I have the feeling that the tall scout leader in the Taipo photo was Stephen Ching, now in Toronto.  Lawrence

Hi Lawrence, thanks for the info. 

Do you know if there are any ways to reach Stephen? Would love to hear more about the stories on these photos!

Stephen was in HK recently and unfortunately had a stroke.  I understand that he is back in Toronto and hospitalised.  I mean to find time when he is well enough to visit him or chat with him. I used to recite the old Chinese version of the Scout Oath to him. I think he said he was the one who drafted it in the old days.
