Mr. and Mrs. Yi Peng immigrated to Wales in 1988. Mr. Peng was originally involved in real estate in Guangzhou, China, but they moved due to familial ties—Mrs. Peng’s parents were already in the UK. During their visit, the British government offered residency opportunities to Chinese nationals overseas. Motivated by their aspirations for democracy and freedom, the Pengs applied to stay permanently in the UK.

Mrs. Wai Fong Lee
Mrs. Wai Fong Lee MBE’s life story is one of resilience, family unity, and community service. Born in Hong Kong, her family’s immigration journey to the UK began in the 1970s when her father moved first in search of work. In 1970, he started working for relatives, paving the way for the rest of the family. Her mother followed in 1973, and finally, in 1975, Mrs. Lee joined them, reuniting with her parents after a period of separation.
