Yam Kim Fai and Pak Suet Sin

Since small, I have never been expose to stuffs like computer games, hand phone, mp3, gameboy or even Power Rangers as well as Ultraman.


All this terminology sounds very alien and not friendly to me.


So, how's it during my childhood days?


Well, we keep that for next time.

But today I publish this post in memory of two great idols that none of any of my friends will share with.


I love only some of their songs but I miss the most are their spirit.


And the one I am paying tribute to are Yam Kim Fai and Pak Suet Sin.

Left: Pak Suet Sin and Right: Yam Kim Fai

You know who are they?

As I am continuing writing, my heart can really feels it.


The feeling is like asking me to write everything about this two opera stars and let the whole world to know how great they are.


A brief history of them.


Yam Kim Fai and Pak Suet Sin are both best friends and best working partner on the stage opera.


One of my favourite shots will definitely be their "Dai Lui Fah" (The Princess of Chang Ping)


Yam Kim Fai dismissed in the year of 1989.


Today, I wonder whoever in Hong Kong who don't know Yam Kim Fai and Pak Suet Sin


They uphold and preserve the art of civilisation that existed since few centuries ago until today.


Yam Kim Fai and Pak Suet Sin was a life friends that I am always envy of because I will never get one today.


They were sincere and tendentiously intend to widespread our Chinese Opera that is extinguishing nowadays.


They were examples to all Opera Stars and their lost can still be felt even after nearly 20 years.


Today, no matter how much I know about the modern world, there will be always this space to spend for opera.


Indeed, it is one of my interest and they inspired me a lot.

I really hope that opera will still be well-received and no regrets for life when I can listen to the best music of opera during my last breath, though I am still young.


Oh God..I really can't ever tell you about the beauty and significance of the Cantonese Opera in me.


Well, it's all a tribute and honour to Yam Bak Sisters.

I wouldnt have love cantonese language that belongs to my maternal grandparents as much as I would without both of you.
