Thank u chow Meng for sharing “focus on what is left”. I have recently lost my mother and was deeply traumatised with regrets and While trying to get over the grief, saw this brighten me up. Cos Chow Meng went thru such deteriorating of health but presses on.👍🏻
One of the best and my favorite Mediacorp actor growing up. Inspiring to see him staying so positive and doing well in business. AND so humble, truly inspiring!
One of my favourite actors. Very talented & humble. I watched all episodes of Mr Kiasu. Entertaining. I’m a 76 year old auntie😊I’m glad that he has a positive outlook 👍🙏
He's an inspiration to all of us. What he has achieved in the years he was unwell far exceeds those ppl with good health. That's the amazing part. Let's support him. Jiayou 💪 💪 💪
When I was a child, I was such a huge fan and he was my favourite actor! Though I do not watch much Ch8 shows, I am still rooting for him and hope that he continues to do well and have a wonderful and meaningful live with his loved ones! Jiayou Chew Chor Meng!!!
We complained over small things like mrt crowded, food not nice, etc but when u get this kind of medical condition, those stuff are nothing compared to the challenges these folks faced on a daily basis...I like what he said "dont focus on what u cant do but focus on what you can do "...He's an inspiration to us.
Chew chor meng, you are such an inspiration. You definitely give hope to others. Truly love your spirit and your tenacity to continue to keep going n pursue your dreams despite what you have to go through n endure. Deep Respect 👍👏👏👍
Chew chor Meng , you are an encouragement. Lots of people face difficulties in life with sickness and special needs. And you have a positive mindset, I am inspired by what you shared God will see you through. A better tomorrow and focus on what is left . Jia you.
Thanks CCM for your message of positivity in times of personal crisis + how God has been such a key factor in helping to accept our challenges in life.
Sumiko, i've been very impressed with your work. From the days you wrote in Straits Times. Until now --seeing you. Your forte and genre is to seek out inspirational and often poignant stories that a leave readers with gratitude and humility, as in my case. Keep it up! My best wishes to you, Prayers for the continued wellbeing of all your readers and their families and yourself.
That is fine philosophy, much wisdom. However, here's some more wisdom - Why is so much of young Japan in a party life, shopping, traveling, but not many marrying and having children? No children, your money is free to be spent on buying lots of things. It is estimated that if Japan continues not marrying, the birth rate terribly low, there will be no Japan by 2050. This is also a problem now around the world. Of course, a lot of people in Japan think this is not a problem. They are the young in Japan partying away their 20s, 30s, 40s.
Well he has raked enough to even show off his 3-storey Bangalow recently garner through alot of Sympathy publicity campaigns. A fact check showed that Kennedy disease patients have a life expectancy that is normal, although a small percentage of patients (~10%) succumb to the disease in their 60’s or 70’s due to swallowing complications (aspiration pneumonia, asphyxiation) resulting from the bulbar weakness. The are so many other diseases that have more severe symptoms and even lower life expectancy. Meanwhile many decent ordinary citizens struggle daily to support themselves and their families. These are the people that I would salute too and have lunches with but certainly not him. Ordinary Singaporeans are not stupid and we know who to empathize with and how to help those people who really needs help outside the MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) groups or organizations that exploit peope through brandings and profit-sharing system that is often untenable in the long run.
Wth? Clearly u lack empathy. Why is it a contest? No one is comparing between illness n diseases.. The fact is any kind of illness whether the most severe or not, takes its toll on the patient. I hope karma hits u n get the same illness..we'll see if ur response changes then. Get off ur high horse, yes there are many ppl suffering but wth u doing for those besides running others down? U help the needy? Based of u comment, u lack kindness n empathy to do so. FYI, I'd rather live in a hdb as a healthy bodied individual than a sick one in the bungalow.. So don't see the need of bringing his house up.
You’re very blessed with a wonderful family . Good spouse and beautiful girls. Abundant of blessings have showered you in every angle - wealth , business acumen and prosperity - all over you. You’re indeed a great actor , businessman and motivator . Cheers !
What a horrible person you are to make this kind of bitter comment that shows such a lack of kindness and empathy. We don't need him nor want him to be sick in order to support him.
If ur gna use God's name n grace in ur user, act like one who preaches it. God asks u to look inwards before u look outwards n criticise others. Whether he is generous to help others, is between him n God. U should do what u can to feed the needy n poor. God say only the rich can help?

Jealousy is a disease by itself. Cheers and let go the past
Hmm.. Kennedy disease is a slow progressive neuromuscular disease. Usually the lifespans of patients are quite good, >90% will live till 70s...
Lots of $$$$$$$$$$
Feed the poor and the needy!!!
