At that time, many new immigrants from Taiwan and Hong Kong remitted vast amounts of money, promoting the branch’s performance comes out on top. As a result, many Chinese customers were scrambling to get special financial management services from our bank. The highest point of my capability was that I could speak multiple languages, making communications easy while serving customers. Soon I became famous and envious of others, winning appreciation from the boss at work.  There is a

Stephen Chung 2022-04 Years ago, I had the opportunity to visit a nursing home. I met an old man in a wheelchair, so I went to greet him and asked, “What’s your name?” He replied, “I am Kay Ying.” I thought he meant to say that he’s an elderly senior, collectively sounding “Kei Ying” same in Chinese. So I repeated, “What’s your name?” Again, he said, “My name is Kay Ying.” I later realized that his name is not the same as “Kei Ying” (elderly). And so what does the Chinese term “Kei Ying” (elderly ) mean? I read some literary quotations recorded in Quli, the Book of

Edwin Law 2022-04 What do you often see when you check on your favorite social media? Some deep and meaningful sharing from close friends? Or a long list of postings from your “friends”, with photos of them visiting high-end restaurants, attending luxurious weddings, and having extravagant vacation trips?

Helen Man  2022-04 Terrifying Deception In recent years, China has been cracking down on counterfeit and substandard medicines to a great extent. During the worst of the pandemic, the government seized frenzied manufacturers of fake vaccines, and among such incidents was the “Jilin XX Vicious Vaccine Case”. The fusions between fake and real vaccines are harmful, and one can’t help but think of the sensational 2008 milk scandal that poisoned and caused kidney stones in 300,000 babies, with the conclusion in many deaths. Other unethical food practices have been exposed in the media as well, which include cooking oil extracted from the waste, poisoned rice, and foods that contain

Clay Jar April 2022 His haggard face and humble demeanor reminded me of the description of Christ in the Book of Isaiah. “He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of the dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.

Doctor Luke 2022-04 I fondly remember the Hippocratic Oath I took when I graduated from medical school more than thirty years ago. This is a moral declaration that every medical school graduate must swear before practicing medicine, which includes not doing anything harming the patient, not prescribing lethal drugs, or giving relevant advice to patients. I am convinced that this is an affirming declaration of human worth. You and I are creations, formed from the dirt and will return to the dust. From this point of view, people are worthless. But we were given this value when the God who created the heavens and the earth created us
