Dear Friends
Today is World Refugee Day
Should be an important day in Hong Kong, since most older people here were refugees from the Mainland during/after the Communist takeover
And in HK there are thousands of asylum seekers who have been given temporary refugee status...some of them have been here for nearly 20 years .....no third country wants them....and HK doesn't want them either, but is being obliged by a UN agreement to look after them temporarily
See this message of Pope Benedict XVI in 2011: Jesus was a refugee

God bless all on my sick list, in HK,
Australia, China and other places,
- especially dear friends battling cancer.....
Thank you for a prayer
God bless!
