Looking for my roots: Public art

My trip was full of reunion. My ex flatmate Peter Ning when I was in Canada and his Wife Vanny my Uni of Windsor friend from Hong Kong took me to places I had not been. There is a Garden of historical significance to my roots, created by the clans men of both my dad, the Kwong Ning Cantonese, and my mum's Cantonese Hakka.

 I found recorded History, my Great grand Father, an educated Cantonese , a Siew Cai left China to manage a project clearing the jungle to plant rubber.

My mum was born here, she and my Dad were among the first children of these clan to be born in Sarawak.

This Mr Kong was the first of Mum's clan to lead her people to come.

They have huge slats of memorial plagues,

This Mr. Deng was the first leader of my Dad's clan.

With my friend Vanny.

For my save the world meme, it is important for future generations to know their roots. Lest they forget the hardship their forefather went through.
