immunity naturally can go a long way in your quest to staying healthy and help you recover quicker, should you find yourself feeling unwell during this cold spell. There are small but important immune system boosting steps that we can all take and running out for a flu shot or an antibiotic is not what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m suggesting here.

Supporting our lymphatic system is an important element of our staying healthy. Our lymphatic system is considered a secondary circulatory system and is responsible for protecting against infections by removing pathogens and germs. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system does not have a pump and therefore requires movement and exercise to circulate its fluid. Over-exercising can stress our immune systems but under-exercising also negatively affects immunity by allowing the lymph fluid to stagnate. Staying active this winter with gentle forms of exercising like riding a bike to work, walking or practicing yoga will aid the circulation of lymph fluid and help boost immunity.

Vitamin A

The benefits of Vitamin C and its role in boosting immunity is commonly known, so rather than discussing what might already be familiar to many, I want to focus instead on initially raising awareness about Vitamin A, a lesser-known immune booster. Vitamin A and its precursor, beta-carotene, increase white blood cell count, protect against free radicals and help maintain the integrity of the digestive tract and cell walls, all essential for sustaining a strong and healthy body. Betacarotene is found in a variety of yellow, orange and green coloured fruits and vegetables such as spinach, asparagus, carrots, pumpkin, cherries & mango and preformed Vitamin A (from animal sources) can be obtained from egg yolk, liver and dairy products. If taking a Vitamin A supplement, such as cod liver oil, be sure to read the suggested intake, as this fat-soluble vitamin is stored in the body and can be toxic at certain levels. Your best and safest option to ensure that you are getting enough vitamin A is to pay attention to your diet and regularly eat fruits and vegetables that contain beta-carotene.

12 TalkMagazineâ&#x20AC;&#x192;

Garlic

Another food worth eating regularly is garlic. Garlic is a true medicinal food and naturally contains antibacterial, antimicrobial and anti-fungal properties, which help fight infections and kill unwanted germs. Garlic has also been found to lower cholesterol, reduce arterial plaque and lower blood pressure, making it an all-round winner for both immune function and the support of your overall health.

Reducing Stress

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to discuss supporting the immune system without mentioning mental and emotional stress. Stress has been found to reduce the number and function of lymphocyte and natural killer cells, which ultimately leaves us more susceptible to infections and illness. Although it is impossible to completely live stress-free lives, finding ways to reduce and manage stress by doing exercises such as practicing Tai Chi, yoga, meditation or just setting time aside each day to relax is an essential component of beating illness during the cold and flu season.

MONEY TALK

The Markets Are Falling! What Should I Do Now? At the time of writing this article, the global equity markets were in a tailspin. The S&P 500 erased all of its 2014 returns, the European markets were officially in a bear market and the emerging markets were in a free fall. In October, anytime you read the newspaper or turned on a financial news channel there were endless discussions on how Europe was going into a recession, the raising of US interest rates and Ebola. It was difficult not to be concerned.

t’s only natural that many investors are asking: “What should I do now?” Assuming your portfolio is composed of a diversified set of index funds, there are three rational actions to take in response to a falling market, actions that research shows will serve you well in the long run. These are; keep investing, rebalance and, if you are subject to capital gains taxes, realise your losses. But investors are rarely rational. They’re emotional. When there is turbulence in the markets, people typically have one of three emotional responses:

months. But no one can predict the market. Selling to limit your losses is merely market timing by another name and trying to time the market would be a big mistake. When investors try to time the market, they are much more likely to buy and sell at the wrong times. Psychologically, retail investors suffer great pains when negativity is everywhere and stock prices fall. Individuals are more likely to buy when everyone is optimistic and prices are near or at their peak. Investors who try to time the market end up, on average, in the worst of both worlds selling low and buying high.

You want to liquidate everything in an attempt to stem the loss.

You want to bury your head in the sand and avoid looking at your portfolio. This isn’t necessarily a terrible response. Even during the biggest market collapse in recent history (2008-09), holding the same set of investments through the crash and

rebound would have resulted in a return to previous levels, five years later. You want to be opportunistic and buy. If you act rashly on this emotion, you may end up making a mistake, buying so much that you throw your asset allocation off. But it’s great to be comfortable acting in a contrarian way as an investor buying when everyone else is selling. As Warren Buffet once said, “Be greedy when others are fearful”. What You Should Do in a Falling Market? If you want to take advantage of a market decline, the easiest thing to do is keep investing. If you are in the midst of a regular investment schedule, as many of our clients are, you can take advantage of the market’s dip through dollar-cost averaging, or regularly scheduled deposits. Automating your deposit schedule is the best way to ensure that you avoid roller coaster emotions and stick to your longterm plan. The other two ways to take advantage of the falling market are to rebalance and taxloss harvest, if you happen to be in a taxed

account like all of our American clients. Rebalancing your investments maintains your asset allocation, the allocation that is designed to help you meet your longterm goals. Rebalancing is a form of forced contrarianism that takes advantage of reversion to the mean. It buys asset classes that have performed poorly relative to their peers and sells the best performers. In essence, rebalancing forces the investor to buy low and sell high. The result of rebalancing is lower volatility and, often, better returns over time. Tax-loss harvesting, if you are in a taxable account, is a more sophisticated way to take advantage of volatility. By selling assets for a loss, you gain the opportunity to use those losses against other gains for the year on your annual taxes. A similar asset is purchased immediately so that you can participate in any market rebound. Bill Longstreet, is a partner with Caterer Goodman Partners, a primarily fee based financial advisory firm.

A Luxury Health Resort In The Philippines: The Beautiful East

The Farm At San Benito Coast Of Malaysia “ Just relax. All is well…” Nyima Pratten

How elled to the less av tr lk Ta , st oa C t es the W beaches of Penang on s on the East Coast he ac be l, fu ti au be as ly well known, but equal of the country.

fter landing in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s capital city, it is easy to get to the East Coast by car, bus or internal flight. We took a 30-minute flight from the capital to Kuantan, an oil-rich, major city situated on the East Coast. In Kuantan, we rented a car to travel up the East Coast and were amazed by the pristine, sandy white beaches void of people. Along the way, we discovered coves and beaches, seemingly untouched by mankind and teaming with sea life. We planned to stop in local kampongs along the way to sample local food, experience the unique culture and enjoy the beaches. Cherating, about 30km north of Kuantan, is known as the epicentre for Malaysian surfing and populated by a ragtag crew of international and local surfers. In the small village, it is possible to rent surfboards, kite or wind surfing and land sailing equipment as well as stand up paddle boards along with wetsuits or snorkels, for those who are not so coordinated. We rented equipment from Kam's Surf Shack, which also doubles as a bar and a relaxing place to hang out whilst waiting for, or watching, the surfers. The surf breaks far out from the village and offers both experts and beginners the chance to get out onto the waves. Close to the village is a Club Med hotel, for visitors who want a bit of luxury, but there are also plenty of hostels and guesthouses along the small restaurant and bar strip making up the only main road of the small village. Close to Cherating, in Kemaman Terengganu, is the Kemaman Terengganu Turtle Hatchery (Tel: +60139064828). This small hatchery aims to protect green back turtles that lay their eggs on the East Coast beaches. At the hatchery, we saw freshly hatched green back turtles, which we were able to release into the sea that evening. We carried almost 100 freshly hatched turtles to the beach in a shopping basket. When we got to about 10 metres away from the seafront, we placed the basket on the ground and tipped our precious cargo onto the sand in the direction of the waves. Immediately, the go-getters in the group went raring to the front of the pack in a mad dash for the water, whereas some of the slower babies, who we think had been squashed

at the bottom of the basket under the weight of the others, had troubles getting started, seemingly ignoring their natural instinct to head for water. We turned one unfortunate little turtle in the directing of the sea five times and then crossed our fingers. Unfortunately, the giant leather back turtles, which were once prevalent in this area, no longer come to Malaysia’s East Coast to lay their eggs as, previously, the beaches were not protected and locals and tourists alike were able to disturb the female turtles during the intimate moment when they were laying their eggs. This discouraged the turtles from coming back the next year until eventually, no leather back turtles came at all. Now, the local government protects the beaches where the green back turtles lay their eggs. Currently, no one can enter the beach during the night, unless with a guide, so that they cannot disrupt the delicate egg laying process. Although seeing a green back turtle come out of the sea to lay her eggs is not guaranteed, we were lucky enough to see one exit the sea, pull herself laboriously along the beach and start digging a hole in the sand with her flippers in preparation to lay her eggs. Although we kept our distance, we were able to see the magical process from afar. Pak Su, our knowledgeable and passionate guide, taught us that the sex of the eggs depends on where the mother chooses to lay them. If the mother lays her eggs in a place where they will experience high humidity, such as in the middle of the beach, the eggs will all hatch to become females, whereas if the mother lays them in a less humid

area, possibly higher up on the beach in the shade of trees, they will all become male. After the mother lays her eggs on the beach, the hatchery will collect the eggs and replicate the surroundings of the original nest in the safety of the hatchery until they hatch and are ready to be released into the sea. If the female turtles survive until adulthood, they will come back to the same beach to lay their eggs and the whole process will hopefully be repeated again. On the drive back to Kuantan, there is the opportunity to take a sightseeing tour to watch fireflies (Tel: +60179789256). In the evening, we journeyed on a small boat though the mangrove to see the fireflies in their natural environment. Our guide, Hafiz, is an extremely inspiring and passionate firefly enthusiast who has discovered a way to communicate with the insects. As we passed trees teaming with the critters, he would flash his torchlight in a certain pattern to beckon the fireflies towards us. Within a few minutes, we were surrounded by the illuminating creatures in an astounding display that resulted in smiles and gasps from everyone. Malaysia is a melting pot of different cultures and the food is no different. The three main categories you will find, when travelling the East Coast, is Malaysian halal delicacies, spicy Indian curries and fresh Chinese seafood dishes. Make sure to try the Malaysian dish of nasi lemak; slightly sweetened coconut rice with spicy sambal sauce, salty crisp baby anchovies and roasted peanuts, which is a beautiful balance of opposing flavours. Go for an Indian thali, served on a banana leaf, and eat a variety of Indian curries and rice with your hands. You can also get other Indian breads such as paratha, puri and dosai. Finally, make sure you get chilli crab and Malaysian-Chinese dishes at fresh seafood restaurants dotted along the coast. A trip to the unspoilt East Coast allows visitors to experience real Malaysia, without the constant crowds of tourists. It is a do-it-yourself type holiday, so be sure to rent your own car and explore the multiple beaches and towns nearby.

Hidden Treasures In Zanzibar

efore serving as a colony for European countries, Zanzibar was eastern Africa’s main trading base for Middle Eastern and Indian merchants, brokering deals in spices, slaves and ivory. Swahili was invented here, a marriage between the Bantu language and Arabic that resulted from the many business relationships that grew between locals and visiting traders, and 97 per cent of current residents consider themselves Muslim. In Stonetown, the island’s only city and the port for ferries from Dar Es Salaam, the foreign influence can still be seen in the traditional wooden doors of the laneways making up the Old Town. Meandering past these ornate entryways and stopping in at the Anglican Church, whose altar is located at the exact spot of the whipping post in the old

Slave Market, are the major tourist attractions here. Tours of spice plantations rich with saffron and vanilla beans, sunset cruises on dhow (Arabic sailboats) and a pilgrimage to Freddie Mercury’s birthplace are on most tourist itineraries as well. But visitors who head out of the alleyways and to the coast will discover that Zanzibar is now a destination for honeymooners and celebrities, basically anyone seeking serious privacy. Opened in 2012, Zanzi Resort sets the gold standard for this brand of seclusion travel. Only seven villas are spread over the six hectares that house the private hotel, and each comes with a large private pool complete with swimming machine, secluded rocky beach that is yours alone and private gazebo with al fresco bedding, the perfect perch to watch the sun go down over the Zanzibar Channel.

To ensure that discretion is respected at all times, each villa has a “privacy” stone on the path that leads to its door. Turn the rock on its red side, and all visitors – from maids to your own private concierge – will be stopped. There’s a gym that seems inspired by the MovNat movement and a restaurant and bar with outdoor grill for guests who want to socialise. Most guests, however, keep to themselves, usually only leaving their villa for a candlelit dinner on the resort’s shared beach, watched over by Maasai warriors. The recently opened White Sand Luxury Villa & Spa is cut from the same cloth as Zanzi Resort – their beach is also guarded by Maasai and the privacy stone is an option here as well – but seclusion isn’t the only major draw. (Some creative landscaping keeps the private plunge pools of their 11 expansive villas concealed, and an oversized outdoor

bathtub is tucked away behind a wall). The boutique property is run by a Polish family with a passion for kite-surfing that turned into a full-time job when they opened the resort and attached a school for the extreme water sport. Located on the east coast outside Paje, a fishing village almost an hour’s drive from the bustling tourist trade of Stone Town, White Sands beach is open to the locals and kitesurfing fanatics. They take advantage of the sandbar that stretches

kilometres past the sand – which is just as alabaster as the resort’s name - turning the vista from each villa’s individual rooftop terrace into a rainbow of colours and patterns. After a week-long safari or summiting Kilimanjaro, holing up in a place that caters to your every whim is the best way to staycation during your vacation. Both Zanzi and White Sands have designed the perfect secluded stay. Web: www.whitesandvillas.com

MICE SUPPLEMENT

MEETING INCENTIVES

CONFERENCING

EXHIBITIONS

November14 TalkMagazine

Introduction to MICE Alexander Charnaud

ver recent years, the amount of luxury hotels popping up in tier one and two cities has exploded to try and keep up with the seemingly insatiable hunger that Chinesebased companies have for MICE. But what is MICE and how has it become such an integral part of the Chinese hospitality business? This inconsistently used acronym is often bandied about without anyone really knowing what it means. An acronym for ‘Meetings, Incentives, Conferencing and Exhibitions’, MICE is an open-ended buzzword for corporate hospitality. China’s MICE industry is expected to become the largest industry of its type in the world over the next couple of years. Combining a rich cultural heritage and a rapidly growing economy, China has everything needed to be a great MICE destination.

Meetings

Meetings represent the most often used aspect of MICE hospitality. Primarily an office getaway that focuses less on the activities available and more on the potential for solving issues, meetings are an integral part of running a company anywhere in the world. Held extensively in hotels, large meetings, much like the other three aspects of MICE, represent a sizable portion of the hotel industry’s revenue.

Incentives

Do your employees need some inspiration? Is your office morale down in the dumps? If so then the incentives aspect of MICE is what you need to look at. Often used as a perk to either balance a lower than average salary or to reward good performance, incentive tourism is an incredibly broad term. Unlike the other aspects of MICE, incentives are more often than not unrelated to work and conducted for purely entertainment reasons. With various options available, from paintball to ropes retreats, the sky is the limit when it comes to incentives.

Conferencing

Great things happen when great people get together – at least that’s the idea behind conferencing. Increasingly important in the business world, conferences allow all the best and brightest in a particular field to meet in one place and discuss the issues that face their particular industry. Although not specifically limited in time, conferences usually last a few days and are designed to accomplish specific objectives in the agenda.

Exhibitions

Occasionally used to represent events, the E in MICE more commonly refers to exhibitions. Coming in all shapes and sizes from the massive Canton Fair and the even bigger 2010 World Expo held in Shanghai, exhibitions represent a major part of the MICE industry. Designed to showcase a variety of products or services, exhibitions allow companies to exhibit their wares and make new business connections. This is particularly important in China where face-to-face meetings and guanxi development are integral to a successful venture.

Tel: 6322 9988. Web: www. waldorfastoriashanghai.com We visited Pelham’s to welcome new chef de cuisine, Jean-Philippe Dupas. Chef Dupas’ first big break was as an apprentice chef at a Michelin star French restaurant at the tender age of 18, and his experience now ranges from working in some of the best kitchens in France, the UK and Dubai. We were promised that the new chef de cuisine had brought a fresh new culinary vision to his new menu with creative interpretations of classic dishes. Although his style is deeply rooted in traditional French cooking, he puts a modern twist to his plates with exquisite presentation. Set in the beautiful surroundings of

the signature fine dining restaurant at the Waldorf Astoria Shanghai On The Bund, dishes are served from the immaculate open show kitchen into the splendour of the dining room. We sampled the new lunch menu, RMB 218 for two courses, RMB 278 for three courses or RMB 338 for four courses plus 15 per cent service charge. We started our meal with seared scallops (RMB 188 a la carte). Plump, juicy, glistening fresh scallops glided their way to our table topped with thick slices of round truffle and a Waldorf salad with caramelised walnuts; a truly luxurious dish with layers of texture. For our main dish, we indulged in a whole Boston lobster (RMB 658 a la carte). The kitchen had kindly already taken the shell away from the crustacean and we were left with the tender pinktinged white meat piled on top of the plate amongst

al dente baby carrots, courgette puree and a frothy bisque; a picture perfect plating. For dessert, we selected the dark chocolate soufflé (RMB 108 a la carte), which was served alongside a generous spoonful of delicious Baileys ice cream and bitter orange cigarette cremeux; a sinful end to a fabulously extravagant meal. Chef Dupas plans to take maximum advantage in the change of seasons and refresh the menu by using different premium seasonal produce used every three months and we cannot wait to see

what changes he has in store as time progresses. If you simply cannot select one dish from the extraordinary new menu, then go for the degustation dinner menu that comes in a seven-course menu priced at RMB 1,288 per person. If you are feeling even more extravagant, your dishes may be paired with their expert sommelier’s extended wine list, which features artisanal, top quality wines collected from old world vintages from France and Italy as well as exciting finds from new world countries.

What: An exceptional cocktail joint in Jing’an Why: To sample Eddy Yang’s “tailor made” tipples Where: 4/F, 2 Huashan Lu, near Yuyuan Lu. Tel: 183 0197 7360

Dumbo Bar What: A delectable pintxo bar Why: For authentic Spanish drinks and bites from the El Willy Group Where: 20 Donghu Lu, near Huaihai Lu. Tel: 5404 8085. Web: www.elwilly.com This cosy and casual venue, which seats just 20 people, is tacked onto the side of elEfante, in the El Willy Group’s ubiquitous antique colonial villa on Donghu Lu. The atmosphere is warm and inviting with a simple marbled bar located at the back of the room and a selection of high tables and bar stools at the forefront. Drinks are kept simple, with a menu consisting of reasonably priced white and red wines (from RMB 48 per glass), rosé (RMB 320 per bottle), cava (RMB 65 per glass), red and white wine sangria (from RMB 170),

Spanish beers (RMB 45 per bottle) and signature, flavoured gin and tonics (from RMB 55). The main reason to come to this pintxo bar is, of course, the bites. This is chef Willy Trullás’ creation after all! The food menu is divided into three sections, montaditos (all priced at RMB 38), tins (all priced at RMB 38) and platillos (all priced at RMB 48). We were impressed with the preserved tuna belly, spicy tomato chutney and baby leaves, which we excitedly gobbled down with a glass of cold white wine. We also enjoyed the tender octopus, confit paprika potatoes and chorizo tin, which we mopped up with the toasted bread provided. Another standout dish was the meatballs and white bean stew; the perfect anecdote to a cold winter day.

Eddy Yang, owner of Tailor Bar, is a renowned barman who has returned to his native country after a nine year stint at Covent Garden’s Detroit Bar, in London. The Shenyang born barkeep won numerous awards for his cocktail creations whilst in the west and now has his sights set on Shanghai. By day, the unassuming fourth floor space, accessible by a characterless elevator, is a café, but at night, it turns into a classy speakeasy. Yang has been influenced by his time in London and adopted a somewhat British style throughout the bar. However, the standout feature for us was the floor to ceiling window covering one side of the bar

area, looking out over the glistening gold roofs of Jing’an Temple. Currently, there is no cocktail menu, and although this might seem strange, the reasoning is pretty simple – most of the cocktails are tailor made to suit each, individual customer. Prices per cocktail start at RMB 90 and Yang is working on a drinks menu for the future, which will feature signature cocktails. There is a wide selection of international spirits, liqueurs and bitters. We suggest going for anything with a Gin, Bourbon or Armagnac base and working your way up from there.

Welcome To China’s Global Trade Event For Imported Food And Wines 12 November to 14 November, 2014 at Shanghai International Expo Centre (SNIEC) Pudong. It is the eighteenth edition of FHC China in Shanghai, for food and hospitality supplies, and the second edition of ProWine China, for wine and spirits. Combined, these two shows will present 2400 participating companies from 63 countries and regions to buyers in the China market. This will be the largest trade exhibition and platform for the promotion of imported food and wines in the country. The exhibitions offer buyers from the hospitality, retail, import and distribution sectors the widest variety of food and wine products from more countries and companies than ever before.

he growth and development of FHC, year on year, reflects the dynamic nature of the Chinese economy and, more specifically, the rising demand for quality imported food and wines. The market in China for imported foods remains strong because there is a growing middleclass who demand quality products and currently, because of the weakened trust in Chinese food manufacturers, the growth in the demand for imports is phenomenal. The exhibition has grown to reflect this demand. The show expects to welcome more than 35000 trade people, up on 33839 visitors from last year. These guests will all be business people who have to register and pass security checks. Business guests will come from all over China, with 35% coming from outside Shanghai. Therefore, if you are exhibiting at FHC , you will meet the most important buyers from Beijing, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Chengdu and other important Chinese cities as they travel to this show in Shanghai instead of having to visit France, the US, Germany or other international destinations separately to source international foods. There are also about 2,500 guests visiting from outside China, for including Japan, Korea and South East Asia on research missions, looking for international products not available in their market or food manufactures seeking market opportunities in China. As all of the exhibitors are foreigners or, Chinese agents of foreign products, meeting importers and distributors is vital as companies can’t enter the China market unless they are connected with an importer. This exhibition is very much a meeting place for the parties to meet, interview and possibly appoint an importer or distributor for their products. This year, 200 importers will be exhibiting in the show in addition to the thousands who just visit offering a guaranteed business networking opportunity. The exhibition is in the same format as last year, a food show running alongside ProWine, a specialist wine and spirits show. ProWine China is organised by Messe Düsseldorf (Shanghai) Ltd and China International Exhibitions. A collaboration started last year and is now in its second edition and, due to the huge success of last year, has grown by 50%.

More than just an exhibition, FHC visitors can attend the many competitions, training seminars and tastings taking place across the five halls. Some 400 chefs will compete in over 17 competition categories in the FHC Culinary Arts Competition under the guidance of the World Association of Chefs Societies or join the China qualifying competition for the World Chocolate Masters. Visitors can also become acquainted with key growth sectors in the market separated into distinct product zones including wine, meat, tea and coffee, ice cream and olive oils, along with focused events for the professional buyers. This year, the show is also picking up on a new trend that has not been seen at any other food trade shows in Asia; the emergence of online food distribution channels. China is a world leader in online shopping. There is a culture of and appetite for online shopping with high consumer confidence and excellent infrastructure, unprecedented anywhere else in the world. Due to the prevalence of this form of distribution, the show has a focus on online shopping with representatives from the two biggest online traders, COFCO and Yihaodian, exhibiting in the show. They are well known publicly as trading platforms for food and wine but they are not so well known to the trade. These brands now have the opportunity to meet foreign principals and build their base of products and suppliers. Online platforms can cover the whole length and breadth of China in a way that bricks and stores mortar (traders or supermarkets) businesses cannot. The two powerhouses will also support conferences on issues surrounding the exciting and rapidly growing market for online trading in foods and beverages. This year, ProWine China, in neighbouring halls to FHC offers a total of 665 participating companies from 38 countries. New national pavilions include Macedonia, New Zealand and Moldova, whereas new regional pavilions include Catalonia of Spain and Emilia Romagna, in Italy. Many market leaders are present at ProWine China 2014 such as Gruppo Italiano Vini (GIV), Grands Chais de France (France), Sogrape (Portugal), CASTEL (France), Felix Solis Avantis (Spain), Jackson Family Wines (USA), Lenz Moser (Austria), Henkell & Co. Sektkellerei (Germany), BONFILS (France) and Codorniu (Spain). There is also an extensive range of seminars under the

Three days of intensive education seminars by the Wine and Spirit Education Trust and a host of National and corporate meetings, promoting regional wines. Leading online wine platform, Yesmywine.com, will join a conference panel discussion focusing on the advantages and disadvantages of online shopping. Guests will discover, amongst other things, that Chinese buy on recommendation, not by taste. Online shopping platforms allow lower end and middle end consumers to leave reviews and suggestions online. Even for top chateau wines, Chinese prefer to buy online from reputable channels such as Yesmywine as there are so many fakes in the market. When buying online, there is a certain amount of reliability and transparency in the price. Lisa Perrotti - Brown will travel from Singapore to give her first seminar in ProWine China. As the editor of Robert Parker Wine Advocate , the creator of the Robert Parker Rating System– a world recognised wine standard – she is in the perfect position to discuss wine marketing in China. Another coveted speaker is Judy Chan, CEO of Grace Vineyard. Possessing probably the best locally made wine in China, Chan is a tastemaker and has done wonders for the Chinese wine industry.

Inner Mongolian Folk Rock And World Music With Ajinai

Ajinai, formed in Beijing in 2009 and comprised of members selected from across China, is dedicated to bringing traditional Mongolian music into the 21st Century.

he band’s roots are planted firmly in the Mongolian grasslands, but their youth and experience lends a unique and contemporary twist to the traditional music. Their songs are fuelled by two important Mongolian elements; the morin khuur, or horse-head fiddle, a symbol of the Mongolian people, and khoomei, also known as throat-singing, which features the simultaneous sound of several pitches emanating from one voice. Both khoomei and the morin khuur developed out of a desire to mimic the sounds of nature. Thus, Ajinai’s music transports listeners to the wide-open plains of the grasslands, and to a time long before the electric guitar. However, the band members’ experience in the rock scene of China’s bustling capital, Beijing, lends a modern element to the music. Their rhythm is propelled by equal parts horse-charging and rock and roll’s four-on-thefloor with the melodies punctuated by a fiddle’s mournful bowing and the power chords of the electric guitar. Finding common ground between the traditions of the ancient past and the sounds of contemporary music produces something simultaneously ancient and modern, timeless yet forward-looking. It is a sound that has seen the band rise through the ranks of China’s music scene, performing at major venues, events and festivals across the country, as well as to opportunities across Asia, Europe and North America. In their short history, Ajinai have crisscrossed Asia and Europe. In 2014, the band released its second full-length album ‘Synthesis’ and, in its wake, will tour across China and internationally. Jonathan Campbell Ahead of the show, Talk put a few questions to band members Hugjiltu, Qiu Weiming, Buren Bayar and Li Zhiwei.

What is it about traditional Mongolian folk music that makes it still resonate with the 21st century?

How do traditional Mongolian musicians react to your new sound?

Ajinai: Maybe because Mongolian music derives from a nomadic lifestyle. It has a lot of different styles incorporated into the music so there is something there for everyone and for every generation, maybe that is why people today still like listening to the music.

Ajinai: Maybe some of the older generations don’t quite understand our sound, but that might just be a difference between generations, more than them having a problem with the evolution of the traditional music.

You meld rock instruments with the traditional sounds of Mongolian music. Was it easy to find common ground between the two sounds? Ajinai: It wasn’t really difficult to find a common ground. Mongolian traditional music fits very well with a lot of different styles, not only rock. If music comes from the heart and you know your instrument well, you can, in most cases, mix and match the sounds. How do you choose which instruments you use to create the best fusion between the two extremely different genres? Ajinai: Well the basis of rock music is bass, guitar and drums and the basis of traditional Mongolian music is Horse-head fiddle and Tobuxiur, so it came kind of naturally that these would be the instruments we would use to create our music, but we mix it up a bit with using a 12 string electrical guitar, the drummer adds a lot of different percussions to the drums also. We always experiment with the music and new sounds. We like to keep it changing and challenge ourselves.

What type of reaction have you received internationally? Ajinai: The experience that we have had abroad is that people seem to really like our music, they find it very different but still very relatable, so we have had very good reactions at our shows and for our music. On the occasions we have had the possibility to return to play the same venues or countries, we have been very happy to see that people who have seen us once also return to see us again. What are your plans for the future of the band? Ajinai: The future plans for Ajinai is to keep growing as a band and keep evolving our music. We want to keep experimenting with the sounds and add more styles into our music, not only rock but also maybe some jazz, blues and more. Ajinai will be playing in Shanghai at 9pm on the 14 November at QSW Cultural Centre (179 Yichang Lu, near Jiangning Lu). Ticket prices start at RMB 80 (students), RMB 100 (presale) and RMB 150 (on the door). Web: www.peony-sh.com/show.

WOOOZY OFFLINE Presents: LONE LIVE A/V SHOW Feat. KONX-OM-PAX Wooozy Offline brings out the big guns this November. Acclaimed UK producer Lone is coming to throw down his live a/v magic show, which in China will feature DJ and visual creative star Konx-om-Pax. The hyperchromatic music of Matt Cutler marks him out as a true impressionist. As Lone, he drizzles brightly coloured melody through his tracks with all the reflexive skill of a master painter daubing inks and pigment across paper. On Reality Testing (Cutler’s fifth Lone album, released on legendary imprint R&S in June 2014), he sends notes and chords rippling delicately into space before allowing them to disperse, to ooze beautifully away into the background fabric of the music. Combined with rhythms that ebb and flow, shifting from propulsive club constructions to beatific coastal hip-hop, it’s a sensuous, immersive, heady experience, and easily his most accomplished and selfcontained work to date. From 10pm. RMB 60 (before 12am). RMB 80 (after 12am). Arkham. 1 Wulumuqi Lu, near Hengshan Lu.
