Former Social Welfare LegCo member Shiu Ka-chun died in the early morning of Jan. 10 at the age of 55 due to a recurrence of stomach cancer.
His wife posted an obituary on Shiu’s social platform, saying that her husband “returned peacefully to his heavenly home” at 0:41 a.m. on Jan. 10, with relatives and friends by his side. The post said Shiu suffered complications after gastric cancer surgery, and though he experienced hardships in his bed, he always persevered. “Feeling the guidance and care of Heavenly Father the Lord, he was able to maintain his inner peace even in such difficult times.” The arrangements for his memorial service will be notified later.
