    1 (a) According to the information from the question‚ Hei Lau’s letter amounted to an offer to sell his second-hand car and the offer would remain open for one week. Although Chiu Chor made the first letter to Hei Lau for inquiring “whether he would take HK$40‚000 for the car”‚ the original offer was still valid because this inquiry was a mere request for information about the offer rather than a counter offer‚ it does not imply a rejection of the offer. An example of a mere request is the case

    • 5 Pages

    Deontological moral theory is a Non-Consequentialist moral theory. While consequentialists believe the ends always justify the means‚ deontologists assert that the rightness of an action is not simply dependent on maximizing the good‚ if that action goes against what is considered moral. It is the inherent nature of the act alone that determines its ethical standing. For example‚ imagine a situation where there are four critical condition patients in a hospital who each need a different organ in
