HONG KONG PORTRAITS - Paul CHEUNG ( 6 )

Paul CHEUNG - Academic at the School of Continuing and Professional Education,
City University of Hong Kong.


Paul, is my friend.



I met Paul Cheung at the old Lutheran Church , I remember it was on the day of DOUBLE TENTH in 2004 ( 10th of October, national day of the Republic of China ). Since that day, Paul is the only friend I'm still keeping after all these years among the congregations I met at the Church. Paul is teaching at the CITY UNIVERSITY OF HONG KONG, he's a dedicated academic and the devout Christian. He spend lot of times giving seminars in different places within the territory promoting his philosophy of OPTIMISM and how to lead a happy life with positive attitude inspiring people to smile and carry on in the time of predicaments. I too, was once consoled by his ability to listen to my story with deeper understanding when I needed a good listener during worst time in my life. Meanwhile, Paul is also a leading role in the Christian community devoting his time for the good of society trying to reach out more people and spread the Good News of Gospel.  Paul is an observant man who is able to appreciate wider spectrum of humanity, free from religious dogma. We come out sometimes for a cold beer and a chat, and we talk about anything,  from current affairs, politics to forbidden love, there's nothing we don't talk about. We always enjoy our gatherings.



A good listener with a sensitive heart, Paul Cheung is an awesome guy.
