Even if he is Gay doesn't mean he has to kill himself. Is he engaging in extreme sports by the river?

MILITARY DOCTOR WHO WENT AWOL
Family of SAF doctor lost touch after Oct
He had sent them e-mail message a month after leaving to say he was well and not to look for him

THE family of Captain (Dr) Allan Ooi, who was found dead under a bridge in Melbourne on March 3, heard from him a month after he went absent without official leave from the armed forces last October.
The 27-year-old ignored their cellphone calls as well as their text and e-mail messages for a month before finally sending a short response by e-mail.

'He said he loved us and he was doing well, and he told us not to look for him,' his sister, Ms Lynette Ooi, 24, told The Straits Times yesterday.

The family had been in a tizzy since they received a call from the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) informing them that he had not turned up for work.

Ms Ooi said their parents, obstetrician and gynaecologist Alex Ooi and general practitioner Lucy Ooi, were then in London with her. Their brother, Adrian, 28, was working in the Singapore General Hospital.

Private investigators were hired and a missing persons report lodged with the police, but all they knew at the end was that he had left Singapore on Oct 13.

That day was the last time Ms Ooi heard from him before the AWOL incident. He had sent her birthday greetings via a text message.

'I thought it seemed a little strange because usually he would call me and we would catch up a bit,' said Ms Ooi, a lawyer.

Family and friends flooded his e-mail inbox, pleading with him to return or asking what help he needed to start a new life. They received no word from him.

In 2000, Capt (Dr) Ooi, then 18, took up an SAF scholarship to study medicine at the National University of Singapore. In return, he was to serve a 12-year bond.

This bond was extended by a further three years after he went for a six-month aviation medicine course in London last year. He returned in mid-June and went back to work at the Republic of Singapore Air Force's (RSAF's) Aeromedical Centre in Paya Lebar.

Ms Ooi said he was unhappy at work. 'He was seeing or treating very few patients. Instead, he was doing administrative work, including writing articles for the air force's in-house magazine,' she said.

He had considered quitting his job because of this. His parents backed him, offering to pay off his bond, but he never pushed ahead with the matter, said Ms Ooi.

By all accounts, Capt (Dr) Ooi was a sociable young man who was often featured in high-society magazines here. His friends knew him as an 'all-rounder' who excelled in his studies and sports.

'He would always be the first to cheer us up when we were down, flashing his trademark cheeky grin,' said one close friend.

They turned up in force for his wake yesterday at the family's Moonbeam Terrace bungalow.

In the room where the coffin had been placed, a keyboardist played mournful strains on a piano while snapshots of the young man in happier days - mostly at parties and holidays, and flanked by family and friends - were shown on a television set.

The family was upset at speculation that he might have rung up gambling debts or that he was addicted to online games.

Ms Ooi said: 'My brother would never be that foolish. He always knew what he was doing.'

She said the family was still in the dark about what he had been up to in Melbourne over the past five months.

They went to identify his body and flew it home last Saturday. They also collected his belongings from an apartment in a Melbourne suburb.

Melbourne police are still investigating the circumstances of his death.

cost of medical education in nus and uk

yeah , what if he dun even like medicine, he only did that beco his whole fxxking family in medicine, so for years he force himself beco of family
until he cannot take it anymore


this is a lesson to young boys and gals
never study a course beco of your friend or family
it will come back and kick you in the nuts
pursue your dreams, even if it might fail, better than force yourself to do things you dun like. end up suicide.

Whatever the reason, we should respect his decision and try to respect his family's right for privacy in their time of grief, even though it is inevitable that peope will talk about this case.
What irritates me is the harshness of society in dealing with people who somehow, find it difficult to be in the mainstream, for their own reasons. As we have seen recently, it could lead to the loss of lives. Why can't we be kinder and gentler to people who are finding it difficult to cope for their own reasons?

What further disgusts me is how the sunday times last weekend suggested that he died because he was an avid video gamer. It claimed that perhaps video gamers were more depressed and took their lives flippantly.

So did the shit times present any proof? Any solid link between the death and video games? Imagine how his family must have felt! :oIo:

So he killed himself. That's his choice.

Why can't we worry more for the peasants who have nothing, than someone who had everything when he was alive?

This guy had everything to live for. You don't see peasants leading shitty lives all doing what he did.

If he didn't have money, you think he would have been able to live in Melbourne undetected for so many months?

His money spoilt him rotten. :rolleyes:

People in sgp have to worry about their next meal and this guy can afford to do nothing for so many months.

What's there to pity? :cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:

Agree.
That assumption is totally absurd and should be debunked unless they have other evidence to support it.
