  Raymond Chan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Raymond Chan was born in Hong Kong on October 25, 1951.
Chan joined the Liberal Party of Canada in 1991, and was elected to Parliament in the 1993 election, defeating Defence Minister Tom Siddon in the riding of Richmond, British Columbia.
Chan, along with the ruling Liberals, did not initally support apologizing because it, on the advise of their legal experts, felt that the government would expose itself to unlimited liability.

 Chan v. Lee (Summary Disposition Order)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
Furthermore, even giving Raymond the benefit of the doubt, it was only at the second of the negotiation sessions that Raymond allegedly formed a belief that Lee implicitly began acting as his attorney for purposes of the Chans' purchase of the fee to the property.
Apart from conclusory statements in Raymond's declaration as to his subjective belief that Lee acted as attorney for him, Amy, and RC and AC Enterprise with respect to their purchase of the fee, the Chans fail to adduce any facts relating directly or inferentially to establishing an attorney-client relationship as to this matter.
The Chans assert for the first time on appeal that, even if Lee did not formally represent them in connection with their purchase of the property, he essentially rendered "gratuitous" legal advice and should, therefore, be held to the same standard of care as if he were under formal retainer.

 Happy Ghost 1-5
Raymond Wong plays a ghost from the Ching period that turns up in the modern age and invariably gets his friends into and out of trouble.
Raymond’s ghost is an amiable one — in the tradition of Topper or Casper — rather than a typical HK revenge seeking ghost - not a scare in him and his main enjoyment is playing practical jokes on targets of authority — pompous people, teachers etc.
Much of Raymond’s Cinema City output is held in some disdain by Western HK film fans for the type of juvenile humor he indulges in, the innocuous plots and his preference to cast nubile teenage girls.
