Strategies for searching missing classmates

At the 40^th anniversary reunion dinner, the Celebration Committee received both moral and financial support from fellow students to extend our efforts to search for our ‘missing old fellows’. Subsequently, a committee titled “MISSING CTS 1971” / “尋昇社” was formed on 28^th March 2012. Names of members are as follows:

Chairman: Adrian Hung

Treasurer: Clara Ho

Members: Cannie Tong, David Yeung, Nancy Yeung, Irene Ko, Susanna Lee, Robert Chu (USA), Simon Fan (Australia), Clarence Au and Susan Keung (Canada)

After much discussion, strategies for searching missing classmates were worked out. Advertisements would take two forms, online advertisement, Google and Facebook, and advertisements in newspapers in Hong Kong, Canada, Australia and U.S.A. David Yeung was entrusted with the important task on newspaper advertisements.

We have set up Facebook page:
http://facebook.com/taishing1971 and link with other relevant Facebook pages. Hyperlinks should be added at the relevant websites of Primary and Secondary Schools. The committee members exerted their efforts and reaped their harvest. A number of fellow students were tracked down: WA Cheung, WL Cheung, CS Shum, TK Wong, and a few others.

After forming the MisSing CTS 1971 committee, we found 9 out of 37 missing classmates, that is, 25% of missing classmates. Four of them are then actively involved in our activities, two were dead with the other three refuse to reunite with us.
