Our Stories 01. A Sunshine Boy - Sawant

Hello everyone, I am Sawant Gurung (高施華). I am 12 years old now. I was born in Hong Kong and have not visited Nepal since I was born. I can speak Nepalese, English and Cantonese.

I am a Form 1 student and my school is in Kwun Tong. It takes me 2hours for traveling to and from my school.

When I am free, I usually play basketball with my friends and also visit SAHTC.


I like Hong Kong very much; there is beautiful place and delicious food. I can also play various sports activities. Moreover, I do not feel being discriminated by local Chinese. However, I find that some place in Yuen Long is really dirty. That is the thing about Hong Kong that I dislike most.

In the future, I hope that I can be a policeman. It is because I have seen many people fighting and taking drugs in public area. I hope that I can arrest all these bad people.
