Reading all those scandals about celebrities in the entertainment, political or business world, some times I ask myself: Do people still care about doing good deeds anymore? Who should be my daughter's role model when she needs one?
Fortunately, once in a while, you still hear some heart-warming stories: Mr. Koo, CFO of Nam Tai Electronic (and a fellow Pui Ching Middle School alum), has donated funds to keep alive the John F. Kennedy Centre of HK Red Cross, which offers senior secondary education (equivalent to Grade 12 in US) to physically very fragile students who have intense difficulties in attending classes in a regular school setting.
Previously Mr. Koo has donated HK$100 million to Hong Kong Baptist University to meet its fund-raising goal such that the government will match its subsidy in the same amount. This is a big boost to colleges that are facing financial difficulties in Hong Kong.
Now I have an answer.
