Class 1967
Joseph Chan Kwok-Hung (1967), President of Fairchild Television, was one of the winter Olympic flame torch bearers in Vancouver. We are looking forward to seeing him in town to officiate the Miss Chinese Toronto Pageant 2009 later this month.
James Wan Koon-Ying visited us from Hong Kong in September with his wife Margaret. The class of 1967 threw a private dinner for him on the 23rd, which was followed by James’ birthday banquet on the 27th. A surprise guest at the banquet was the renowned WYK football star So Wai-Lum (蘇偉林) alias 細蘇 whom we have not seen for decades.
We were all delighted to have a chance of reminiscing the past years and learned from James tidbits on many fields which he is an expert on, including kung fu, feng shui, qi gong, Chinese medicine and his magnificent invention, the Topfit bricks 天風磚 while enjoying the sumptuous feast.
