Chinese DJ retired at 96
Ray Cordeiro from Hong Kong, who has worked in radio for over 70 years, had his last broadcast and retired. The 96-year-old presenter admitted that he feels like a happy person, according to the BBC .
Uncle Ray, as the audience called him, has hosted his All The Way With Ray program since 1970. Fans will remember it with its easy-to-listen playlist, baritone and flat cap on the head. In 2000, he entered the Guinness Book of Records as the most persistent DJ.
“That's it. Thank you very much for listening, goodbye, thank you for coming, ”he said at the end.
The presenter was born in Hong Kong, but is Portuguese by birth. Recently, in an interview, he admitted that he is the luckiest person in the world, as he does and loves what he wants, and also has no regrets. During his 72 years on the air, he met many prominent personalities, including members of the Beatles, Cliff Richard and Tony Bennett.
Recall that in September last year, an elderly French woman threw a party with an orchestra and cake on her 104th birthday. And in March 2019, the 111-year-old Briton revealed the secret of his longevity.
