WONG Ching-hang 王証恒 (fiction writer, journalist; Hong Kong/Scotland) was born in Hong Kong. In 2021, the Hong Kong Arts Development Council funded the publication of his debut short story collection, Southbound Truck 南歸貨車. Writing in a realistic style, he focuses mainly on Hong Kong’s New Territories West in his work with the aim of bringing to light how the lower-class lives and the roots of their difficulties. His first collection features a teacher, truck driver, detective, masseuse, welder, construction worker, and dock worker; his stories are set in the New Territories and beyond, which enable him to examine the complexity of cross-border population movement and the rapid changes the city has seen in recent years. His participation is made possible by the Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation Global.
