More than 600 people attended last nite wake for teacher Tan Hooi Song.
I went around 9pm last nite with my husband. We almost can't find a parking space.
The time when we reach, they are in the middle of praying (Buddhist chanting).I met many old friends and i believe for tomorrow nite session will be much more people attending.
They have a session (追思会) for tomorrow nite around 8pm, if you plan to go, please try to arrange to take your friend 's car to go together (avoid to drive yourself, the parking space is very limited).
