sorry min

A Taiwanese couple who sent their son to Melbourne to receive an Australian education have made the heartbreaking decision to turn off his life support system after he was injured in a hit-and-run.

Calvin Hsiung and his wife Jennifer, a theology teacher, say their 17-year-old son Samuel had dreamed of coming to Melbourne to further his education with the aim of becoming a nurse.

Samuel was standing at a bus stop in Dandenong North on Saturday morning when he was hit by a car that mounted the footpath and travelled 250 metres before the driver, described as an Asian woman in her 20s or 30s, stopped to inspect the damage, then drove off.

His father on Monday said doctors had told him Samuel was brain dead.

Samuel's sister, Uriah, 19, is due to arrive in Melbourne on Tuesday at which time the family will turn off the life support.

"Our family is here, and tomorrow his sister will arrive, and we will make a very good decision on behalf of Samuel's life," Mr Hsiung said.

Ms Hsiung said that when she was told of the seriousness of Samuel's injuries by the pastor of his church she knew he would not make it.

"I knew the Lord was taking him home," she told reporters at The Alfred hospital.

Mr Hsiung called on the driver of the car, a black Toyota Corolla, to give herself up to police.

"It's a murder like this," he said.

"I have confidence in the police that we can hunt for the driver in order to maintain a good society."

Ms Hsiung said his son had been in Melbourne for six months and liked the people, the culture, the lifestyle and the food.

"He set a very good example here - in the language school and in the college," Mr Hsiung said.

"He's a very cute boy, very real, very kind-hearted."

Ms Hsiung added that sometimes her son was "very naughty" but a "very good carer who wanted to be a nurse".

She did not regret sending him to Australia, saying he had fulfilled his dream of living in Melbourne and had made many friends.

"We don't think of it as a waste of a life; we think of it as a blessing," she said.

Mr Hsiung said the family would donate Samuel's organs in line with the hospital's policy.

"Then we will take him back to Taiwan," he said.

"Our son fought a good battle but now he is no longer my boy, he is everyone's boy."
