FOREIGN Minister George Yeo has rallied behind film-maker Jack Neo.
On the blogkaki site on Sunday, he revealed that Neo called him with a confession about his extra-marital affair with model Wendy Chong, before the story broke in the news.
He wrote: 'Life is a long and often difficult journey, and what Jack and his family are going through is what he might have presented in his own movie, except that this time it is about himself.'
He said of Neo, a 2005 Cultural Medallion recipient: 'We are used to having Jack make us laugh, bring cheer to our daily lives, explain our trials and make them easier to bear. Let us rally around Jack, his wife and his children at this time.'
Mr Yeo said he received a call from the film-maker 'before the news broke on Saturday evening'.
'He wanted to tell me himself and not have me learn from newspaper reports. Giving me the background, he was full of remorse, adding that his wife and children were angry with him for what he did.'
