My wife and I toured Macau and Hong Kong in Dec 2015. This time, I tried video recording the trip instead of photographing. The video is done using Andriod app VivaVideo Pro. It is done without any storyboard and so is amateurish. Hey, the intention is just to capture some memories and hopefully can provide some information on Hong Kong.

Story of a Priest
This song is specially composed for the oldest priest in Singapore. The true story of his life can hardly be expressed by these few words but I hope it can tell a bit of the faithfulness he showed towards his vocation.

Trip to Penang, Sep 2015
This is my 2nd trip to Penang. The first was many, many, many years ago. We flew by budget air from Singapore which took just an hour to reach Penang airport. Taking the white taxi in was a pleasant experience with the driver telling us his life story.
We stayed in Noordin Street Hotel - converted from an old house. The staff were helpful and the hotel is really quaint.

Pilgrimage to France - in the footsteps of St Louise Marie de Monfort
On 30th May 2015 till 12 Jun 2015, my wife and I went on a pilgrimage in France with some Monfort brothers and those working in the various Monfortian schools.
I'll not say much about St Louise Marie de Monfort as you can search for information about him from the Internet. What I'll show here are some photos and what is my takeaway.
To me, St Louise Marie de Monfort showed what is essential to be a Saint - make personal choice to be faithful to the baptismal promise in one's daily life. There will be difficulties and challenges in life but by making up one's mind to be faithful (which only human can), one shows forth the glory of God in one's humanity.
Being a saint is to be truly human - simple but not easy.

The Brothers of Monfort and the Sisters of Daughters of Wisdom were really wonderful hosts. We also want to thank Fr. Raja who came down from Rome to be the Spiritual Director of the pilgrimage.
