KUALA LUMPUR: Hong Kong superstar Chow Yun Fat has been in the entertainment scene for over five decades and reportedly has a fortune of HK$5.6 billion (RM3.2 billion).
China Press reported recently that despite his wealth, some netizens have alleged that his sister might be living in poverty and neglect.
Hong Kong media recently published some photos of Chung Ling sleeping on a park bench and this fuelled rumours that her famous brother was not helping her.
However, sharp-eyed netizens quickly pointed out that although Chung Ling was dressed casually, the professional camera in her hands came with a hefty price tag.
The 77-year-old is an avid photography enthusiast who has held many exhibitions in Hong Kong.
Chung Ling has since stepped forward to clear the air, making it clear that the pictures were taken out of context and that she was just resting on the bench while working in the park.
She also rubbished rumours of mistreatment by Chow, adding that her brother had generously bought homes for his siblings, for which they remain deeply grateful.
