When Marcus Wong was a child, he was, by his own account, awkward, shy and didn t know how to talk to people .
He also lived a comfortable life in Perth, and never thought much about how others lived around the world. When I was 10, I remember my primary school teacher telling the class a story of what it was like for someone living in poverty, he told ABC Radio Perth. It was never something I had thought about.
