¡i©ú³ø±M°T¡j"Magic has saved me", said magic fan Keanu Ho (¦óÞmÅï), 20, whom the Education Bureau (±Ð¨|§½) has awarded a Talent Development Scholarship (¤~ÃÀµo®i¼ú¾Çª÷) for his remarkable achievements in his studies and personal growth.

Keanu, who has been addicted to magic since he was a child, often borrows books about magic from libraries. He has secretly practised magic tricks in school. He used to have poor academic results and even quitted school at secondary 4. Not until his 18th birthday did he reflect on his failures. His passion for magic motivated him to pick his studies up again. In 2013, he sat for the DSE exam (¤å¾Ì¸Õ) as a private candidate and secured admission to post-secondary studies.

Keanu is now a first-year higher diploma student at Hong Kong Baptist University.

"Without magic, I may have no friends or goals," said Keanu. A part-time magician, he will save the scholarship for taking part in overseas international magic competitions. He wishes to acquire advanced magic skills in the US. (source: Ming Pao)
