KOTA KINABALU: The wedding reception of former Sipadan hostage Noel Fong Yin Ken and Yumiko Kitaura at the Pacific Sutera Hotel on Sunday turned out to be a reunion of sorts for several former captives and their negotiators. 

Lee Hock Leong and Kua Yu Loong, who with Fong and 18 others were grabbed from Pulau Sipadan by Abu Sayyaf gunmen in April 2000, were among the 300 guests.
