The man behind the poison pen letters is a 'good person' who enjoys playing the guitar and listening to rock music, says his wife.

  Winessa Chow Suet-fong, 23, married Wong, 30, at the end of 1994.

  Their relationship blossomed when they were working for the Pui Kee Finance Company. He was a director and she a secretary.

  Speaking outside court, Ms Chow said it was not a case of love at first sight. They were friends who 'naturally fell in love with each other'.

  The picture of Wong painted by his adoring wife is very different to that suggested by the malicious words used in the letters he sent to prominent people.

  'He is nice to everyone. He is a humorous and reliable man,' she said.

  Wong always made a point of returning home after work for a quiet dinner with her, she said.

    'He likes my cooking,' Ms Chow said.

  He enjoyed playing the guitar and was fond of listening to rock music. His favourite bands were Pink Floyd, U2, Radiohead and Beyond.

  'He is actually a quiet person. When he was not happy, he would play the guitar to express his feelings,' said Ms Chow.

  The young wife gave birth to their first child, daughter Sik-in, last December while Wong was in custody.

  Ms Chow said it sometimes hurt when she looked at the baby.

  'I feel pity for her. She has never been hugged by her father,' Ms Chow said as tears welled up in her eyes.

  'No matter what happens to my husband, I will support him forever,' she added.

  Ms Chow visits Wong every day at the Lai Chi Kok Reception Centre, but they can only talk for about 15 minutes.

  She said she would take Sik-in to the prison once a week for Wong to look at from behind the glass.

  Ms Chow, who came to court every day to support her husband, vowed to appeal against his conviction.
