Finding Books for the Son of a Noble Frontline Nurse

During yesterday’s Teban Gardens walkabout, my team met Mdm Yang and her son.

We had a great chat with both of them and learnt that Mdm Yang has been working as a nurse for over 18 years. We are very thankful for her service as a front-liner especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
She is a working mom with four young children, and shared about the challenges in retaining good domestic help and the paucity of readily available student care services in the neighbourhood.

Her son Xiang Yu shared that his favourite book series is the The Diary of a Wimpy Kid. I managed to source for books that were not in Xiang Yu’s collection, and delivered them to him this morning. Look at his happy smile!

This is our little token of appreciation to his mum’s contribution during the pandemic, and to encourage Xiang Yu’s love of reading!
