Special report from Hong Kong!

Reported by PP Dharmindra

My Rotaract journey has not come to an end.

I accepted Max’s invite to participate in a community service project on the 15th Sept 2007 organised by Epworth Methodist Church, Rotaract Club of Hong Kong Island East and Rotaract Club of Kowloon North West at Chai Wan area where we distributed mooncakes and conversed with the underprivileged in conjunction with the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival on the 26th of Sept 2007. Chai Wan region is situated at Hong Kong Island East and the less fortunate which comprised mainly of elderly people, stayed in flats provided by the government.

Though language was an obvious barrier for me, i noticed the joyful faces of those we met and one granduncle was actually born in Seremban during the pre-Merdeka days. We shared stories and through Max (my translator), i explained latest going-ons of Malaysia as he was very interested to know more!

I had a great time and met many energetic and dynamic Rotaractors. We ended the evening with dinner at Lan Kwai Fong together with a few Taiwanese Rotaractors who were in Hong Kong for a holiday.

Yours In Rotaract,
