Chief Executive Leung Chun Ying's family is in trouble, as his daughter Leung Chai Yan was suspected to be a victim of domestic violence. Chai Yan yesterday morning posted on facebook that she wanted to leave home, revealing that she and her mother Regina Leung Tong Ching Yee got into a dispute. Her mother slapped and kicked her, which caused her to fall and injuring her back on a table corner. Later, she displayed photos of bruises on her leg on facebook, and said that the police turned her away. She was even stopped from getting into an ambulance to go to the hospital. Chief Executive later held a press conference to deny that his wife hit their daughter, but confirmed that Chai Yan had health problems.

The film NAM GIK TAM SEH DUNG (MALE EXTREME SPOT LIGHT)'s actor Don Li Yat Long said that has already resigned due to scheduling conflict and that director Lau Chun Fai has already recast lead actress Leung Chai Yan. Director Lau Chun Fai said that both leads will change and the script had to be edited. The production will not start until April. He said that he was not at liberty to discuss Chai Yan's family problem, but revealed that when they talked earlier sh said that she did not chat with her mother. Lau Chun Fai said, "I told her, in the end she is her mother, they have to communicate! She is still a little girl and needs help from adults. When it comes to family, it's very hard for outsiders to comment.
