Title Hundreds Mourn Hong Kong's Rights Champion Shiu Ka-chun Leaves Lasting Legacy

The passing of Shiu Ka-chun, a renowned advocate for prisoners' rights in Hong Kong, has left a profound impact on the community. Hundreds gathered at the Methodist International Church on Saturday to pay their respects to this champion of social justice.

Throughout his life, Shiu dedicated himself to supporting those behind bars. As a social worker and university lecturer, he represented his profession in Hong Kong's legislature and became a prominent figure during the 2014 Umbrella Movement. His unwavering commitment to prisoners' rights earned him international recognition.

A Life of Unwavering Dedication

Shiu's crusade for justice began when he was jailed for participating in the Umbrella Movement. During his 163-day imprisonment, he clashed with guards over prison welfare and continued to champion the cause after his release. This experience only strengthened his resolve, leading him to establish Wall-fare, a support group that helped families navigate the complexities of the prison system.

Wall-fare's impact was profound, especially during Hong Kong's 2019 protests, when thousands were imprisoned. Shiu's pen pal program connected people behind bars with those on the outside, fostering a sense of community and humanity. His determination inspired others to join him in this fight for justice.

A Legacy that Transcends

Shiu's passing leaves a void in the community, but his legacy will continue to inspire future generations. As novelist Chiang noted, He devoted himself because of his Christian faith and his commitment to society. That's very admirable. His unwavering dedication to making prison life more bearable is a testament to his character.

In his final months, Shiu struggled with stomach cancer. In his writings, he reflected on the nature of joy and suffering, saying, Joy and suffering are two extremes and both are necessary to life. His faith remained unwavering, even in the face of adversity.

As we remember Shiu Ka-chun, we honor a life dedicated to social justice. His legacy will continue to inspire others to follow in his footsteps, ensuring that his work will not be forgotten.

Enjoy the little things in life. For one day, you may look back and realize they were the big things. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
