from "Children in War" CODA:
How many times must innocents die?
War ciolates every right of a child.
-The right to life
-The right to health and education
-The right to be with family and community
-The right to live in peace.
Who will listen to the voices of the children?
We are not just witnesses to their fate but participants.
It is the moral responsibility of a civilized world to protect the rights of children.
At the end of the twentieth century, targeting and killing children in war is still a crimeagainst humanity.

"Whoever Finds This I Love You" ~ Lyrics/composed by Mac Davis (live by Jasmine Leong)
On the quiet street in the city. A little old man walked once. Shuffling through the autumn afternoon. And the autumn leaves reminded him. Another summer's come and gone. He had a long midnight ahead waiting for June.
The among the leaves near an orphan's home. A piece of paper caught his eyes. And he stood to pick it up with trembling hands. And as he read the childish writing. The old man began to cry.
'Cause the words burned inside him like a brand.
"Whoever finds, this I love you, Whoever finds this, I need you, I even go no one to talk to, So, whoever find this I love you."
Well, the old man's eyes searched the orphan's home. And came to rest upon a child. With her nose pressed up against the window pane. And the old man knew he'd found a friend at last. So he waved her and smiled
And they both knew they'd spend the winter. Laughing at the rain. And they did spend the winter laughing at the rain, Talking through the fence, Exchanging little gifts they's ve made each other.
The old man would crave toys And the little girl would draw pictures for beautiful ladies, And they laught a lot
But then one day, on the first of June, The little girl ran to the fence -- the old man wasn't there. And, somehow she knew he was never coming beck. So she went back to her little room, took a crayon.
And wrote, "Whoever find this, I love you, Whoeve find this, Ineed you, I even got no one to talk to, So, whoever find this, I love you." ~ 2003年02月22日 19:29:47

Today afternoon, I have a wonderful discussion with 3 other (non-)degree students, including Sharon. The tutor is Josi (Josephine), we've chatted a lot of things andd issues. Knowing each other background, sharing our opinions on certain issues; like the welfare system of HK, the war on Iraq, bird flu and Josi Egypt's trip with her boy friend (now, her husband), also her experience in China.
And she said, comparing the 4 countries, the US, Egypt, mainland China and HK, she said she liked to live in HK rather than the other 3. What would be the opinions of HK citizens on her ideas?
HK is (was) really a lovely place.... (I mean, before the handover)
