Regarding the recent cancellation of organ donation registration by many people, both of them hope that more Hong Kong people will give selflessly.

Heart transplant patient Tsang Wing-keng: “People always have to leave. When they leave, the internal organs in the body are still alive and usable. Why can’t they be passed on to the next generation or given to other people? At present, most of them are buried in Hong Kong. , Most of them will be cremated, it seems a pity to rashly burn things you don’t want.”

Ma Changchu, a heart transplant patient: “I have experienced heart transplant patients for the first time. I feel that we need the selflessness of the donor. Our consideration is the first. Just now you said that the government checks things. Frankly speaking, I didn’t think regarding it, because the patient may be sick. I’m regarding to faint, I don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow.”
