In 1996, he was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Hong Kong Film Critics' Association. In 2003, he was given the Professional Achievement Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards. Sek Kin died on June 3, 2009 at the age of 96. He was a highly respected actor who made a significant contribution to the Hong Kong film industry.
