Wow... the Canadian Chinese community is so supportive. They started with $3,000 scholarship and the last scholarship was more than $40,000. And it interesting to hear Richard Wong challenging the rest of the Chinese community from different cities to up the fund-raising ante. Phew .. $200,000 training costs and expected to rise to $250,000? Does it include accommodation? Certainly without Canadian's skating association and a helping hand from the community, it is difficult to concentrate on training leading to Sochi. Sponsorship is not easy to come and unless one's parents is super rich, assistance is definitely required. Kudos to the Chinese community for stepping up to assist. I am sure Patrick will never forget the reaching hands, and will give back some day in his own way to the community who stood behind him with pride and encouragement.
