Our Volunteers 我哋嘅義工: Tindy

Meet Tindy our qualified Accountant and Tax advisor

Hello, my name is Tindy and I am originally from Hong Kong. I have been on and off living in Ireland more than 15 years now. I work as a qualified Accountant and Tax advisor in Dublin. Prior to that, I obtained a registered nursing license which specializes in NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care) in Hong Kong. I worked in a private hospital for a bit longer than a year before I moved back to Dublin permanently.
你好，我叫 Tindy ，我係香港人。我喺愛爾蘭斷斷續續噉住咗超過15年。我喺都柏林係一個合格嘅會計師同稅務顧問。 之前，我攞咗個註冊護理牌照，係香港專門做 NICU （新生兒深切治療）。 我喺一間私家醫院做咗一年多少少，之後我就永久搬返都柏林。

There was a social media post that drawn my attention long time ago. A lady fought very hard that Traditional Chinese language to be accepted and recognised by leaving Cert examination in Ireland. I remember I signed the petition as well. It struck me. So when Cantonese Ireland is born, I have followed them since. I formally joined them about 2 years ago, a committee member invites me to join them as they need a hand for handling their financial and compliance obligation. It was great to be able to use my strength to help them.

好耐以前，有個社交媒體帖子引起咗我嘅注意。一位女士好努力噉爭取繁體漢子喺愛爾蘭嘅公開考試中被接受同認可。我記得當時我都簽咗份請願書。 嗰件事解動咗我，所以當粵語愛爾蘭出世嘅時候，我就追蹤佢哋嘅社交媒體。大約兩年前左右，有個委員會成員邀請我加入佢哋，因為佢哋需要人幫手處理佢哋嘅財務及其他各項事務。可以用我嘅知識去幫佢哋真係好正。

My main responsibility is to handle their financial and compliance obligation. I have given a talk about the taxation in Ireland for some new immigrant before and I occasionally will join other committees to participate some events as well.

我嘅主要責任係處理佢哋嘅財務及稅務事宜。我之前主講愛爾蘭稅務講座，幫助新移民對愛爾蘭交稅事宜。偶爾我都會同其他委員會一齊搞活動。

I hope the Cantonese immigrants will not feel lonely when they move to a foreign country by knowing that they can find brunch of people who can speak the same language with them, probably will have a same goal to preserve our own cultural heritage as well.

我希望粵移民喺佢哋搬去外國嗰陣唔會覺得寂寞，因為佢哋知道自己可以搵到一堆人可以同佢哋講同一種語言，可能仲會有同樣嘅目標去保存我哋自己嘅文化遺產。
