In Hong Kong, there's a tiny island that used to produce a lot of salt.

Just 10 years ago, in teens, I was a deserted island with trees growing into walls and ceilings collapsing into houses.

Okay.

To the outside world, this Hakka village was notable for being Christian.

The Chan family converted to Catholicism after missionaries set up a church on the island in the 18 eighties.

But as Hong Kong developed, the Villagers left for opportunities in the big city.

Chan left when he was 12 years old and went abroad to the U.
