seeking scan of AFA Article on Phillip Lam - Lee Gar

Wai Jia: The Kung Fu Forum Southern Chinese Kung Fu

Just wondering if anyone has the article of Australasion Fighting Arts magazine on
“Phillip Lam - Ghost Fist of Siew Lum Lee Gar” and would share.
I think it was around a 1979/early 80s issue.

Thanks:)

I think I could get it for you!

I’ll let you know as soon as I can (a couple of days).

Is Phillip Lam still teaching in NZ?

Thank you, that would be very good of you.
Don’t go to any trouble if not simple/easy.
No Problems if not.

You can post them here for everyone
or send to 5thBrother@mail.com

Yes, Phillip Lam is still teaching strong, though concentrating on his Muay Thai teaching.

Thanks

5thBrother,

No problems mate. Happy to help where I can.

I know we’ve had some disagreements in the past but that’s all over in my book. You see, I’m not the “Devil” or “Demon” I’ve been painted to be! :slight_smile:

Any how, it will take me a few day’s as I have to sort through heaps of copies but if I have it and can find it I will rush a copy to you asap!

I seem to recall the article, something to do with the speed of his punches and the use of the Phoenix Eye fist formation?

Hey, don’t you wish AFA would somehow make a comeback!!!

Here’s a small scan, as a slideshow on a Lee Gar branch website.

If Minghequan can’t find his copy, maybe they can provide a larger scan if you contact them.

Edit:
Oh, actually there’s a way to see the article in a bigger size.

Hey! Well Done! I’m sure 5th Brother will be appreciative. Truth told I’ll enjoy re-reading the article myself!

Thanks Runlikehell,

Unfortunately, the “larger” size is still too small to read.

Many Thanks for your help though.

Actually on second look,
I might be able to make out most of the writing if look close enough hehe :slight_smile:
Thanks

5th Brother,

Just a suggestion, download the images and then Blow them up in your photo program?
