    Kwok Kin, who was born with 10% vision, loves photography. Even though he can only see things within 0.3 metre, his passion for photography is unbridled. He cannot see things clearly with his eyes, but he feels the world with the rest of his body. The other senses of visually impaired people, especially their sense of smell and touch, are much stronger than normal people. Kwok Kin makes use of this strength to develop his unique world of photography: if he can smell the flowers and feel them blooming in the trees, he can take a photo.

    The world of photography is not only Kwok Kin’s playground , where he can unleash his boundless imagination, but it is also his eyes, allowing him to see.

    Kwok Kin often goes the long way due to his visual impairment, but because of the long way, he can see more.

    In this episode, our host Karan Cholia will travel around Hong Kong and take photos with Kwok Kin and Sightfeeling photographer Fishing Tsoi.

    • It’s ok to feel sad

      It’s ok to feel sad

      Anyone can experience varying degrees of emotional distress, and if one does not receive appropriate assistance, the situation may become more difficult to manage by the minute. For someone living in a place with language barriers and cultural differences, how can one emerge from the shadows when dealing with emotional challenges?

      Nayyar, a Pakistani woman who has been living in Hong Kong for 26 years since her marriage, is a mother of four. In recent years, she experienced the loss of friends and family members, encountered marital issues, and her youngest son was severely injured in a traffic accident. She began experiencing despair and emotional distress. Later, when volunteers came through with anti-epidemic supplies, she learnt about counselling services and decided to reach out and seek help. Through counselling, Nayyar learnt emotional management, and gradually regained her confidence. She now understands the importance of self-love and has developed a closer bond with her children.

      In this episode, our host Omme chats with Nayyar and her family. Ethnic minority mental health counsellors and outreach social workers also share insights on identifying individuals in need of assistance, raising awareness for cultural sensitivity, and making them feel comfortable enough to open up about the challenges they are facing.

      We are Baba

      Minhas Rashad, who came to Hong Kong in the 1980s, has lived in Hong Kong for over 30 years. Fluent in Cantonese, he masters the language's colloquialisms and brings joy to neighbourhood residents with his local humour. He has four sons, aged 14 to 26. As far as raising children goes, he has his own set of theories. He thinks Hong Kong parents attach too much importance to their children's academic results. For him, nothing is more important than a happy childhood for his sons. He gives them a lot of freedom to realise their potentials. While Father’s Day is not celebrated in Pakistan, for him, every day is Father’s Day.

      Shokat Nawaz, the father of our Pakistani host Omme, came to Hong Kong in 1990 and attended school in the city. For his daughter, he is an unconventional Pakistani father. He hoped his daughter Omme could learn Chinese properly in secondary school and so transferred her to a mainstream school. He also encouraged her to study hard and give back to the community in future. Omme thinks her father is very open and has a great deal of respect for him.

      The two Pakistani fathers have lived in Hong Kong for many years – their children were all born and bred in Hong Kong.

      Father's Day is approaching, they will share with us the stories of them and their children.

      Tracy Wong, in her early 20s, was born with cerebral palsy. As she has limited mobility, she uses a wheelchair to get ground and has attended special schools since she was small. Two years ago, she fell in love with Mirror member Anson Lo, drawn to his positive attitude. Tracy used to have negative thoughts, but Lo, who is always positive and constantly taking on challenges, has given her positive energy. She goes on photo-taking excursions with her friend Anna, who also has limited mobility. She once went to a shopping centre early in the morning to attend an event, but such activities are not easy for wheelchair users.

      Marish came to Hong Kong from the Philippines in 2017 as a foreign domestic helper for Anna’s family. Since she spends a lot of time with Anna, she is also drawn to Mirror and likes Keung To most. She loves music from different countries, such as the Korean boy band BTS, so she shares information with Anna from time to time. Transcend boundaries, the pair gets along very well.

      Tracy and Anna are physically challenged, whereas Marish is ethnic minority. They all think it is good to have a favourite singer. As long as they do not over indulge, having an idol can add joy to everyday life and give them strength.

      In this episode, our host Angel will talk to the girls about this kind of energy.

      All about My Mama

      For the past three decades, one thing has remained on top of Tam Sze-wai's priority list: focus on looking after her son, Kenny So, who has cerebral palsy. Today, her son is all grown up. He did well in school, graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong and now works as a full-time social worker and part-time lyricist. Mrs So has devoted phenomenal amounts of time and effort to help her son blend into society. She believes that the least a mother should do is teach her children to distinguish between right and wrong, bring them up in a decent environment and with good morals, and tell them not to constantly worry about being taken advantage of. A mother should talk to her children about anything and everything, and they will be willing to pour their hearts out to her.

      Michelle Leung’s son, Tony, has mild intellectual disability. Since he was young, Tony has shown an interest in music and drumming. In order to help her son develop his potentials, Michelle often accompanies him to drumming practice. When Tony plays the drums, she sings. Meanwhile, Michelle spends a lot of time reading with Tony to help him improve his expression skills. From a young age, Tony has enjoyed chatting about topics in newspapers and books with his mum. He is now the drummer of a band. Michelle hopes children like his son can grow up in a more inclusive society, where they have more recognition and opportunities.
