THE TEMASEK REVIEW

The true voice of Singaporeans for Singapore

Life Transformer: 75 year old Ah Pek still working to support grown up children

December 2nd, 2008 |

Author: Your Correspondent

Background:

75 year old Mr Lai has 5 children. His family fortunes changed after his 2 youngest daughters committed suicide one after another. His wife, eldest daughter and third son were traumatized by the events and became mentally unstable as a result. His eldest daughter cooped herself at home everyday while his son talks to himself. Both are permanently unfit to work. Mr Lai now works as a karang-guni man from dawn to dusk daily to earn a living in order to support his family.
