Donkey

Donkey’s speed is slow and horse’s speed is much faster in running. Donkey’s strength is much small when compared with cow strength. But, donkey has the ability that horse and cow cannot follow. It is that donkey can carry heavy load to go up to mountain which has no path, but only trees and grasses.
Horse can run fast in the flat road and cow can only plough on the field. Both of them cannot go up steep mountains even with no load on their back.
In last century, Hong Kong Government planned to build an Observatory Station on the top of the mountain. As the mountain is too steep, even the helicopter cannot do this job.
After careful study, Hong Kong Government finally borrowed four donkeys from Canadian Army which has a team of trained donkeys to carry load to top mountain.
Four donkey arrived Hong Kong to do the job. They carry two hundred lbs. of load of construction materials to the top of the mountain. They went up and down twice a day.
By the period of two years an observatory was established. It is entirely due to the power of these four donkeys which completed such task.
