Welcome to WYKAAO
Thank Goodness It's Friday.
We have over 120 renditions of Chinese poems, wine/food pairing reports, a series of 15-day motor cycling adventure and other travelogues waiting for you to enjoy over the weekend. One click at http://blog.wykontario.org/ will bring you there.
The first event of 2010 was a net-working dinner in Richmond Hill on Friday, January 08. Sung Yan-Wing (65) gave an overview of how US became a leading economic order and China’s rise to become the next powerful economic order. The importance of the interplay between these two powers surfaced at the recent Copenhagen Climate Change Conference 2009. It was a most informative and interesting talk. Sung Yan-Wing left shortly after 9:15 pm to catch his plane to Hong Kong at mid-night. Click here to view the pictures.
(The Board of Directors welcomes suggestions for future net-working dinner)
Of course, Mr. Wong sings in English.
At the 2009 year-end mini-reunion luncheon of the Class of 1962 at Kowloon Hotel, Mr. Wong gave an impromptu performance. Click here to view the video.
