Mr Julius Tsui, the Founder and CEO of Dragon Page, said, “this is just a little token to show our great appreciation to our senior citizens, such as Mrs Lim, who have been unconditionally working so hard behind the scene to help our other Chinese people in the UK for so long. We have a lot to learn from them.” Tsui continued, “We also like to thank Spectrum Radio for giving us this opportunity to stop, reflect, and make time to communicate more with our senior who play a significant role in passing our rich Chinese culture to the next generation, and ensuring great values live on with us. We have been blessed by so many of these elderlies.”
