Prior to joining the Institute, he was pursuing studies in Catholic philosophy and theology at the Catholic Regional Seminary and Fu Jen Catholic University in Taipei. Through pastoral work and community service in Taipei, he has gained an insight into the workings of the local Catholic church, which has given him the basis for his current research.
