A Man of Charity
There was a time when, Mrs. Vaz head of Rumah Ozanam, an orphanage, called
him "The Fisherman" because for a few years, he caught and delivered many
fresh fishes to the orphans, sometimes, fishing the whole night till nearly
dawn, in the Petaling Jaya lake. On one occasion, Mrs. Vaz, herself,
counted what Master Wong caught, and delivered to the orphanage, over five
hundred fishes in a single night, with only a hook and a rod, all
alone, by himself within one night till nearly dawn. He also
donated catches of fishes to other places such as the Shelter Homes and
old folks homes due to plentiful catches. Master Wong dispenses
charity in many forms of donation e.g. in food, money and services.
Some of the ways he does is to give free healing treatment and training
to the poor, such as the Cheras Old Folks Home under the nuns - Little
Sisters of the Poor and also to all the clergy, nuns, brothers and other
religious orders so that they can serve God and humanity better if
they are healthy. Refunding the seminar fees to those students who
helped to bring in more sick people (that is why Master Wong’s Qi-Synergy
Company loses money every year and also due to high overhead expenses).
Raising money from the students and donating own money to worthwhile
projects requested by priests. Helping the Stella Maris Convent nuns
to raise some money to donate to their school for the poor in Kota Kinabalu
(Keningau). Even donating money to students instead of collecting
fees for expenses e.g. Mrs.Wong (Father Thomas Shum’s cook who had cancer
and received free treatment as well as personal cash donation from Master
Wong) of Stella Maris Church Tanjong Aru in Kota Kinabalu (Father Thomas
Shum-Parish Priest) and raising money and help from the students, to shift
her family and belongings to Macgatal from the Church (after her job termination).
He has also donated to other charity organisations and welfare homes in
cash, and in kind. Master Wong does all that without any reservation
for race, religion or social rank and he firmly believes, to help people
to help themselves. He always does not tolerate "LAZINESS"
and "DOES NOT CARE" ATTITUDE. He now dispenses
"compassion with wisdom" as a lot of people do not appreciate when
help is being given too freely, and they may even suspect there are ulterior
motives behind them. |
