Where
I am........
I graduated from the National University of Singapore,
from the Department of
Information Systems and Computer Science.
What I
did........
Back in my army "daze", I was
trained to be a scout ( not boy-scout ) and
became a team leader. I served most of my term in 1st
Battalion Singapore Guards after almost a year of
on-course training. To be frank, unlike many I enjoyed
myself tremendously. During my tour, I visited Thailand,
Brunei and Taiwan. However, amongst them Brunei was the
worst. Throughout all my time in national service, I
experienced the hand of God in my life protecting me in
all my trainings, exercises, runs, driving etc. I
remember once, for instance, I was on my first heli-rapel
jump. I was lowering myself onto the ski of the
helicopter about to descend. However, the rope was slack
and I could not maintain the 'L-position'. I slipped and
did a somersault in the air 40 m above ground. Whew! What
an experience. I thank God for He caught me in mid-air
and gave me back my grip enabling me to descend safely.
Ask me why I think all these are enjoyable I would say
it's because of my platoon mates...and of course my God.
How it
happened........
I first heard of Jesus Christ when I was
in De La Salle primary school. Back then we had mass
every friday and as a school kid I was rather receptive
and had a child-like faith. I did believe that Jesus
Christ is God and I prayed to Him every now and then. But
it was only in my secondary two year in Hua Yi that my
dad's friend came over to our place to share with him
about the good news of salvation in Jesus Christ.
Surprisingly, my dad decided then to believe too ( he was
a free thinker before ). So praise the Lord as for him
and his household we all became Christians. From then my
family has been attending Queenstown
Baptist Church at 495 Margaret Drive road. ( The

However, I only became more involved in
serving God when I was in Anglo-Chinese Junior College.
There on the very first day of school I joined the Campus
Crusade for Christ ( CCC ) ministry and got to know many
Christian friends with whom I still keep in touch.Those
two years there were fantastic.
I am said so much about myself and I
would like to hear from you too. So if you have any
comments I would be most glad to hear it. By the way
before I go, if any of you would like to know what it
means to be a Christian do drop me a mail or visit the this site. It might
change your life........
