Of course it wouldn’t be appropriate to end this months column without mentioning the controversy around the unauthorized nude photos taken of Twins member Gillian Chung. It’s been all over the Asian press, with both the public, and her fellow celebrities, coming together in protest. Gillian was obviously quite shaken over the incident, and it looks like pictures such as these may become harder to print in the coming years. The intense public scrutiny over the affair, has forced the Hong Kong government to review the privacy laws on their books, and to reevaluate whether these kinds of photographs should be made illegal going into the future.
