Last week, Steven Ma attended 2 consecutive events at Guangzhou and Dongguan, respectively. Even though the weather was rather erratic, raining sporadically; but as soon as he got to Guangzhou, the rain had stopped. The event went on without a hitch. Steven thanked heaven for its cooperation. The venue was jam-packed with people. Steven was deeply moved by the big turnout of fans who braved the winds and rain to attend the event as show of support. So, although completely drenched in sweat from the heat, he did not mind at all, but had great fun, becoming a ‘water person’. Afterwards, Steven quipped that he is a ‘water person’, that once the water valve is turned on, its flow will not cease. As for the event in Dongguan, it was Steven’s second invitation by the event organizer as special guest for a ribbon cutting ceremony. The attendees were 90% females, so as soon as Steven got on stage the whole place erupted with loud squeals. Also, many of the young ladies who were fortunate enough to get on stage to play games forcibly hugged Steven (強抱). Asked Steven if he was embarrassed? Steven says: “Even though didn’t specify it would be a hugging event (抱抱會) but never mind, more importantly is being happy.

When asked about the news of Stephen Chan being formally charged by (ICAC), Steven says he has been following the news, but it is not appropriate at this time for him to make any comment on it. However, he expresses concern for Chan: “Hope he’ll face it with strength; more importantly is that he takes care of himself.”
