ment

Mr Tse is disabled from polio. His involve-

in

rehabilitation

dates

back

to

1971. He was Honorary Secretary of the Sports Association

for the Physically Handicapped (1971-73) and after 1973 a member of the Executive Committee. He participated as a Hong Kong delegate in the Stoke Mandeville International Games and Commonwealth Paraplegic Games in 1970. Following the establish- ment of the Rehabilitation Development Co-ordinating Committee, he was appointed to two of its sub-committees. He is also a member of the Hong Kong Physically Handicapped and Able-Bodied Association and the Hong Kong Federation of Handicapped Youths. He was invited to speak on the subject of "Attitudes Affecting Rehabilitation" in the World Congress on Mental Health held in Manila in 1981. By his own example, Mr Tse has demonstrated how a disabled person can overcome his disabilities and lead a successful life; his major contribution probably lies in his persistent efforts to cultivate in the general public

a greater awareness of the needs of the disabled and of their

abilities.

MBE (Honorary).

Mr KWAN Tak-hing

Mr Kwan started his career some sixty years ago as a Cantonese opera trainee. He has a special interest in Chinese Kung Fu as well as in Chinese calligraphy and has become a well known figure in both fields. He is still active in the film industry and has played the leading role in almost 100 films. In all his productions, he inevitably portrays loyalty, courtesy and other human virtues, and a number of his films were selected for exhibition in the 1981 Hong Kong International Film Festival. Mr Kwan is also an accomplished bone-setter and has won recognition for benevolence and genuine care for the sick and

poor.
