Every mother in the world wishes her son a successful career, yet in this story the main character Siu-Yu actually wants to become a "dap pang" worker—a bamboo-scaffolder.
Artist's Statement
Watching workers on the bamboo scaffolding during class time is one of my memories from school. With this individual memory, along with some creativity, the story Dap Pang Man was born.
