Given the small quantity of dangerous drug (12.33 grammes) and the Chan Chi Ming tariff for 'very small' quantities, the three year sentence for the drug count was excessive; taking into account the attempted bribe, a consecutive one year sentence was sufficient; the totality principle required reduction of the aggregate sentence and the $2,000 fine was improperly imposed and should be set aside. The application for leave out of time was allowed and treated as the hearing of the appeal.
