From adversity we grow in faith and strength. This is the message that Hong Kong entertainer Samuel Hui wants to impart to all in the wake of the tsunami disaster that has shocked the world. “That is why I came back to the entertainment industry. I want to use my music to share my philosophies on life and bring joy to the people,” he said. Hui emerged from retirement last year, after 12 years, following the despair caused by the SARS virus and deaths of several notable celebrities (Roman Tam, Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui).
“It is heartening to see people coming together to help wherever there’s a tragedy. I hope everyone will keep smiling and stay strong,” said the 56-year-old in a pre-recorded video message. The recording was played during a press conference last week held to announce the participation of Da Ma Cai as presenter for the Sam Hui Live in Malaysia 2005 concert. Da Ma Cai will be sending two lucky winners and their friends (one each) to Hong Kong to watch Hui’s Chinese New Year concert.
