Hi! Kung Hei Fat Choy and happy 2004.
Is it a Bright-capped Cisticola?

First, notice the olive-green wings and back. Also the brownish colour of the breast. Other characteristics are the crests and the "wiskers", which are very appearent from your photograph. For Bright-capped cisticola, the subject is too large (> 5 inches) also, the tail does not brownish edge and face is not grey as in cisticola. Hope it helps.
Oh, a little self-promoting: check my lesser work of the same bird here:

Great shooting anyway, pal.
Griffin.
