We all know the big story: once described a “barren rock”, Hong Kong has been transformed into an international city thanks to its people’s perseverance and creativity.

But, what about the little stories of each of the individual “transformers” who have contributed to the magnificent changes to the city over the years?

Well, RTHK TV’s special series Transformers (香港有你) provides insight on just that with a cross-generational approach to Hong Kong success stories.

Produced to mark the HKSAR’s 20th Anniversary, the series provides a glimpse of how aspiring younger generations, armed with their drive and determination, have learnt from role models and mentors to excel in their chosen field – and contribute to Hong Kong.

The series consists of 10 episodes each featuring a pair of outstanding personalities of two generations from a specific sector.

In the first of 10 episodes aired on May 17, architects Raymond Fung and James Law talked about Hong Kong’s scarcity of land and how this taught them about the proper use of open space.
