The Point: Exclusive with Sally Yeh

Sally Yeh, an award-winning singer and actress from Hong Kong, started her career in the early 1980s. She has witnessed the changes in China's music scene over the past four decades. Her songs have touched generations of Chinese and still resonate with the younger generation. Why has she decided to stage a comeback after years of laying low? How does it feel to be embraced by young fans at the age of 60? And is she worried about aging at all?

    True story: I was a teenager back in the early 90s. I went to Hong Kong for my routine summer break visiting family. I bumped into Sally in a laser disc movie rental store called Laser People located in Causeway Bay. I told her I was a big fan of hers and I enjoyed her music. She stopped flipping through the movies and gave me her full attention, thanking me for being a fan and had a short conversation with me. What a nice humble person with a big heart! This encounter with her made me love her and her music mote than ever, even to this day. Sally, you are truely loved by millions.

    Not to my salty or anything, but I feel like that's basics for any Chinese person born and raised abroad that just isn't praised enough. This is especially when like a lot of mainland people will be so impressed by any foreigner knowing how to say the most basic words in Chinese. Almost all my mainland born friends don't believe me when I tell them that I was born and raised in San Francisco. The two chinese profs in my department kept telling me that "I speak really good, accent free English. What age did you come to the US?" and then they were floored when I told them that I was an ABC. And then their compliment became "wow you speak really good Chinese for an ABC". LOL. That's the byproduct of parents who don't speak a lick of English at home, a mom who loves watching mainland dramas, going to Cantonese chinese school to learn the characters and then self-teaching myself Mandarin by recognizing the characters while watching the dramas. A lot of us also know other Western languages by way of school making us learn as graduation requirements. I can fluently speak, read and write English, Cantonese and Mandarin, on top of having learned 3 years of French in high school and now learning Spanish by immersion because my partner is Mexican American. It's all a matter of being forced out of your own comfort zone and being willing to embarrass yourself and learn!

    I was not a big fan of Sally but now I like her more and more, not just because I appreciate more of her songs and singing skills, but the vitality and positive mentality she demonstrated in her recent music program in China. She ages gracefully without extra makeup or dying her hair(except dying it grey). A one year old child grows 100% older the following year, while a 50 year old gets just 2% more in a year' s time. So who should be more afraid of ageing? Sally, good for you!!!!!!!!!!!!.

    Very pleasant light interview in this crazy political world. Interestingly for the viewers to know, Sally grew up in the west, she understands both world. You see, intelligent people think alike.

    Sally is not afraid of ageing because she ages graciously! I was really shocked to see her dancing and singing on stage...where did she get the energy?
