Up-lorry Ah Nan dies of heart attack!!!

Sad!!!

Veteran getai compere, singer and actor John Cheng, known affectionately among his fans as Ah Nan, has died of a heart attack.

For decades, Ah Nan has been a familiar sight in his trademark multicoloured suit on Getai stages during the annual Hungry Ghost Festival.

In 1998 John branched out into acting, scoring a role in local production Money No Enough, followed by another role in Liang Po Po the next year.

Cheng is best known for portraying ah beng 'gangsters', a reference to his alleged past career as a loan shark. In I Not Stupid, however, he went against the grain, taking on a minor role as a police officer tasked with rescuing hostages.

His death was reported on Lian He Wan Bao's facebook page this morning (Jan 22), where many of his fans expressed their condolences.

I knew him back when he was working at a car workshop at Sin Ming Industrial Park. He was a bodywork repair guy, and was good at it. Sad to know he has passed on.

From every disaster, there are always very meaningful moral stories behind it. In this case, the compassion towards animals will gives you longevity.

RIP ah nan...

another son of Singapore passed away before his time. A colourful character who always made the audience laugh.

I like his acting, very natural, unlike all those star winners in Mediacock. Singapore has lost a very good actor.
Life is short, enjoy and live to the fullest.

Was Heng Kee. Now Guat San Siah.
