As a primary school pupil, he spent most of his time hanging around public housing estate parks. To protect himself, he joined a triad, setting him on a path of crime. Theft, fighting, and debt collection became his routine, and by secondary school, he had started using drugs. “I thought doing drugs was the only way to look cool. How could I call myself a triad member if I didn’t take drugs?” he recalled. Over 27 years, he accumulated 46 criminal convictions, committing nearly every crime except sexual offences. The Awakening: A Final Chance at Redemption “Even the correctional officers recognised me,” Sai Keung said with a bitter smile. Every time he was released from prison, he vowed to quit drugs but lacked the discipline to follow through. At forty, after his final sentence, he made a life-changing decision to accept help from a social worker and move into a drug rehabilitation centre. During two years at the centre, Sai Keung rebuilt his life by learning discipline through tasks such as mowing lawns and painting walls, all while enduring the pain of withdrawal. For someone with a long history of addiction and triad involvement, rebuilding his self-image was no easy feat. “It’s not just about rushing to find a job – it’s about discovering the kind of life you truly want,” explained one of the social workers. Sai Keung’s persistence, along with support from SideBySide, helped him complete his rehabilitation programme and secure housing and employment. 125 | 2024-2025 | 年報 ANNUAL REPORT 社 COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND CRIME PREVENTION SERVICE
