I am impressed by your enthusiasm and initiatives. Like you, I am totally committed to doing something to preserve and promote the appreciation of Chinese culture. By the way, you are cordially invited to visit my amateurish blogs. Please give me your comments and suggestions so that I can improve further. Happy to be linked to your blog. Thank you.

Hi Kent,
I came across your site while doing some research on my family tree. So much history on your site. Kudos to you!
Do you know whether Ling Chi Xing Gong is the only temple on Truro Road? If it is, the architect could be my grandfather 😉
Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to learn dialects like Hakka or a website to exchange and share our own studies in Dialect. For the last 6 months, I have been asking people (really ask a lot of people I know, some whom only just met me on how do you say “dragonfly” in Hakka). I chanced this web site by accident; hoping to learn and enrich my own cultural experience.
