Director Soi Cheang Po Shui yesterday talked about his film SPL 2 (SAT POR LONG II), in which action actor Tony Jaa's character had a daughter with cancer. Cheang Po Shui revealed that actually it was a reflection of his real life. "After designing Tony Jaa's character, I discovered that my daughter was ill. The doctor in her uterus found a tumor that was the size of a fist and had to operate immediately. She was only five, to our family it was as if the sky has fallen! We didn't hide it from him. We told her directly and stayed by her side." He also said that luckily the tumor was benign. Cheang Po Shui said that his daughter already had a minimally invasive surgery. Her recovery has been ideal.
