The light of heaven was shining in the legislature yesterday when those who opposed a move to empower a Legco subcommittee to probe whether officials and bankers were wrongdoers in the Lehman Brothers minibonds affair turned green on camera in a live broadcast of the meeting.

Immediately after Regina Ip Lau Suk-yee – the only directly elected lawmaker opposing the motion – started her speech, a strong ray of sunshine broke through the top window of the usually gloomy Legco chamber, directly falling on Mrs Ip’s position and engulfing her in an eerie greenish aura. The same happened to David Li Kwok-po, who strongly defended his banking sector’s interest by speaking to oppose the vote.

“Gosh, the light of heaven has revealed their true nature,” one observer said while watching the live broadcast in the Legco corridors of power.

I wonder what is the motive behind the objection for conducting investigation on the suspected wrong party? Vested interest? conflict of interest?? The two that opposed the investigation just like the ancient time "Gold Medal no need to die", meaning those who held the medal will not be put to death whatever they do.
Or in the modern world given those FI "licence to cheat"; November 14, 2008 8:31 AM

WTF.
THey are many politician abusing the power, through fix and markup loan to get Banker's friends to finance and later written. Nothing millions vs billion turn over. Actually banks can make more money if not of bad loan.

But this Mini Bonds thing. I think bankers got kickback lah...in swiss bank?
