Mr. Wong Sui Keung , Gary

A veteran Ving Tsun master, Mr. Wong has twice served as the chief referee of the Ip Man Ving Tsun Taolu (Forms) Match and was the referee at the Chinese Martial Arts Self-Attainment Award Display in 2019. He has also been a lecturer for four local universities for more than 19 years. In 2016 and 2017, he gave two lectures on Ving Tsun martial arts at Hong Kong Shue Yan University and the University of Hong Kong respectively. In 2021, he was invited to become an internship programmer tutor at Hong Kong Shue Yan University.

Ms. Wan Shuk Chun

Ms. Wan inherited the New Martial Hero Magazine, the only martial arts magazine in Hong Kong, from her late husband Mr. Liao Kwong Wa. Founded by martial arts seniors in 1970, the magazine was taken over by Master Mok Pui On and Mr. Liao, before handing over to Ms. Wan. She has since turning the magazine into an online media while at the same time organized martial arts competitions and exchange tours in China and Hong Kong.

Mr. Leung Kwok Fung, Andy

Mr. Leung founded the Practical Shaolin at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 1995. The Society adheres to the principle of imparting knowledge and techniques about Hung Gar, TaiChi Praying Mantis and Law Hon Mun with equal emphasis on practice and theory. It is dedicated to the transmission of Chinese martial arts. 

In recent years, he places his focus on collecting videos of martial arts seniors, their performances and demonstrations; developing instructions and guides for sets or forms; compiling magazines related to martial arts from the 1950s to the 1990s, and categorizing and collecting historical figures, recipes and moves of each school.
