A Bridge Too Far
In 2002, I went to Gansu, China and I
witnessed the suffering, extreme poverty and hardship of villagers, old folks
and children. ① I believed that, as an architect, I could do
something for them. I started the Wu Zhi
Qiao (bridge to China) idea in 2003. It
was a crazy idea and many thought that it was “mission impossible”. I endured and in 2005 built my first Wu Zhi
Qiao (無止橋)in Maosi
village, Gansu with my students of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). ② To us, it was “a bridge too far, a dream
comes true” (良穚助學夢成真).
We followed up and built them a school in 2007. ③
桥无止境
2002年,我去到中国甘肃,注意到当地村民、老人和孩子正在遭受的贫穷和困境。① 我深信,作为一个建筑师,我应该为他们做点什么。于是在2003年,我开始有了“无止桥”的设想。这是一个大胆的想法,很多人都认为它是“不可能完成的任务”。在我的坚持下,2005年我和香港中文大学的同学们建成了第一座“无止桥”,② 也就是“良桥助学梦成真”项目。随后我们继续跟进,在2007年为他们建成了一所学校。③
