As Leung Shek Lun was familiar with the communities, preparation for the Jiao Festival ran very smoothly
SL Leung was familiar with community member and it was conducive to running village affairs. He was the organizer of Nga Tsin Wai the 28th (1966) Jiao festival in that year. Besides, at that Jiao Festival, there was a shortage of manpower and the neighbourhood from Tung Tau Estate came to help. Those from Kwai Tung House and Hing Tung House helped cook the vegetarian meals, while others prepared the midnight snacks in the Jiao Shed. With the fund-raising for Tung Wah Group of Hospitals underway at the same time, the whole neighbourhood was very busy. Besides, a triad member had earlier threatened to burn the Jiao Shed. Thanks to the many strategies he had learned from years of hawking experience, SL Leung applied the ‘dark force for dark force’ strategy as a solution. He gave lucky money to a ‘dark force’, invited them to guard the Jiao Shed at night, offered them with midnight snacks and even had their brothers dine at the banquets.
