I believe I know of him and his brother. Judoka at old RI (Bras Basah Road)
Yes. I recall he took part in the '73 SEAP Games.

i have a lot of things to say about this. i have a friend who topped his primary school, even to the extent that he got gold trophy for his academic studies, went to SAP school and later in life have to jump bail and run road to china. another friend, ex RI boy, i think studied too much and turned berserk, now hanging around and not working. i believe in destiny, some pple enjoyed when they were young and later in life have to pay back. some are borne too smart and become crooks.
my neighbour, same story as my 1st friend mentioned, got medals and trophies for academic achievement in primary school, in the end turned crazy.
i also believe that personal upbringing is more important than academic achievement. i have seen numerous risk taking characters become successful in life whereas the more mundane ones just work 9 to 5 desk bound jobs...
They voted for oppo but kept quiet like bodoh bodoh. Look at the results of 2011 GE in East Coast GRC. PAP nearly lost it to WP even though this GRC got high percentage of middle and upper middle class.
How come your friends and neighbours all siao siao cases? Do you ever have any normal friends?

Siow Ting Tong like to make friends with siao siao ones. They can speak each other's language.
I'm not sure the fear is groundless. I have heard from others about some family members losing their job because of who they didn't vote for.
I heard, he says, she says - it is exactly these types of hearsay fear-mongering that the PAP loves to see the population believing and that continues to give them the upper hand.
Teo Chee Hean is a rear admirer from SJI lah. Get your facts right.
"Teo was educated at Saint Michael's School and Saint Joseph's Institution, before being awarded a President's Scholarship and Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Scholarship in 1973 to study in the United Kingdom at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. ........."

Casanova Tey Tsun Hnag also from Raffles right? Darinne Ko from RGS really stick together brother and sister
There was an ex-RI boy who flew a helicopter and sold it to Indonesia. His brother was a Rhodes scholar. Another brother killed his girlfren and made it look like a drowning lost at sea to collect insurance. There was an ex-RI boy who hang himself.
There are ex-RI boys who have been convicted and gone to/going to jail. I know of top boy (President scholar etc) in my year ended up in an ordinary pedestrian job in Ozz without any ambitions. So much so that RI stands for Rascals' Institution.
Ah..Loo Choon Yong's brother.
Loo Choon Beng aka Fatty Loo would have made it to its Hall of Shame.

Best replyChow cheebye screwball no names mentioned nothing at all who do we know this RI boy is?
Look if you want to talk about employment or whether being in an elite school gurantees you success in life of course not. The only guarantee in life is death and taxes. Must be really humbling for a jobless ex RI boy to go yes i was from RI and i am jobless now but still does not guarantee anything.
BTW let's look at your story title again. Death of an RI boy with no next of kin. Then you ask is this becoming prevalent.
Honestly what do you mean by this? Do you mean to say that all because someone comes from RI he is supposed to have his next of kin living?
So someone that comes from an elite school is supposed to have his next of kin still alive or he should know who they are assuming he isn't an orphan or a loner.
