The movie explores the traditional Taoist practice of \u201cBreaking the Hell&#8217;s Gate\u201d through a couple of connected stories and addresses the topic of deathcare in a thematic and touching manner, thereby sparking awareness and discussion about end-of-life planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article aims to discuss how one can ensure one\u2019s wishes regarding funeral arrangements be respected, i.e. the specific ceremonies to be performed, the location and type of the service, and burial or cremation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>PRACTICAL STEPS<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>CONSULTING FUNERAL DIRECTOR OR RELIGIOUS LEADER <\/strong><br>If you have a particular preference regarding your funeral arrangement, you should first consult a funeral director or religious leader to ensure the eligibility and availability of your wishes. This can be particularly important if you desire a ceremony that reflects your faith, as different faiths and religious believes may have different requirements or formalities regarding holding a funeral arrangement in accordance with that religious practice and tradition.<br><br>Further, regarding burial or cremation, it must be noted that with a growing and ageing population in Hong Kong, there is a greater demand for such facilities in Hong Kong<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\">[1]<\/a>. It is advisable to consider the costs and availability of these facilities and plan ahead during your lifetime in securing them.<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>COMMUNICATING YOUR WISH WITH YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS<\/strong><br>Once you have made up your mind regarding your funeral arrangement, you should also communicate your wishes with your family members. This is to ensure that your family members understand your preferences. It also provides an opportunity for them to ask questions or to clarify with you in case of any ambiguity.<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>CONSULTING A LAWYER AND DRAFTING FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS CLAUSE<\/strong><br>After you have been confirmed your preference regarding funeral arrangement and practice can be catered for, you should then consult a solicitor to draft a specific funeral arrangement clause in order to express your funeral wishes.&nbsp; Clarity is key so that your executor of your Will can honour your wishes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>LIMITATION REGARDING ENFORCEABILITY OF WILL DISPOSITION<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though you have already followed the above practical steps, you should note that there is a limitation under the law in Hong Kong, namely that <strong><u>there is no property in a dead body, and that a will disposition regarding disposal of a dead body cannot be legally enforced.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <em>Re Estate of Lu Han Lung<\/em> [2010] 3 HKLRD 651, the principles surrounding property in dead body, enforceability of will disposition and funeral arrangement are laid down by the Court as follows:-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>There is no property in a corpse;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A man cannot by will dispose of his dead body, and any direction by will or otherwise by the deceased on burial cannot be enforced;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As a starting position, the executor named in a will or the known personal representative (if the deceased passed away without leaving a will) is entitled to the possession of the body and is responsible for its burial;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The right of the surviving spouse or de facto spouse will also generally be preferred to the right of the children;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>However, such starting position can be displaced where there are special circumstances;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A person with the privilege of choosing how to bury a body is expected to consult with other stakeholders, but is not legally bound to do so; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The person with the privilege of organizing the funeral and burial cannot exclude friends and relatives of the deceased from expressing their affection for the deceased in a reasonable and appropriate manner.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is therefore important for the testator to appreciate and understand that even though he\/she can include funeral arrangement clause, such clause is not legally enforceable. However, having funeral wishes documented can serve as guidance and help prevent family disputes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>HOW CAN OLN ASSIST?<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At OLN, we provide initial consultation service regarding wills drafting.
