February 22 Hong Kong actor Edison Chen says he took racy photos, apologizes
Today I have come back to Hong Kong to stand before you and account for myself. I have never escaped from my responsibility. During the past few weeks, I have been with my mother and my family and my loved ones to show support and care and at the same time to have them support and care for me.
I admit that most of the photos being circulated on the Internet were taken by me. But these photos are very private and have not been shown to people and are never intended to be shown to anyone. These photos were stolen from me illegally and distributed without my consent.
There is no doubt whoever obtained these photos have them uploaded on the Internet with malicious and deliberate fected by this. In this regard, I am deeply saddened. I would like now to apologize to all the people for all the suffering that has been caused and the problems that have arisen from this. I would like to apologize to all the ladies and to all their families for any harm or hurt that they have been feeling. I am sorry. I would like to also apologize to my mother and my father for the pain and suffering I have caused them during the past few weeks. Most importantly, I would like to say sorry to all the people of Hong Kong. I give my apology sincerely to you all, unreservedly and with my heart.
I know young people in Hong Kong look up to many figures in our society. And in this regard, I have failed. I failed as a role model. However, I wish this matter will teach everyone a lesson. To all the young people in our community, let this be a lesson for you all. This is not an example to be set for you.
During my time away, I have made an important decision. I will whole-heartedly fulfill all commitments that I have to date. But after that, I decided to step away from the Hong Kong entertainment industry. I have decided to do this to give myself an opportunity to heal myself and to search my soul. I will dedicate my time to charity and community work within the next few months. I will be away from Hong Kong entertainment industry indefinitely. There is no time frame.
I have been assisting the police since the first day the photos were published and I will continue to assist them. After this press con., I have obligation to help them with their investigation and hope that this case can end soon as everyone I think has the same wish.
I would like to use this opportunity to thank the police for their hard work on this case. Thank you. I believe everyone's priority now (and) my priority now is to stop the suffering and pain, for not letting this...we do not want to let this situation become more out of control. We need to protect all the innocents and all the young from matters like this. In this regard, I have instructed my lawyers to do everything possible within the law to protect all the innocents, victims of this case. I believe that a press statement is being issued as we speak on what my lawyers have advised me to do.
Lastly, I would like to thank everyone for coming here today and listening to what I have to say. I would like to also apologize once again to all the ladies and their families, my family and to everyone in Hong Kong and everyone in our society. I am deeply saddened by this. And I apologize to everyone (who) has to go through this. I would like to also thank you for giving me this opportunity to say what I have wanted to say all along in my heart.
I hope, after today, I can have your forgiveness. With regard to this case, with everything, everything that has happened, I am deeply sorry. I hope you all accept my apology and give me a chance.
Thank you.

January 31 Change the world-One Speech at a TimeEveryone has felt nervous before giving a speech or making a presentation.Some of us actually dread the experience.Still others aren't sure wht to say when they run into the CEO,and they've been doing.In these situations our performance could make or break our career.So if you are hoping to make the best impression and score that next promotion,look no further.Nick Morgan,in his book Working the Room covers all of these situations and more.
The first thing to say about this book is that it is not a list of quick tips and hints.There are many of those books around.Morgan's main assertion is that if you want to be a successful speaker,you need to want to change the world with your speaking.This means that you are not just telling people your ideas;you need to get them involved and make them want to listen to you and believe you.For example,make sure your audience can interact with your ideas by asking the listeners to discuss your topics among themselvess.
Morgan bases his ideas on his over twently years of experience in speech coaching and consulting,but also draws upon the ancient Greek belief of "kinesthetic connection.This theory states that you need to interact with your audience using not just your words,but your body as well.In other words,you should be actively listening to your audience.He also walks you through how to prepare,rehearse,and deliver a speech that stands out from the crowd.Some readers have said that you will never look at Microsoft Power Point in the same way after reading this book!
Finally,the best part of the book is the many real life examples and the historical anecdotes Morgan provides.Most everyone likes to read about others' mistakes and triumphs and Morgan is a great storyteller.Not to mention through these tales he gives us great insight into how we all can improve our speeches and conversations.If you really want a chance to make sure your words count and people are motivated by your speeches,here'syour opportunity.Nick Morgan,in his own words,can help you "change the world"one speech at a time. January 28 I'm Noboby!I'm Nonbody! Who are you?
Are you - Nobody - Too?
Then there's a pair of us!
Don't tell they'd advertise - you know!
How dreary - to be - Somebody!
How public - like a Frog -
To tell one's name - the livelong June-
To an admiring Bog! |
