Pope Francis appoints Fr. Stephen Chow as new bishop of Hong Kong

Vatican City, May 17, 2021 / 06:00 am (CNA). Pope Francis has appointed Fr. Stephen Chow, S.J. as the next bishop of Hong Kong. Chow, 61, has served as the provincial of the Jesuits’ Chinese Province since 2018. In that role, he led the Jesuit order in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and mainland China as the Vatican-China deal was first signed and during the crackdown on Hong Kong’s democracy protest movement. The Vatican announced Chow’s appointment on May 17, more than two years after the death of Bishop Michael Yeung Ming-cheung left Hong Kong without a permanent bishop. Fr. Stephen Chow Sau-yan, 周守仁, was born in Hong Kong on Aug. 7, 1959. He studied in the United States, earning a bachelor’s and master’s degree in psychology from the University of Minnesota, before entering the Society of Jesus in Dublin, Ireland at the age of 25.

Gossip mill: Chen Yixin's IG post gets hilarious responses from dad Edmund Chen and hunkle Chuando Tan — and other entertainment news this week

May 01, 2021 Instagram/chxnyixin [embed]https://www.instagram.com/p/CONWfGRnOZR/[/embed] Local actress Chen Yixin — who turned 21 just recently — posted a short clip from her new movie Precious Is The Night on her Instagram on Thursday (April 29), and some of the comments have turned out to be more interesting than her post itself. The video clip showed local hunkle Chuando Tan, 55, advancing onto Yixin seductively, backing her into a wall.

When Chuando left a heart emoticon in the comment section, her father, 60-year-old local celebrity/hunkle Edmund Chen, replied hilariously: "Chuando boy, I'm watching."
