CHUNG CHOW/RICHMOND NEWS
Peek-a-boo into a new year. Emma, 4, makes an incense prayer for the Lunar NewYear at the Lingyen Mountain Temple.
Year-old flamestill burns bright
The big hand had just ticked a few secondspassed 4:30 p.m. on a cold, sunny late wintersafternoon when a glow emerged from the blackof the Massey Tunnel and lit a fuse under a city.
Its almost a year to the day when theOlympic flame arrived in Richmond fromDelta, igniting a passion never seen before inthe city.
Tens of thousands of star-struck people linedthe streets of the Olympic Torch route, creatingan atmosphere that will live long in the mindsof Richmondites.
Many can remember where they were on thatroute and can vividly recall their emotions asthey waited and waited and then finally caughttheir first glimpse of the flame.
That unforgettable day is etched into thememory of Bob Mukai a senior and lifelongSteveston resident, who was one of the luckyfew to bear the torch in his home town.
I was nervous that morning for sure,because I was wondering how I could carry itfor 300 metres and not drop it, said Mukai,who uses a wheelchair.
I had been practicing a lot before that day,but I was still worried. When I saw the torchcoming towards me, I thought, Oh wow, mytimes coming.
I remember thinking I cant flub this one,I cant mess it up, as there were thousands ofpeople there.
Chinese contribution ignored: Society
The Chinese contribution tothe building of B.C. should beproperly recognized in the edu-cation system.
Thats the view of theCanadians for ReconciliationSociety, which hosted a pressconference in Richmond yes-terday (Thursday) to highlightwhat it brands a vacuum inB.C. history.
The society which choseRichmond for the event dueto its high Chinese population is sending to each of the
provincial NDP and Liberalparty leadership candidates adocument to sign and pledge toaffect more acknowledgementof Chinese history, should theywin their respective races.
Richmond school trusteeChak Au is one of the societyssupporters who believes, B.C.schools could be doing moreto include what the Chineseand other minority groups havedone for the province.
Its always good for stu-dents to have a deeper under-standing of the history and thecontributions made by the dif-ferent groups, said Au.
I really think its better forfostering a mutual respect andId like to see more programs inthe curriculum in recognition ofwhat these groups contributedto the country and province.
This is all from a perspec-tive of Canadian history, as ournation was built by differentgroups at different times and isstill being developed.
Au added that he thinks, Itsgood for students to understandthis process and therefore makeour society more inclusive.
It would be great to see (theleadership candidates) taking astand on this, he said.
Bill Chu, chair of theVancouver-based society, saidthe organization wants to makeserious suggestions to all theparty leadership candidates.
We will be sending (thepledge) to all the candidatestoday for them to sign and makea promise. Thats the measureof people power and it will beinteresting who signs it and whodoes not, Chu said.
In the case of Richmond,more than half the city isChinese or Asian and thats oneof the reasons weve decided tohold this event here.

I hated washingdishes ...
Sam Lau, ofacclaimed RichmondChinese restaurantZen, thinks he
perhaps made theright career decisionin becoming a topChinese chef.
on this dayFebruary 4
2004 Facebook, amainstream online social
network is founded by MarkZuckerberg.
Chu:We need to bridge massive gap in B.C. historyAlso, with such a high popula-
tion of Chinese in Richmond, webelieve its incumbent upon ourRichmond MLAs to demand morerecognition for their Chinese con-stituents.
More needs to be done to rec-
ognize Chinese history here in B.C.and Canada. At high school here,theres not a whole lot of talk aboutChinese history or what they havedone here.
The Chinese have been heresince day one of B.C., he added.
We need to address that massive
gap in the understanding of whowe are, we simply cant allow it tocontinue.
Chu said the society will be ask-ing every leadership candidate foran undertaking to lead, promoteand support the passage of motionsto the effect that the history of
the Chinese Canadians in B.C. beacknowledged.
This could be achieved in theform of learning outcomes in theeducation system, Chu said.
We will let people know whosigns the agreement and whodoesnt.
Remembering the actualmoment he was handed theOlympic Torch by fellowSteveston senior and former class-mate Jim Kojima, Bob Mukai saidhe tried his best to slow it all downand soak it all up.
For me, it was a very historicalmoment, he said.
My grandfather had immi-grated to Steveston and my fathergrew up here, as did I.
It was a very emotionalmoment when I actually carried itfor that 300 metres.
I remember having a tear inmy eye because my father wasntthere to see it, he passed away acouple of years before. But it wasstill a very special moment.
Mukais buddy, Kojima, simi-larly recalls dealing with nervesand excitement on the day thetorch arrived in Richmond.
I knew my family, includinggrandchildren, would be at thestart of my run I was also beinginterviewed by Shaw (TV) prior tomy run and I did not know what toexpect, Kojima said.
As I got close by bus to whereI was running, there was a largesign, saying GO GRANDPA GOheld up by my grandchildren,which made me a little nervous,but excited to know my family andfriends were there.
When it was lit, I seemed toget more energy and started to runrather quickly and it took me a lotless than three minutes. At the endof my run, my high school class-mate, Robert Mukai, was waitingfor me to light his torch. This wasvery special.
Standing with Kojima andMukai that special day was their
friend, Coun. Bill McNulty.One word, for McNulty, cap-
tures the Olympic Torch relay dayin Richmond, euphoria.
I remember that whole dayhaving a feeling of euphoria thatthis mystical athletic endeavourwas coming to our city, he said.
I think it was then that it reallykicked in that the Olympic Gameshad arrived in our city. I canremember this intense feeling ofnational pride. This was our finesthour.
To be the mayor of a city the
size of Richmond is one thing.Its quite another to be the
mayor of a city that jumped ontothe Olympic bandwagon with bothfeet and produced the biggest turnout to greet the torch than anyother on the Canada-wide run.
There was a great crowd ofpeople and everyone was dressedin Canadian gear, and I had afew moments to talk to the torch-bearers, said Brodie, who wasJohnny on the spot when theflame passed through the tunneland stopped briefly at No. 5 Road
and Steveston Highway.I remember telling (the torch-
bearers) how very proud we wereall feeling at that time.
At that moment there was areality that it was finally actuallyhappening, the biggest sportingevent in the world was here.
And when I saw the crowds ofpeople already there, I knew thatRichmond would turn out in bignumbers that night.
Later that night, as RickHansen rolled into Minoru Arenawith the flame aglow, en route tolighting the community cauldron,Brodie remembers looking outfrom the stage at the thousands ofpeople whod squeezed in to wit-ness a small piece of history beingmade.
It was a very positive experi-ence. It was right up there (withthe best), he said.
It was a great thrill, as wehad hoped that Richmond wouldengage in the Games and thatproved to be the case that night.
I remember having tear in my eye: MukaiTorchbearers, mayor recall special memories of one year ago

Now is your chance to decide whetherthe City of Richmond should spend up to$650,000 on keeping one of the Biennalepublic artworks.
The public online survey opened up onThursday with two questions; one askingyou to agree or not to the city spendingthe money from the public art reserve anda second asking you which one of five thecity should keep, with a none of the aboveoption.
You will have until Feb. 18 to make yourmark.
The controversial Lenin/Miss Mao pieceat Alderbridge and Elmbridge ways is valuedat $700,000, Wind Waves at Garry Point has
a $400,000 price tag and Water #10 on themiddle arm dyke at Cambie Road could costaround $600,000.
The city is stressing, however, that the$650,000 in the public art pot is not tax dol-lars and, instead, is funds accumulated fromdevelopers contributions in lieu of installingpublic art.
According to the city, funds in the reservemay only be used to support public art proj-ects in the city.
The survey can be found at www.rich-mond.ca/publicart. Printed copies (Englishand Chinese) can be found in the RichmondCultural Centre, 7700 Minoru Gate and cityhall, 6911 No. 3 Rd.

And if the Executor wontprovide an accountingBeneciaries of Estates sometimes complain that the Executor of the Estate does not communicate, so they dont know thestatus of the Estate and their inheritance. What the beneciaries can do here, is bring a claim against the Executor underSection 99 of the B.C. TrusteeAct, and force the Executor to pass hisAccounts before a Supreme Court Registrar. In thecase of Bernhard v.Wist (reasons released this week), the children of the deceased brought such proceedings against theExecutor. The Estate is not large (about $430,000) but the Executor did not provide an accounting for over a year. TheCourt in a lengthy and careful review of the facts, passed the Executors accounts, but reduced his fee andthe parties were told to resolve other issues between them. It isnt that the Executor did a bad job, butit appears relations between the Executor and the beneciaries soured and the accounting which stillshould have been provided, was not.
