Mary Jean Reimer (Yung Jing Jing) and International Guoshu Association founder Chiu Sik Hing yesterday attended the Hong Kong Martial Arts Living Archive opening ceremony. Yung Jing Jing said that her greatest regret was that Master Lau Kar Leung was unable to record all his kung fu on video. "People used to teach orally and by example, Master didn't like to turn kung fu into video lessons. I had to try several times before he agreed. Unfortunately 2 or 3 years before his passing he did not feel well and could not make any." She said that she and Chiu Sik Hing had the same belief so when she learned that he was raising fund to found this archive, she donated HK$ 130,000.

Speaking of Elaine Ng Yi Lei, Yung Jing Jing at first did not want to talk too much. Then she finally said that Ng Yi Lei was not a person who did not know how to rebut, but she did not like to explain so she was at a disadvantage and made matter worse. She said, "Ng Yi Lei doesn't abuse alcohol. I went with her to the school, she did not smell like alcohol, all of the school chancellors can be witnesses."

When would Ng Yi Lei's daughter return home? Yung Jing Jing said that she was not a spokesperson for Ng Yi Lei. She only helped as a friend. IF she needed legal consultation she would be willing to help. Yung Jing Jing asked everyone not to apply more pressure on Ng Yi Lei. "She already can't take anymore. I hope everyone would have merciful. Mother daughter arguments are very normal. I too would argue with my daughters. When my older daughter went to be a reporter in the U.S. I argued with her as well."
