Peter Lui Kin-chuen has an astronomical ambition - he would like to be the first astronaut from Hong Kong.
He will take a step towards realising his dream when he leads 21 boys from the 205th Kowloon Scout troop to Moscow for special training in a space camp this summer.
Scout leader Mr Lui's dream began when he met the President of the Russian Youth Aerospace Society, Alexander Serebrov, in the United Sates two years ago.
'The astronaut told me about the Young Astronaut Programme which I found very inspiring,' he recalled.
Since then, Mr Lui has written to Mr Serebrov regularly asking to take part in the programme.
The result is that the first scouts from the territory will travel to Russia next month to attend a space camp which runs from July 17 to July 28 in Moscow.
