Four years later he founded Cheers Gallery, which was the first integrated retail shop in the Social Services Building under the Association. In 2002, he helped establish the MentalCare Connect Co. Limited, a subsidiary of the Association that runs cleansing, retail, catering, publication and e-commerce businesses.
