Gafencu Men - August 2014

In dieser Angelegenheit

With World Cup fever finally over, August ushers in headaches for the losers and plaudits for the champions. This month we talk to Hong Kong’s standard-bearer for the victorious team: Germany’s Consul-General Nikolaus Graf Lamsdorff.

Only one year into his posting, it’s safe to say a World Cup win for Germany is likely to be the highlight of a successful year. In this month’s issue of Gafencu Men we talk football, political pragmatism, and Lamsdorff’s postings to the strife-torn Balkans.

Staying at the top of the league, we’ve got a round of interviews with ex-beauty-queen turned animal-activist, Sharon Kwok, who explains the importance of conservation, and get knowledgeable about another kind of beauty (ones that last forever) when we talk to lapidary-maestro Wallace Chan, whose diamond-cuttings have been used on everything from earrings to religious sites.

Talking football, did the Christmas 1914 kick-about really happen? We get mythological with the myth-stories of the Great War, move underground with Hong Kong’s lost subterranean legacy, and celebrate Star Wars’ upcoming return with a low-down on what made the world’s favourite science-fiction sexology so great in the first place.

To round it out, we’ll keep you entertained with another glut of columns: get passionate about Pinot Noir; find out which Apps will keep your phone saying more about you than you ever say about it; and top it all off with the usual low-down on fashion, watches and clothing tips. Only in Gafencu Men.
