Lily Ho and Ivy Ling saddened by Li Ching's passing
2 Mar – Veteran actress Lily Ho (also known as Lily Chao) couldn't help but feel saddened over the death of fellow actress Li Ching.
As reported on Mingpao, the actress who worked with Li in the 1966 movie, "The Knight of Knights", shared that she couldn't help but tear up after learning about Li's death from the media.
However, what saddened her the most was the nature of the death - that Li's decaying body was found by the firefighters who broke into her home following reports of a stench coming from her residential unit.
"For someone to leave the world this way, anybody would be sad to hear it. Nobody knew that you're gone. How disheartening," she said.
Meanwhile, senior media executive Wang Man Ling revealed that veteran actress Ivy Po sighed sadly upon hearing news of Li's death.
Ivy, Lily, and Li were known as Shaw's Super Trio during their heyday.
On the other hand, veteran martial arts actor Tony Liu said that he never had any opportunity to collaborate with Li Ching throughout his career, but that he met her at the gambling tables.
"She loves playing cards. Each win or loss were big, around six digits," he said.
In related news, many stars including Helen Ma and Susan Shaw are determined to help out with Li's funeral.
