Golden Horse Film Festival and Awards
In 2000, Yang formed Miluku Technology &amp; Entertainment to produce animated films and TV shows. The first animated feature that Miluku was slated to produce was an animated feature titled "The Wind" with Jackie Chan in 2007, but the project was cut short when Yang fell ill with cancer. At the 2007 Pusan International Film Festival, he won an award for Asian Filmmaker of the Year, and was also immortalized with a hand-printing at the festival along with Ennio Morricone, Seung-ho Kim, Volker Schlöndorff, Dariush Mehrjui and Claude Lelouch. In 2007, Yang also won a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Golden Horse Film Festival and Awards that year.
