During my secondary school life and my college life (HKTC), I was most of the time quiet (even timid), obedient and hard working through self-motivation.
A good college classmate sowed the first seed of Christian faith during my college days.
From my late teens to early twenties, thanks to my elder brother Mark, my social and recreational life had grown in duration and variety. He led me to participate in the Duke of Edinburgh Scheme and other activities, after which I became quite active in sports and games, including practicing Judo, and joining the marathon canoe competition for three times, of which I am still proud today.
After graduation from HKTC, acquiring a Higher Diploma in Electronic Engineering (HiDip was lower than first degree level), I took British external examinations to achieve the BSc level within two years by self studies after work.
Through some help from my father, good timing and some luck, I made a job application and was recruited into the Hong Kong Telephone Company (HKTel later became HK Telecom and now PCCW) as a Trainee Engineer, which was a job many university graduates wanted to get in those days.
