Aged cleric still cares for the elderly when others don't
Pastor Lee Mo-fan has devoted his life to helping elderly people neglected by families or who have simply fallen through the cracks
Lee Mo-fan's character is best measured through the stories of those he has devoted his life to serving.
People such as Tse Kam-wo, who at 75 was abandoned by his family, and found lying untreated in a Guangzhou hospital with cataracts and two broken legs.
My motto is and has always been this: regardless of religion, region or ethnicity, one must always help those who need it or ask for it
People like Wong Wah, 86, a disabled homeless man, tossed out of a Mong Kok mall for sheltering on the fire escape and dumped in an empty shop.
Both were rescued by Lee, a church pastor who runs four homes for the elderly, where many have similar tales to tell.
"My motto is and has always been this: regardless of religion, region or ethnicity, one must always help those who need it or ask for it," Lee says.
Tse had gone to Guangzhou for a cataract operation in November 2009 when he was abandoned by his son, with no money and no identification papers.
