Singers to re-sing Leslie Cheung's and Anita Mui's golden classics in the fight against piracy

Tony Leung Chiu Wai, the ambassador of Hong Kong's Entertainment Expo for 3 years in a row, has just helped promote a short film by Eric Kot Man Fai. It will be shown in many of Hong Kong's cinemas and outdoor screens. The Expo will begin on the 20th March and end on the 14th of April with the motto: the whole city gets into it and gives its full support. At the moment, Tony Leung is in Japan with Carina Lau skiing but will be present at the press conference on the 1st March. At this time, it will be difficult for them to avoid questioning over the gossip of Carina Lau and the Tawainese Kwok Chi Ming.

Profits from album to go towards anti-pirating fund

Hong Kong's Entertainment Expo has 8 events, one of which, the "2nd Annual Hong Kong Music Fair" (HKMF), is being held on 21st to the 23rd of March on the 7th level of the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. IFPI has invited Kelly Chan, Eason Chan, Janice, Miriam Yeung, Twins, Hins Cheung, Fiona Sit, Hacken Lee, Joey Yung, Karen Mok and Leo Koo to re-sing several late singer's (Anita Mui, Leslie Cheung, Roman Tam and Beyond's Wong Ka Kui) golden classics. The songs will be recorded and thousands of CDs will be released and sold for HK$100. The profits made will go towards the anti-pirating fund.

There will be an exhibition and different singers will perform there each night. Everyone is welcome to come.
