Security for costs was ordered because the appellant admitted impecuniosity but failed to prove inability to raise funds elsewhere; the appeal was only arguable not strong enough to displace the need for security; the plaintiff’s claimed estimate was excessive given likely one‑day hearing and duplication so the court fixed security at HK$900,000; failure to pay within 28 days results in dismissal without further order and the appeal is stayed until payment.
