Social media can sometimes be a toxic environment with cyberbullies and trolls making use of the anonymity to sow hatred. But it is also amply capable of doing good when users rally around a good cause. At 1.16am on Saturday (Nov 29), Ling Yeung took to her social media pages on Facebook and Threads to share her grief and longing for her husband and daughter who were among the 146 people who perished in Hong Kong s deadliest fire in a century. Calling them the most precious persons in her life, a grieving Yeung said in a Threads post that she could not find a single photo with all three of them in it. I can t sleep at night. I long to hug the both of you again. My husband, I have no one to rely on anymore. Thank you for giving me a carefree life for twenty years. I will always love you.
