In a break with tradition, we feature two Brothers in this issue. They have long gone to their reward. Yet it can be truly said that they were largely responsible for establishing the Lasallian presence in Hong Kong and setting it on a firm foundation. They were the first two Directors/Principals of St Joseph’s College.

Brother Anthony is sometimes referred to as a Hong Kong product, not in the commercial sense but because he was born and bred there and all his life he was conscious of his roots.

In the heart of Kuala Lumpur, the spirit of La Salle came alive on 16 May 2025 as St. John’s International Secondary School and St. John’s International Primary School joined hands with St. John’s Institution and SK St. John to celebrate Founder’s Day. The event reflected a deep commitment to the values and mission of St. John Baptist de La Salle, the pioneer of modern education and a tireless advocate for the youth.

A film called The Quiet Man was produced in 1952, directed by John Ford and starring John Wayne as the quiet man. The film has aged well. If there was ever a quiet man in real life, it was Brother Pius. He was rarely known to shout or even raise his voice.

The National Lasallian Vocations Team (NLVT) visited De La Salle John Bosco College in the past month, bringing a new perspective on the challenges facing the school, whether current or upcoming. The Lasallian family of DLSJBC was more than happy to welcome the De La Salle Brothers and Lasallian Partners of De La Salle Philippines to enlighten not just the students but also those who nurture them in the school setting. This warm visit did not feel like an activity; it felt like a family gathering.
