MY SAVINGRAM NO 34 OF 30 JANUARY: MR LUI SUNG.
THE ALLEGATION IN PARA 9 THAT HE HAD SOLD HIS SON FOR DOLLARS
12,000 MAKES ALARMING READING. WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO ESTABLISH
THE FACTS WITHOUT COMPLETE SUCCESS BECAUSE THE SON HAS DEFINITELY
CEASED TO LIVE WITH HIS FAMILY AND LUI HAS EVADED ALL QUESTIONS
THAT WOULD LEAD TO HIM BEING TRACED. HOWEVER:
(A) LUI'S WIFE CLEARLY DOES NOT TAKE THE STORY OF SALE SERIOUSLY
(B) LUI'S BEHAVIOUR AT THE TIME DID NOT REFLECT THIS SUDDEN ACCRETION OF COMPARATIVE WEALTH, AND
(C) WE CANNOT IMAGINE WHY ANYBODY WOULD BE SO FOOLISH AS TO PAY SUCH A SUM.
2. CONSEQUENTLY, WHILE LUI MAY HAVE HAD HIS SON ADOPTED WE THINK
THE ALLEGED SALE HIGHLY IMPROBABLE.
