Because the petitioner failed to make full disclosure and had recently sold a flat for $120,000 with no adequate explanation for the application of the proceeds, the court drew an adverse inference as to his means and concluded he had capacity to pay reasonable maintenance; the petitioner was ordered to pay the respondent HKD 400 per month, commencing 31 July 1978, with costs to the respondent to be taxed under the Legal Aid Regulations.
