"My years of learning started in Belgium, Antwerp, my country of birth. They were hard years but the good time I had with my teachers made them worthwhile. Luck being on my side, I befriended the Leong Cheung family in 1951 and they taught me Chinese Kungfu. If not for the help and care of my teachers, I would perhaps not have been here today. Chinese Kungfu and traditional medicine made me the person I am today, strong and very healthy." |
