How We Started 第一步
18.12.2005, the last ‘Down Down WTO Day’ in Hong Kong, was an important day …
In this article written for HK Oxfam Magazine 2006 No. 2, Fanny-Min Becker tells you how she started this Fair-and-Healthy ‘business’ almost by accident and how she is sticking to it with intent.
You can read more about Fair-and-Healthy in a feature story by Cheung Mei for Hong Kong Economic Times, 3rd May 2007.
Fair-and-Healthy 的開始
2005年底世貿會議期間, Fanny-Min Becker (亞敏) 偶然在「公平貿易展」發現菲律賓的健康食品,又認識了菲律賓公平貿易組織核心人物,並相約共同參與加反世貿大遊行。遊行前等候隊伍開動的數小時,聽完一個又一個亞洲農民血淚故事Fanny-Min 毅然決定推動公平貿易健康食品,于 2006 年創辦 Fair-and-Healthy ,由其一人公司 FMIR (FM International Resources) 資助營運,與夥伴 Stephen Ma (亞文) 推介健康食品,並向消費者講解公平貿易知識。

Fanny-Min Becker, you are one special lady. Keep up the good work. The world is a poorer place the minute you slow down.
Kindest regards,
Steve
Thanks for your timely support, dear Steve.
The Fair Trade path is stony
My old shoes have worn out
Am treading on
Bare-soled

親愛的敏:
你好,在這與你分享細B的近況:打從09年11月8日我們初相識在”金喜”,我遵照你的提議,把薰衣草精華油加在椰子油裡,外用,每天按摩。內服,每餐把椰子油加在糧食裡,再用無患子沖涼。
絰過4個月的努力,牠的皮膚改善了許多,部份毛襄也長出了柔軟的毛毛!謝謝你!
