The three-year sentence was excessive when balancing aggravating factors (systematic defalcation of just under HK$178,000 over a year, personal enrichment) against mitigating factors (applicant's junior unsupervised role and guilty plea); the appropriate sentence is two years, therefore the original sentence is set aside and substituted with two years' imprisonment.
