The last survivor of Wong Chuk Yeung



A few weeks ago, I wrote about Wong Chuk Yeung village, where only one survivor is left. Since then, I have seen him a number of time in Sai Kung town, at Park N Shop, Wellcome, and around the Jockey Club center buying Mark Six lotteries. Today, I managed to get this photo of him. He walks all the way to Sai Kung town and back, about 8 kilometers. The return walk is all the way uphill. The only dog that's left does not accompany him. (Previously, 3 mongrels used to walk with him all the way to town and back.)

For a man living by himself, he appears to be in relatively good physical and mental health. But the loneliness must be unbearable.
