Happy 20th Anniversary

Jeremiah's favourite radio station, Y.E.S. (Your Entertainment Station) 933, has turned 20.

933 has been a fixture of Jeremiah's life since that fateful day some 19 years, when Jeremiah stumbled upon it. 933 was then playing 吻別. Unlike the other Mandarin radio stations, 933 had energetic DJs and played songs that appealed to the young and young at heart (it still has/does); xinyao also featured regularly on the station then. That was way before 933 had its catchy name and before it became a 24-hr radio station.

Over the years, 933 had accompanied Jeremiah through life's ups and downs, the days and the nights, and around the world. Whether it was burning midnight oil mugging for the common tests or standing to in the foxholes waiting for the elusive enemy to make contact, 933 was always there. When Jeremiah spent years on the other side of the globe, 933 with its soothing songs helped him pass the dreary and sometimes lonely long winter nights.

Thank you, my friend, and Happy Birthday!
