A CAREER move to Hong Kong will mean more than just football for Harvey Lim, the new goalkeeper of First Division club Sing Tao.
For the 26-year-old England-born Lim will be trying to trace his family roots in Southeast Asia - a journey which will take him to China and Cambodia.
Lim's father, Lim Choun, was brought up in Cambodia after the family moved from Fujian province on the Chinese mainland.
In the early 1960s, when the family had acquired considerable wealth through the marble industry, Lim Choun left Phnom Penh to take up a scholarship at Norwich University.
He got out just in time, as did his parents, but other members of the family were not quite so fortunate, becoming victims in the ''Killing Fields'' as the country was devastated by Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge.
As the relatives who escaped made new lives for themselves in Paris and Strasbourg, Lim Choun settled down in East Anglia, where he married an English girl and became the father of Harvey Choun Lim.
