Edison Chen Apologized – Is it Enough?
(I just switched to an US server, you may not be able to jialat.com if your ISP’s DNS not updated yet)
I do feel that the damage is too huge. And in the video, he did not say sorry or what so ever, just “urge people not to spread the photos”. Is this a sincere act?
The above video clip is not valid anymore.

He did apologized, except I find it weird he used the term ‘strange strange ordeal’?
or did I misheard?
*shrug* ah who cares, this thing will blow over soon anyways.

He said: “I’ve decided to break my silence today and make this statement to the media and to all people involved in this strange ordeal. Recent documents being posted online have been intentionally hurtful and malicious not only to the victims but to our whole community.
“I have already handed matters over to the police and have been assisting them with this case from the first day onwards. Due to ongoing investigations, I am unable to comment any further upon this case.
“The lives of many innocent people have been affected by this malicious and criminal conduct, and in this regard I am filled with pain, hurt and frustration.
“I hereby use this opportunity to apologize to anyone who has been affected by this strange, strange ordeal.
“I now call upon everyone to help and assist the victims of this case. If you have ever downloaded any of these images, please do not forward them to anyone. Please do not send them to anyone. If you are still in possession of these images, I urge you to please destroy them immediately. Let’s help the wounded heal their wounds. I urge you to help the victims and not make anything worse.”
well, in short – why the f*** should he apologize?
he took those pictures for private consumption – this in itself is not a crime unless the girls were under duress or didnt know.
he did not distribute the pictures or have any intention to do so.
his only mistake was being careless and in reality, he is being punished for it since pix of him r now all over the net.
I think he was apologizing to more than just the girls involved, but to their families, and that, is understandable.
