And of course, Yiliang, who has finished serving his 10-month jail sentence, did his rebuttal via his medium of choice — a live stream on Facebook.
Yiliang also accused the scriptwriter of misquoting his words in an interview that happened 30 years ago.The former actor said he was unable to refute the points that were published in the magazine column till now ‘cos it was published while he was. Yiliang started serving his sentence in February this year, and appears to have been let out early for good behaviour.
The former scriptwriter, who is currently based in Bangkok, stands by his column, and challenged Yiliang to take legal action if he feels that he was misrepresented in any way. Choon Heng then asked Yiliang to share how long he might be sentenced to jail for if he were to have laughed at the VIP. Yiliang replied that it would be a week. In the end, the article that was published was headlined: “Huang Yiliang once served a jail term of 7 days”.
“If there was an error in the interview piece at that time, the interviewee should bear some responsibility too 'cos the information that he offered up was unclear,” Choon Heng said.
