Features: Modern Shanghai is the only international immigrant metropolis in East Asia. Those who come, from all over the world, stay for short or long periods, but upon arrival, most experience a sense of "watching Western shows." This feeling has often become part of their later lives in Shanghai. Since the reform and opening-up, Shanghai has far surpassed its past in terms of economic development and social progress, attracting global attention. For this reason, starting two years ago, the Macao Daily News has invited Lu Kang, who moved from Shanghai to Macao, to host the column "Feeling Shanghai," helping readers get acquainted with and understand the city's past and present—truly a well-intentioned and thoughtful initiative.
