I have the honour of sifting through Chiu (Yan Tao) Sir's Kamching files that he accumulated over thirty years. Combing through the files and photographs has brought back many bitter sweet memories. I reaffirmed my belief that the two-year involvement in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award (DEA) Scheme and the subsequent five-year volunteer work with the Kamching Association have forever altered the texture and the course of my life.

One recurring facial expression that I have observed from the hundreds of photographs that I processed is that the Kamching activities had brought smiles and joy to the participants. Our Kamching brothers and sisters had given unselfishly our time, organised and participated in weekly outdoor activities continuously for over 25 years on limited financial resources until Chiu Sir was battling with his terminal cancer. I was honoured to serve under Chiu Sir along with my brothers and sisters for 5 years. Looking back at these five years, with the faded photographs as my witness, perhaps is the happiest time of my life. I would not trade anything for those precious times during which we served and entertained thousands upon thousands of Kamching friends. Though I have forgotten most of their names, their faces sure look familiar.
