The late Hong Kong actor Benz Hui was cremated on Tuesday (Nov 18), with many celebrities paying their final respects, including actress Samantha Ko, singer George Lam and actor Michael Miu.

Hui died on Oct 28 at the age of 76 from cancer-related organ failure.

Miu previously choked up while speaking with reporters about Hui. In an interview with Hong Kong media, Miu said that he was "heartbroken" by Hui's death. According to Miu, who had known Hui for over 40 years, he only knew about the severity of Hui's condition when he visited Hui in the hospital – adding that Hui "never mentioned" his illness.
