My mother, who passed away peacefully and without any illness on Monday 27 December 2010, was interred on Thursday 30 December 2010 at about 2.30pm at Choa Chu Kang cemetery. She was 85 years old.
Although I, my brothers, my sisters and our families are grateful that she did not have to suffer before leaving us, her demise brought sorrow, grief and pain to all of us. However, we remained emotionally strong because of the love, care and support generously given to us by our relatives, colleagues and friends.
Liang Ming and I were especially consoled, touched and humbled by the tremendous and spontaneous support, encouragement and concern we received from members of our taekwondo family. That makes us feel highly privileged and proud to be part of this special family.
I am wondering if my mother knew something I did not know. If she had not insisted that I continued with my involvement in the sport, I would have given up the sport when I was a blue belt. If that had happened, I would not have known that the caring and thoughtful spirit of the taekwondo family existed.
Ming and I would like to take this opportunity to record our heartfelt gratitude to members of our taekwondo family for their attendance at the wake, donations, condolences and wreaths during our bereavement. Our special thanks go to Mr Milan Kwee (STF President), Mr Ernest Koh (former STF President) and Mr Edmund Tan (former Management Member) for attending the wake and the funeral and more.
We wish that the taekwondo family spirit will persist.

More than 120 members from the national training squads, demonstration team, TEAMgOLD, Assisi Warriors and Singapore Taekwondo Federation (STF) Management Committee attended a simple X’mas Party organized by the STF for the group to let their hair down.
The event held on 23 December 2010 at the National Training Centre (Whampoa) was kicked off with a short speech by the Mr Milan Kwee, STF President. He went on to carve a turkey to signal the start of the buffet dinner.
The evening turned out to be a fun one for all.
While the young ones reveled in their games and exchanged gifts, the not-so-young ones touched base and tried to outdo one another in their own contest. It was simply ‘drinking’. For the accompanying parents, they enjoyed themselves by watching their kids having fun.
Here are some snapshots of the fun-filled party.
Mr Phua Huat Chuan, outgoing Principal of Broadrick Secondary School was conferred with a 2nd dan honorary black belt by the Singapore Taekwondo Federation (STF) on 19 October 2010 in recognition of his outstanding contribution to the development of taekwondo in the school.
Mr Phua had, among other contributions, initiated the setting up of the school’s taekwondo CCA; procured funding for the purchase of training equipment; and encouraged students to take up the sport as their CCA. Most importantly, Mr Phua promoted the sport through the school’s PE programme which meant that all students would be given a chance to experience the sport.
STF 2nd Vice-President, Mr RA Jeyaraman, presented the certificate, uniform and belt to Mr Phua at the school’s event on 22 October 2010 at Wavehouse on Sentosa Island.
The STF wishes Mr Phua the best in his new appointment as the Principal of Regent Secondary School – the school which hosted the Inter-School Taekwondo Championships in 2009 when taekwondo was included as a trial sport for the school sports calendar.
