"This event means a lot to us. We have understood much about the change of To Kwa Wan from the oldies. We also understand what oldies need is our concerns. 
Having learnt the skills to communicate with oldies, we also get more information about the history of Hong Kong. We are impressed by their perseverance and passion to their lives and concerns to Hong Kong."
