Lau-Chu KL wedding ceremony called off
THE wedding of singer-actor Andy Lau and his longtime Malaysian girlfriend Carol Chu is said to be off because she is not pregnant, Sin Chew Daily reported.
According to a Hong Kong magazine, the three-day wedding ceremony to be held in Kuala Lumpur at the end of next month was cancelled after Lau found out that Chu was not pregnant.
There was talk that Lau was willing to tie the knot after learning that Chu was pregnant.
Lau, who prefers to keep a low profile about the affair, is reported to be tired of the wedding reports in the newspapers.
> China Press reported that the revenue of charity organisations has been reduced due to the price drop of recycled items such as old newspapers and aluminium cans.
The daily said prices have dropped by half as demand for the items have decreased due to the economic downturn.
According to a survey by the daily, the organisations said their main source of income were public donations and the sale of the recycled items.

“Besides that, we will cut down on our expenses,” they said.
The organisations added that public donations of clothes and electrical items had also dropped.
