According to the [00:00:03] Galapagos conservancy, captive-bred tortices need to be between [00:00:07] five and seven years old, for them to have fighting chance when released in [00:00:11] the wild. But back on [00:00:14] a Floriana, this pioneering group are all 12 to 14 [00:00:17] years old, [00:00:19] of added maturity that will hopefully ensure their homecoming is [00:00:22] success. [00:00:31] With these 158 turtices, what we want is to [00:00:35] determine which areas they will use for foraging and for [00:00:38] migration, or for the ecological niches [00:00:42] of of these species. Change won't happen overnights and more releases are planned in [00:00:46] coming years, but if the classic fable teaches [00:00:49] a us anything, you can bet on the taurtous. It'll take a long [00:00:53] time to get back to the 10,00, 15,00 taurtises. They do grow [00:00:57] slowly, but they're very steady and persistent, I mean the... touris in the hair, [00:01:01] um, the taurtis does win the race, I think it is just beginning, and the [00:01:05] island is going to get his taurtises back and start itself to [00:01:08] replenish and [00:01:12] in renew. [00:01:15] of [00:01:20] This isn't your average jacket, it's one specifically [00:01:24] designed to help you fall asleep, anytime and [00:01:27] anywhere. so i'm going to try to take a [00:01:31] 10-minute nap in this chair and let you know how [00:01:35] my sleep was. good night. the flashing red light inside [00:01:39] the hood is meant to help me drift off while this ring tracks my [00:01:43] heart rate and body temperature. if my pulse stays too [00:01:47] high, the jacket plays a laby. so i don't think [00:01:51] i slept, but i feel very refreshed and i actually feel a little bit [00:01:55] more relaxed than did when i first put on this [00:01:58] jacket. placebo. [00:02:03] of [00:02:14] of [00:02:30] obesity and stroke, but it's also costing Japan and [00:02:33] estimated 3% of its [00:02:35] of GDP each year. Now to help the nation catch [00:02:39] more z's, the government is betting on sleep [00:02:42] of tech, a market expected to [00:02:44] of top $98 [00:02:49] of of million by 2027. Gadgets include [00:02:49] of box you can sleep in standing up, a bed that lies flat when you do [00:02:53] off, even [00:02:54] of hotel that tracks your night sleep. In [00:02:58] here, infrared camera. if you snore, then [00:03:01] there's this machine in the back here also to measure how much you're [00:03:05] snoring, and they tell me that this mattress also helps you [00:03:09] improve your sleep because it can tell how much you're moving in your sleep, [00:03:13] but do these products actually help or are they just expensive [00:03:17] bedtime accessories? many [00:03:19] of them don't have very solid evidence [00:03:23] for the effect, unfortunately says [00:03:26] Japan's sleep problem starts young Japanese. kids [00:03:30] are already very much [00:03:32] in sleep deprived, partly because they [00:03:36] have this not only [00:03:38] a regular school, you most [00:03:40] of them actually go to after school, school, almost [00:03:44] the nation is teaching them that [00:03:47] of sleepiness during the daytime is normal thing, which is not [00:03:51] true, so the [00:03:52] of biggest sleep aid might not be another gadget, but changing the [00:03:56] culture around rest. good night and good. on getting [00:04:00] a good night sleep. Hannika Montgomery, CNN, [00:04:03] Tokyo. [00:04:14] of [00:04:27] of [00:04:32] of [00:04:37] a [00:05:07] a [00:06:34] This is Maco, around 700 thousand [00:06:38] people live in this former Portuguese colony, an area. [00:06:42] roughly 33 square kilometers, that's about 24 [00:06:46] times smaller than the size of New York [00:06:48] City. long known as the Las Vegas of [00:06:52] Asia, Macao, a special administrative region of China, has [00:06:56] world-class casinos, hotels, shopping [00:06:59] malls, and that's why people come [00:07:02] here. In 2023, more than [00:07:06] 28 million visitors, around 40 times the local [00:07:09] population arrived in Macao. [00:07:13] GDP also rose over 80% the level in [00:07:16] 2019, small, but [00:07:19] mighty. Still, this former colony hasn't fully [00:07:23] recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic either in visitors or [00:07:27] the economy. That's why, nearly 25 [00:07:31] years after its handover from Portugal back to China, [00:07:35] Macao is looking to diversify its econom away from the [00:07:39] gaming tables into its unique heritage. [00:07:45] a blend of Chinese and Portuguese cultures, what guests [00:07:49] expect is shows is to see something different. [00:07:52] Wow, and it's style a [00:07:56] mix of old world charm with modern ingenuity. It's [00:08:00] a very good blend the east and the west. To [00:08:04] us, macaw is our root. We hope that visitors can [00:08:08] understand that Maco has its own thriving [00:08:10] culture. This is Next [00:08:14] stop [00:08:14] Maco. [00:08:29] Macao may be small, but its skyline reflects its big [00:08:33] ambitions. Grand Hotels a [00:08:37] massive convention center, lights [00:08:40] everywhere. Maco. is an architect's [00:08:43] playground and a place obsessed with [00:08:46] constructing new things, Simon is [00:08:50] following his own [00:08:51] path. [00:08:55] he owns hotel central a nearly century old [00:08:58] building and one the most iconic in [00:09:01] Macao. Hotel Central and I [00:09:05] are faded together, and that's because my family lived across from Hotel [00:09:09] Central when I was born. The moment I became conscious and [00:09:12] website, I saw hotel central right before [00:09:15] me. Constructed in [00:09:18] 1928, it was Macao's first ever fully [00:09:22] integrated Casino Hotel and the first building to have an [00:09:25] elevator. In 1942, it held the title as [00:09:29] Macau's tallest skyscraper at 11 floors [00:09:32] high, which drew the likes of Hollywood Star Clark Gable and [00:09:36] James Bond author Ian Fleming. The allure the [00:09:40] hotel captured Simon's heart at. early [00:09:43] age. [00:09:47] As children, we were very rowdy, and nowhere to go after school, [00:09:51] we would frequent the largest building in Macau out of curiosity. [00:09:54] One day I got caught by an employee and [00:09:57] was thrown [00:09:57] out onto [00:09:58] the streets. [00:09:59] As kid, [00:09:59] you know, I didn't know better, so I pointed at the hotel and swore [00:10:03] that I would buy it someday. That's what he did in [00:10:07] 2016. By then, the hotel had fallen into decline [00:10:10] after losing its casino. [00:10:25] everyone around me, money can produce volume, but money [00:10:28] cannot reproduce history. that is why [00:10:31] i want to coexist with history. it's irreplaceable. i felt [00:10:35] that restoring the hotel was huge business opportunity, so did [00:10:39] it without hesitation. [00:10:43] restoration got underway in 2020, from repiling the [00:10:47] delicate foundation to restoring the exterior, simon [00:10:51] wanted to retain the hotel's original integrity. [00:10:55] The structure went through lot of changes that would have never been done before in [00:10:59] Macao. We were the first in Macao to try our method. When [00:11:03] you have no experience, you have to take time for trial and error [00:11:07] every step the way. After about [00:11:11] $50 million US dollars and years of restoring the [00:11:14] building, Hotel Central officially opened in the summer of [00:11:18] 2024. The design is based on styles from the [00:11:22] 1920s to the 1940s, from the mosaic [00:11:25] floor tiles, vintage, antiques, curated by Simon [00:11:29] himself to the art deco [00:11:31] elevators. [00:11:38] Cultural heritage is essential for healthy tourism [00:11:42] sector, observers say. The global heritage tourism market [00:11:46] reached more than 580 billion US dollars in [00:11:49] 2023. That number expected to grow to [00:11:53] more than 810 billion. [00:11:55] culture by 2032, according to market research firm, [00:11:58] i'm mark heritage [00:12:00] group. plays key role in contributing to the tourism [00:12:03] development in macal, so in 2005, the historical [00:12:07] center of macau was inscribed in the world heritage site [00:12:11] including 22 sites and a squares. so [00:12:14] start from that, so historical center maccao has become a unique tourism [00:12:18] attractions and also a key reasons for [00:12:21] visitors to visit macao. but [00:12:25] bringing in those visitors means having viable ways for them to get to [00:12:29] Maco, transportation by all means on the [00:12:32] ground, by sea and [00:12:35] air, and on the list the world's [00:12:39] top 20 busiest airports you probably won't find [00:12:43] this place, it might not even crack the top [00:12:46] 50. Welcome to Macao International [00:12:49] Airport, basically to Macao, the modern [00:12:53] aviation is is brand new. we bew it [00:12:56] from up. built on reclaimed land on the eastern [00:13:00] side the Macao peninsula, the airport began operating in [00:13:03] 1995 with one terminal, 10 gates and a [00:13:07] single runway. Macau International Airport is one the [00:13:11] smallest major airports in southern China. about [00:13:15] 100 kilometers away, Guanjo's buyun international airport [00:13:19] is one the world's busiest, according to airports Council [00:13:23] International. It served. 63 million passengers in [00:13:26] 2023, compared to Maco's 5 [00:13:30] million. Closer still is Hong Kong [00:13:33] at only an hour's ferry ride away. Hong Kong [00:13:37] International Airport offers flights to around 220 [00:13:40] destinations worldwide. Macau, around [00:13:43] 42. Still, its conception was [00:13:47] huge source of pride for the small region. Chairman Simon [00:13:51] Chan remembers it well. [00:13:56] "back in 1994, when the airport is under [00:13:59] construction, the whole city is excited, when the airport started the [00:14:03] constructor, at that time I was in college, my father [00:14:06] always cut the newspaper and send it to [00:14:08] me. flag carrier Air Maco is based [00:14:12] here, mainly serving mainland China. [00:14:16] Since the disruption the pandemic in 2019, the airport has [00:14:20] only recovered nearly 80% of [00:14:23] pre-pandemic passenger. traffic observers say what they're missing [00:14:27] is is those other markets, particularly Korea, but also [00:14:30] Taiwan, uh, Philippines, [00:14:34] Malaysia, all these, all these other markets are down, [00:14:38] Thailand, and these were kind their main main markets, pre covid, in terms [00:14:42] of after China, [00:14:44] and which [00:14:44] is obviously the by far their largest markets, I think from the tourism [00:14:48] market point of view, of course, what they expect the [00:14:52] airport is morewood. more [00:14:55] airlines, [00:14:59] overshadowed by nearby cities in both size and [00:15:02] capacity, Simon says macaw and its airport need a unique [00:15:06] strategy to grow. [00:15:08] is a small city, we need to rely a little bit on more [00:15:12] on the market around us, so the connectivity is very [00:15:16] important, so besides expanding the [00:15:19] airports, the interconnectivity [00:15:23] between, airports and the city [00:15:26] arounds are very important. is [00:15:30] linked to nearby Hong Kong and Juhai through a 55 [00:15:34] km sea crossing bridge. It's important to to. look at [00:15:37] it as kind of one region, particularly now that the infrastructure [00:15:41] has improved with the opening of new bridges and so forth, what that does [00:15:45] is it it opens up the lot of opportunities [00:15:48] to to to kind of attract passengers or or tourists or [00:15:52] visitors from visiting multiple destinations in the [00:15:56] region, but it also makes it easier for somebody [00:16:00] heading from to one destination to use an airport in another [00:16:03] destination. new routes are being added and the... [00:16:07] Airport has announced plans for expansion, which is due for completion in [00:16:11] 2030. Although it's unlikely it will outgrow its [00:16:15] neighbors. Operators at this little airport say it still has [00:16:19] a big role to play in the region. We don't have [00:16:22] their size, but we are having our own [00:16:26] flexabilities. [00:16:41] Street artist Annie Chong and her Costa Rican born husband Felipe [00:16:45] Wong are hoping to put Bacao on the global stage, [00:16:48] one toy a time. It's a very good [00:16:52] blend the east and the west. Um, [00:16:56] and storytelling wise, it's actually quite [00:16:59] interesting too. In [00:17:02] 2020, the couple found toy brand Nativo, which [00:17:06] translates to... in both Portuguese and Spanish, [00:17:09] reflecting their diverse backgrounds. Annie [00:17:13] and Felipe gravitated toward this nostalgic medium plastic [00:17:17] as their canvass and souvenires with their own spin, [00:17:21] heavily inspired by hip-hop culture. In fact, the [00:17:25] plastics industry is nothing new here. For a brief time [00:17:29] in the 1980s, Macoo was a thriving hub for manufacturing, [00:17:32] its main export [00:17:34] toys. [00:17:37] Match box. cars, hasbro's transformers G1, and [00:17:40] Mattel's hot wheels were all made in [00:17:43] Macao. Traditionally, everyone first thought we would go [00:17:47] to Hong Kong, unfortunately, but um, but then when I [00:17:50] start digging into it, I realized Macao was the first ones that were doing [00:17:54] plastic and toys and then they moved to Hong Kong, then they moved [00:17:58] into China. some people will see like some people that is not involved in the culture, it's like [00:18:02] it's just a piece of plastic, but but these piece of plastic for us, this is the [00:18:06] our stories, so... it is it is super important for [00:18:10] us, we want people to react, we want people out to [00:18:13] participate, to to get activated and to to find out that they can do all these things [00:18:17] and we can show all this stuff to everybody else outside the city [00:18:20] too. alice cock leads a non-profit organization [00:18:24] helping develop the local art scene in macaw. i [00:18:28] think this is quite characteristic to our [00:18:32] our cultural identity, i think and so we we [00:18:36] can see that the younger ' is they also have this uh [00:18:40] tendency to mix uh very [00:18:43] traditional medium and also very [00:18:46] contemporary and the east and the west and and [00:18:49] mixture with the mechanis [00:18:51] culture. the local artists [00:18:55] say they use macaau small size to their advantage to [00:18:59] foster collaboration between disciplines. i think macao [00:19:03] has that flexibility to do that uh small community so it's easier [00:19:07] to... reach out to different people who are specializes in different [00:19:10] areas to complete one single [00:19:13] project, but that also means a small market. [00:19:17] alice says artists here need more [00:19:19] audiences. now they sell [00:19:23] their products online and at toy shows and are preparing to sell [00:19:27] their toys at this coffee shop. it could be big [00:19:31] business too. the toy collectibles market is estimated to reach [00:19:35] a market value of over 35. billion dollars [00:19:38] by 2032, according to analysts, much of it [00:19:42] made in mainland China. For education, for [00:19:46] our younger generation, I think is uh, it's important [00:19:50] for them to grow up, not [00:19:53] only thinking that earning money is the [00:19:56] only goal for them to survive, [00:20:00] but to cultivate uh our spirit, being [00:20:04] creative, I think is uh something that is... that is very [00:20:08] important in the development of the society as a [00:20:11] whole, we feel like everybody needs to to have [00:20:15] this uh [00:20:16] this uh feeling this attitude in life because it's a self-improvement thing, it's a [00:20:20] self-expression thing, you find way to to to discover your [00:20:23] own identity and toys connected very much [00:20:26] with it. a [00:20:30] growing young community inspired by the past, innovating for [00:20:34] the future, and it's not just about art, There are [00:20:37] budding young entrepreneurs doing the same thing across different [00:20:41] sectors of Maco, including its most iconic [00:20:45] delicacy. [00:20:48] This is a port. egg tart with its flaky pastry [00:20:52] shell and rich custard filling, it's one of macao's most [00:20:56] beloved sweet treats, and now 28-year-old [00:21:00] crystal quack has turned it into [00:21:02] beer. this is [00:21:05] Maco's very first craft beer company called funny [00:21:09] eye, founded six years ago while Crystal was still a university [00:21:13] student. The business has stood the test of [00:21:16] time. Forget. [00:21:20] but the rules, people think savory flavors cannot be made into [00:21:23] beer, that food cannot be made into beer, but we're here [00:21:27] to rewrite the rules, the young entrepreneur first [00:21:31] experimented with fermentation in her own home and selling out of a [00:21:35] wooden cart at weekend markets with [00:21:38] friends. [00:21:44] after years of fine tuning her brewing process with [00:21:47] fermentation tanks and brewing equipment. tailored to fit inside [00:21:51] her 12th floor warehouse brewery. Crystal is proud to [00:21:55] say her beer is 100% made in [00:21:58] Macau. In every aspect, [00:22:02] people wonder why we base our operations in Macau. We have to [00:22:06] source everything externally, but to us, Mcaw is our [00:22:10] root. We hope that visitors can understand that Mcao has its [00:22:14] own triving [00:22:15] culture. [00:22:20] famous ruins of St. Paul's, her tasting room is just 5 [00:22:23] minutes away. They pair [00:22:27] snacks with seasonal beers on tap, mango sticky rice [00:22:31] al, coriander and tea infused [00:22:34] flavors. There isn't much of a drinking culture in [00:22:38] Macao Crystal says, but she is eager to change the business [00:22:41] landscape and evolve the industry for craft [00:22:44] breweries. I think this type of [00:22:48] thinking is becoming more. popular, they have a going desire to [00:22:52] build something new, to try. I think Maco is seeing the [00:22:56] next generation who want to do their own [00:22:58] thing. Her brand is now [00:23:02] expanding into Mainland, China and Hong Kong along the side [00:23:06] of new non-alcoholic [00:23:08] drinks. Young [00:23:12] talent, working to ensure a future of Made in [00:23:15] Macao. [00:23:29] Codfish cake, seafood, rice, egg tart, [00:23:33] these are some the staples of Portuguese comfort food, and for [00:23:37] hungry, Asia-based fans the cuisine, you don't need a fly [00:23:41] to Europe to get bite of this Portuguese heritage, [00:23:45] they can get it right here in Maco, [00:23:48] semi-autonomous region. in southern China and former [00:23:52] Portuguese colony. It's been nearly 25 years since [00:23:56] Macau's handover from Portugal back to [00:23:58] China. The European [00:24:02] influence here is still ubiquitus, like [00:24:06] in the historic St. Lazarus district with cobbled [00:24:09] streets, churches and colonial style [00:24:12] architecture. Pedro Almada [00:24:16] moved here from Portugal in 2015. [00:24:20] "I love cooking since I [00:24:21] was kid. Macao seems a bit portuguese uh, [00:24:25] so I decided to come to Macao and start to cook Portuguese [00:24:29] traditional [00:24:30] food. [00:24:35] The 31-year-old is the executive chef of Alberg [00:24:38] 1601, one of [00:24:42] number of Portuguese restaurants in Macao. [00:24:46] Founded in 2010, his menu features an extensive list." [00:24:50] of traditional portuguese classics, including the [00:24:54] seafood rice. the secret to Alberg's [00:24:57] appeal, authenticity, he says, we [00:25:01] use recipes that are authentic, [00:25:05] portuguese, so the way we can be [00:25:08] creative is to bring new dishes that never been in [00:25:11] macao. [00:25:16] the restaurant's general manager says their design concept is based. [00:25:20] unchanging appetites of tourists who increasingly want [00:25:24] more, so by living here for 11 years, now we have [00:25:27] diversity of tourists that are looking for, not just the casino [00:25:31] and the five stars hotel and the mission stars, but also to look for the [00:25:35] authenticity. outside it's courtyard frame by two [00:25:39] century old camper trees with every room here [00:25:42] made to look unique. what's different nowadays and what [00:25:46] guests expect is shows is to see something different. They don't, [00:25:50] they don't come just for the food, they come for the environment, for the music, [00:25:54] uh, in this case, for the courtyard as well of restaurant. [00:25:58] There's no shortage of good Michelin Start restaurants [00:26:01] here, but... Some restaurant tours here are doubling [00:26:04] down on Macao's Portuguese past.
