So Huang Na's father finally broke his silence yesterday, "begging" the public not to exert any more pressure on his family... He refused to reveal the amount "earned" from public donations... Nor carry out his promise of donating 50% of public donations. I am beginning to feel repulsed by his behaviour and trying to resist myself from stereotypoing mainland Chinese as greedy, mercenary...

In the first place, Huang Na's father shouldn't have made the promise of donating 50 % of all the public donations if he doesn't intend to carry out... It has been estimated that around 10000 ppl attended Huang's funeral ... It's not hard to calculate how much he has earned from the wake... Probably more than 150k, enough for him to become a millionaire when he returned back to China. Initially, they even wanted to bring back those Hello Kitties back to CHina, ( pobably to sell? I dun knoe) but after the public outcry, they decided to donate those Hello Kitties and leftover fruits, citing that it's not Chinese custom to donate Bai Zing. This lame excuse is virtually unheard of ...

Huang Na 's father and mother actions and behaviour have squandered the public's sympathy . and Yes, I am disgusted with his behaviour too! and puzzled by the public's irrationality.
