VCD for South Asians
to Learn Cantonese

"Take active action for self enhancement!" is one of the slogans to encourage our ethnic minority members. We believe that learning Cantonese is a positive way for them to have better adjustment in Hong Kong society. "Easy Cantonese" series II is the second VCD that we have produced for South Asian friends to learn Cantonese. They can learn practical phrases and conversations through the situational dramas "Traveling by Ferry" and "Traveling by MTR" inside the VCD.

Our South Asian members provided full support to this VCD as they participated in the role of acting, narration and translation of Cantonese to Hindi, Urdu and Nepali. We are grateful to The Star Ferry Company Limited and MTR Corporation for their generous support of providing filming locations. We also give thanks to Mr. Gill Mohinder Paul Singh (Q Bo Bo, a popular TV star), who shared his experience in learning Cantonese in the VCD.

"Easy Cantonese" VCD series II is jointly produced by our Communications Centre and Project SASA (South Asians Support Alliance). It is one of the audio-visual programs in "Project Communications" which is sponsored by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust. For enquiries or request for the VCD, please feel free to call 2731 6264.
