Fredie speaks many languages. He has learned Greek and Sanskrit in Athens and Mumbai, and loves to explore different languages and cultures. He has a particular interest in promoting cultural relativism and facilitating inter-religious understandings.. He is also a founding member of WorKhmer, an NGO fighting human trafficking in Cambodia. Fredie provides various services for ethic minorities members, for example, welfare enquiry, legal consultation, job referral, and even Cantonese language workshops. Fredie cares about members of his ethnic minorities service center and will always talk to them while distributing the masks. The members treat Fredie as their friend, and trust he will be there to give assistance. Wide diversity of members in his service center coming from different Hong Kong districts, different working class, different races, they are all members of Fredie’s ethic minorities service center.
We invited Fredie to have a walk with us from Yau Ma Tei to Tsim Sha Tsui. He disturbs masks along the way, while introducing us to the members in these districts. Along the street of Yau Ma Tei, walking by the small stores in Jordan, all the way to ChungKing Mansion, we traced the walking path of Fredie. Fredie uses his footsteps, then, as the foundation upon which to draw a map of his service and good deeds.
