OCT 2011 - Phoenix Television is a Hong Kong-based Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese television broadcaster that serves the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong along with other markets with substantial Chinese viewers.

From it's first broadcast on March 31st, 1996. the growth in their satellite broadcasting business now covers over 150 countries and regions around the world, with an estimated audience of 300 million subscribers, among which, over 42 million households with more than 150 million viewers are from Mainland China.  That's alot of eyeballs!

I was invited to appear on one of Phoenix's US based Lifestyle shows, that explored the worldwide interest in the real estate market in Vancouver, West Vancouver and Richmond.  This segment was originally aired in October 2011.  It was alot of fun - we showed them some beautiful properties - and talked about what asian buyers were looking for.  The segment is 22 minutes long - and primarily in Mandarin.
