Anita Yuen
The HKFA for Best New Performer was sometimes awarded for a very young actor or actress such as Xu Jiao, who was only nine years old at the time of the award, or Goum Ian Iskandar, a nine-year-old Malaysian actor who won in both supporting actor and best new artist categories for his performance in "After This Our Exile". Many recipients of this award become famous figures of the Hong Kong film industry like Anita Yuen, Shu Qi or Cecilia Cheung.
