A*Star graduate scholar dies
Dec 6, 2009

AN A*STAR graduate scholar studying for her doctorate in Sweden died a week ago after fainting on the way to school.

Miss Terry Huang Ying Ting, 24, was studying at the Karolinska Institutet, one of northern Europe's top medical universities. Her heart had suddenly stopped, reported Shin Min Daily.

Her family last heard from Miss Huang on Nov 26, when she made a routine call home during a train ride to school. She sounded fine. But two hours later, her parents received news that their daughter had been taken to hospital after fainting.

They flew to Sweden to be with Miss Huang, who died five days later on Nov 30. Doctors said she had suffered a cardiac arrest, according to her father, who said his daughter had been in good health.

Miss Huang graduated from Britain's Imperial College two years ago, where she studied the use of the body's immune system to reject cancer. Her graduate scholarship was under a tie-up known as the A*Star-Karolinska Institutet PhD Programme, which accepts only students with good honours degrees.

Miss Huang's wake started on Sunday night at the Singapore Casket in Lavender Street. Her body will be cremated on Tuesday. In her obituary in the Sunday Times yesterday, her parents said: 'Dearest Terry, our treasured child, Like you always did, you graduate ahead of the class.'

That is the same institute where the other A* scholar who stripped naked in public attended. Is there something about the climate there or the institute? Were they exposed to some kind of drugs as guinea pigs? One died and the other did a crazy act. Might be a good idea not to send your children there for the time being.

Had she taken drug? Or she has AIDS?

It's all that Ang Moh food. The western popular culture that have invaded SG have changed our diet especially in the last 1 - 2 decades. Now just look at the news, our NS man dropping like flies when running IPPT. Something unheard of a decade ago

I don't think her parents are "arrogant", this is bitter-sweet comment, the early and premature death of this unfortunate scholar did "graduated" out of life ahead of her class and peers-she may be the first to die.

We must take care of ourselves, knowing at all times if we miss the next breadth we die.

This is the reason why S'pore females should do NS too. In addiition to levelling the playing field, her heart condition would have been detected during the medical examination for her intake.

Graduated ahead but life was not extended for her to take care of her parents .

Very sad to chase the modern trends of the world . But forgotten the most essential aspects of life . Self preservation .​

When I was doing my NS, SAF was using 2nd jet fighters, tanks,...

Nowdays they buy only the best. Regulars are getting decent salaries, but nothing has changed for NS guys.

NS men are still treated like Sh**.

hi there

1. well, probably, she was the one who died first in her class.
2. the other thing is that her parents literally bragged of her accomplishments.
3. one can be top of some class but never has the chance to lead and live life.
4. rip.
