[Hong Kong] Between July 18 – 22, Golden Year 9 (2012), Hong Kong Center held a Vegan Awareness Activity in Wan Tsai MTR station for five consecutive days. Flyers promoting the benefit of the vegan diet, Master’s book From Crisis to Peace: The Organic Vegan Way is the Answer, and plant-based recipe books were distributed to the public by volunteer disciples during those days, which coincided with the popular annual Hong Kong Book Fair. Since Wan Tsai MTR station was one of the major exits to Hong Kong Convention Center where the book fair was held, the station was crowded with people who were attending the event. In addition, many surrounding shops, banks and market places have received these vegan promoting materials.

An on-duty staff member from Hong Kong Lands Department worked with us every day from morning till night. He not only carefully read the vegan material with great interest, but, on his own initiative, helped to rearrange and secure the flyer stands many times after they had been blown off balance by strong winds.

For these five days, a total of twenty thousand copies of flyers, six thousand copies of “From Crisis to Peace,” and ten thousand copies of vegan recipe books were distributed. We thank God that we were able to distribute this life affirming literature, and pray that people everywhere embrace the compassionate and healthful plant-based diet.

Join the Campus Carnival Fair

Hong Kong Center joined the annual Campus Carnival Fair of Sha Tin College on November 17, Golden Year 9 (2012). The vegan booth organized by Hong Kong Center was one of the most attractive. When walking into the Food Court Area, visitors would see clearly a big sign of “BE VEGAN, MAKE PEACE.” It has been six consecutive years that Hong Kong Center first took part in this campus fair to promote the veg diet, with appreciation and support by the school principal, teachers and parents growing each year.

All the vegan food provided during the fair was freshly made on site, such as vegan burgers, dumplings, sushi, fried noodles and potato salads. They were all delicious. There has been a fast increase of veg food lovers for the past years. This year, our sales have reached a record high among six years. Besides that, flyers, vegan recipes and copies of “From Crisis to Peace” were also distributed during the fair. Quite a few students interested in our booth also volunteered to distribute vegan promoting materials to their school mates.

It has been a successful event. We not only made a monetary donation to Sha Tin College, who organized this fair, but also gave a big box of books with many copies of “From Crisis to Peace” and vegan recipes to them as a gift. It is truly believed that by means of similar vegan promoting activities, veganism will take root among all school campuses in no time.
