Tribute to Grandmaster HA Han Hong

Grandmaster HA Han Hong was a native of Ko Ming County, Kwangtung Province, China.  He received a good family education and became a distinguished leader due to his comprehension of martial arts.  As a young boy, he met Teat Yun who was traveling throughout southern China.  Grandmaster HA was accepted as a student after rigorous testing to assess his character.  Testing continued throughout his early training until he became a disciple.  He learned the secrets of the style and Chinese orthopedics.  Upon completing his training, Grandmaster HA was given the task to spread Yau Kung Moon and use his knowledge and skills to help humanity as his master returned to Sil Lum Temple.    In 1924, Grandmaster HA set up his first school in Kwangtung, China.  Due to his Chinese medicine skills, Grandmaster HA became very famous.  In 1936, he was an instructor and physician for the Command of the Military Police team which won the Kwangtung Provincial Martial Arts Championships.  During War II, Grandmaster HA set up ambulance teams for Canton under guidance of the Red Cross for the League of Nations.    He continued to enrich his skills until the Communists took over China in 1949.  He relocated and established a second school in Hong Kong.  Due to his humbleness and contributions of public service, Grandmaster HA was highly regarded in the martial arts circle.  With Grandmaster HA passing away in 1965,  the administration of training was left to his only disciple, his son, HA Kwok Cheung Sijo. At present, there are about fifteen schools in Hong Kong organized as the Hong Kong Yau Kung Moon Sports Association.
