London, June 26 (ANI): Kung Fu expert Jackie Chan has urged his fans to use their martial arts skills for good causes.

On his visit to East Timor as a goodwill ambassador for the UN children's fund, Unicef, the 54-year-old actor insisted that if you use martial arts to help somebody, you're the hero.

"If you use martial arts to help somebody, you're the hero. If you use martial arts just on the street to fight somebody, even if you win you're not the hero - you're nobody," BBC quoted him as saying.

The 'Rush Hour' star also showed off his kung fu skills as the assembled crowd cheered for him.

Chan is on a three-day visit to East Timor to promote peace in the young and impoverished nation. (ANI)
