Ê "Roger Wang introduced Hezekiah Asim, of the Sabah Theological Seminary, who specialises in ethnic instruments. Hezekiah played with Roger, Daniel Mojina and the Lau brothers. He had two instruments, a SAPE (a beautiful stringed instrument) and a FU LU SEH (like a bamboo recorder with a gourd shape attached at the neck). We the audience were really graced by Sabah that night, as there are not many places in the world where you could hear such a unique performance."

“I got a call from a very famous producer in Taiwan. He said he needed my song. He heard it on my demo, before I was signed up. They wanted Nicholas Tse to record this song to be the hit song for his new album. But I didn’t want to sell! I still wanted to do something with it, one day. Even if I have to wait until I am free from my contract. ‘How much you want?’ he asked. ‘I don’t know!’ I said. Honestly, I just want to keep it for myself. He said, ‘I will pay you the same rate as the top ranking Taiwanese composer’. Aiya. I didn’t ask what he was offering, because I really didn’t want to sell. Afterwards, my friend scolded me: sell the song! You can get a brand new sports car! You can make the deposit for a new house! But I didn't sell." From: Tian Long, the Hakka Singer. A Hero's Story.
