Truth and lies regarding the so-called "Lineage Holder of LHBF"

[fukien guy]

Recently there has been an ongoing disscussion on the emptyflower
forum regarding Choi Wai Lun and the claims that he has made about
himself, others, and the liuhebafa style in general.

Here is a summary of the postings to date:

Choi Wai Lun claims to be the lineage holder and custodian of the
lhbf system appointed by Chan Yik Yan. He displays a document to
prove this fact that has been mistranslated into English...
-the fact is his own classmates have come forth as witnesses to say
that he paid money to have that written and presented to him!
-the fact is the certificate in mention is actually a simple scroll
of recognition that others posses as well with their names!

Choi Wai Lun claims to have been accepted as a disciple of Chan in
1963 and begun to teach liuhebafa in 1969...
-the fact is Chan was in Singapore until 1965 and didnt open up his
door to new disciples until 1969!
-the fact is Choi did teach in 1969 but it was only Hsing Yi and not
liuhebafa as he had claimed. His own student from the time has
confirmed this fact!
-the fact is that Choi's own classmates who were there have stated
that his actual time with Chan Yik Yan was less than 2 years!

Choi Wai Lun claims to have been educated in Tai Chi, Ba Gua, and
Hsing Yi by Chan Yik Yan...
-the fact is his bagua has proven to be from a different source as
Chan taught the "jiang style" whereas Choi teaches the "swimming
dragon style"!
-the fact is it was stated that Chan had never taught Tai Chi to
anyone!

For the past decade a dedicated disciple of Choi Wai Lun has been
promoting him as the "lineage holder" and "sole heir" to Chan Yik
Yan and the Liuhebafa System.
HE HAS BEEN SLANDERING OTHERS WHOM HE HAS NEVER MET IN PERSON, NOR
TALKED TO, NOR SEEN PERFORM!
And has insulted virtually every disciple of Chan Yik Yan and
currently active teacher of liuhebafa today!

It was also brought up that Choi Wai Lun had never stated anything about himself or his past, and that it was simply his students who were making these claims. If this is so then he was in complete ignorance of his own website, acticles which his students and others published, his published book on 12 Animals, and videos, all stating this information in print! Seems like alot gets by the "Grandmaster of LHBF"!

It is of course not for me to say anything as I too have never met
any other practitioner of lhbf excluding my own teacher. But I find
there to be a shadow cast by Choi Wai Lun that discluded any other
student of Chan Yik Yan as being authentic. Finally after years of
reign as the self proclaimed "lineage holder of liuhebafa", the
classmates of Choi Wai Lun who were there at the time have spoken
their voice through their students on the forum. Let the truth be
known!
