Downpour no deterrent to Democrats
Yeung Sum barely had time to towel himself off after Tuesday's publicity-seeking plunge into the harbour before receiving another drenching - this time by the downpour brought by Severe Tropical Storm Kammuri.
The veteran Democrat and other members of the party's Hong Kong Island team were out all Tuesday night adding the official candidate number - 3 - to their election posters.
The numbers were only handed out on Tuesday night, but by yesterday morning the team had added their number to all their posters.
Dr Yeung said that for a ticket fighting to push a second candidate into the Legislative Council, every second counted.
'We're putting our lives on the line here,' he said.
Civic Party content to play a waiting game
