claimes she will be Lee Hung - It must be Lee Hung (4) cause she been in "From the Highway" too - but her Name is not on the poster in prominent position - but who the hell is that Baak Ling with only 1 credit who looks like a female name? (Ling) I grabbed from the forum this portrait and added it to the movie which is faster and directly than first upload to webspace and then insert the link here...
Lee Hung

That sure looks like Lee Hung (4) to me. Perhaps she was credited as Baak Ling in this film.

Baak Ling is identified from a reliable Expert : kenichiku !!
She's Taiwanese star Pai Ling (Bak Ling in cantonese).

Can't claim scholarship for this one Heinz because I'm not very familiar with this 60s Taiwanese actress or know her filmography outside of seeing 'Pai Ling' being the way she's been credited in her Hong Kong publicity for her sole HK-Taiwan co-production credit 'Redbeard' that I own myself. It does have a stage name ring to it (but then so does 'Li Hung'; see below). Never seen 'Redbeard' to compare her with anyone else however I did see 'Highway' theatrically as a kid but that's about it.
Interesting that you mention our friend Falkor, besides seeing him posting some of his official Cathay publicity materials online a few years back, I suspect he's closer to being correct than we can ever be as I recall him owning a set of 35mm reels of 'From the Highway' being one of his 'restoration projects' over there yonder in the UK. If anyone would know, he would be the one to discern the 'Li Hung'/'Pai Ling' connection as an AKA but certainly your article scan already states exactly that: 'æ
