1. The KHF has given an unprecedented cross recognition to KJN Julian Lim re his Military CQC skills. This
Letter, one of its kind, is displayed in our Gallery, Certificates, Letter of Appointment section.
2. Mst Lim recently returned from a Tour of the USA conducted mid March to beginning April 2004. The objectives of the trip
were to hold HKD SungMooKwan seminars there and to inaugurate the start of KOMA USA under the leadership of KJN Frank Clay. He was also cordially inited to conduct a goodwill class at a IHF dojang in beautiful San Francisco. Photos are available in the Events, US 2004 section.
