A “different” childhood is how the children of Rev Don Wong describe their early years.
The bursts of laughter are hearty, the trickles of tears heartfelt as they tell of their adventures with their social entrepreneur dad – a man once ensnared by drugs but saved by the hand of God and set in high places because he learned to know His Name. (Psalm 91:14b KJV)

Ironically, after living vicariously through his dream and observing the shallowness of his life and that of his rich friends, I developed an allergic reaction to the mindless pursuit of personal success and happiness. Even in my primary school, I knew intuitively that there was something missing in my father’s life.
