I refer to your article, “Racy video of ‘Queen of Canto-pop’ Sammi Cheng’s husband Andy Hui in back of vehicle with another woman sparks privacy concerns over on-board cameras” (April 16).
Those involved in the episode are all household names in Hong Kong, so it was not surprising that this piece of news caught public attention instantly and became the hottest gossip in town.
Admittedly, the public was shocked by the incident. However, were we too quick to judge those involved? Everyone errs. Hui’s expression of remorse at the press conference was touching. He said he was “lost” and felt “very disgusting, revolting and strange”.

Well, haven’t we all felt degraded like him, to varying degrees and in different ways? It’s just that we may not have had the moral fibre to acknowledge it openly.
I used to be a judgemental person, even after I became a Christian. The Bible taught me that “in the same way you judge others, you will be judged”. If I had persisted in belittling others to show that I was a better person, I would have been devoid of the blessing of love myself. It could cost me my place in heaven in the end. I was alarmed.
