More than 100 years ago, in 1907 to be precise, my Great Grand
Father led a group of immigrants Overseas to uncharted land of Borneo.
Then in 1970, my brother Charles went on his Overseas journey to New Zealand.
I follow suit to my Overseas journey to Canada in 1975.
At last, my latest Book, "Growing up in Borneo" is ready. It talks about all the Overseas journeys of my siblings.
My thanks to
Eve Leong for making her butterflies. They gave me inspiration. The
butterfly is a symbol of Hope, Life and Endurance to the bereaved.

Two families leave China 100 years ago, This is a journal recording their passage, their so-journ in Borneo and then on to Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, England and beyond. A fascinating account of how time and place have changed the members.

post card from 60 years ago
I am a person of nostalgia. Most of my writing is about Nostalgia.
My cousin Cecillia went to her brother's house and saw two 60 years old postcards. It was posted by my Dad 60 years ago to my uncle David from England.
I was so happy to know, my cousin Vincent kept them. Cousin Vincent is the nephew of Uncle David. It was Vincent's sis Cecillia who posted this photo to me. Things like these are very precious to me, because our own things had been eaten by termites.
