Chilian Chung starts working on February 12th after celebrity sex photo scandal incident
The Television and Entertainment Licensing Authority has received 34 complaints about media reports on the incident.
Clement So, director of the School of Journalism and Communication, Chinese University of Hong Kong, said the media should refine their reporting techniques. He added that the government should review regulations over online media which could convey information quickly and widely.
A citizen Mr Ho expressed concern over the incident, but said he would not filter the websites containing the obscene photos for his child.
"Children need to learn how to distinguish between right and wrong," he said.
Another parent Mrs Wan would filter the websites to prevent her kids from being exposed to the compromising photos.
"They are too young to understand this incident," she said. Ho's 10-year-old child never saw the photos.
Ho added while no single person should be held responsible for the incident, artists should pay more attention to their behavior.
Despite the arrest of the man who allegedly uploaded the photos last Monday, more photos were uploaded onto the internet. Seven females were identified, including Chen's girlfriend Vincy Yeung.
Mani Fok, manager of Chung, said the company Emperor Entertainment Group (EEG) and Chung would not respond to the incident in the future.
EEG initially claimed in a statement that the images featuring Chung were doctored.
The ninth arrest in relation to the posting of the photos has recently been made. The suspect, a 24-year-old man, was apprehended in Kowloon at 8:00am on Sunday. He was charged last night with distributing erotic photographs on the web and will appear in Kwun Tong Magistracy today.
