Woman gets to take photo with SM Lee for second time in a decade
The Straits Times
|April 21, 2025
A routine shopping trip at Hougang 1 mall on April 20 turned into a thrilling encounter for Ms Choy Ning Zhen and her nine-year-old daughter Hayley Ng.
Ms Choy, a professional from the tourism and attractions industry, was at a Fair Price supermarket when she spotted Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong.
"Mr Lee!" She called out excitedly. "I took a picture with you when my daughter was in my womb. Now she is here!"
SM Lee turned to the mother and daughter, and asked the Primary 3 pupil of Nan Chiau Primary School where she was studying, and at what level. Beaming, he posed for a photo with them.
Ms Choy, 38, rushed back to him shortly afterwards when she found on her mobile phone the photo that SM Lee had taken with her a decade ago.
Looking at the photo, SM Lee quipped: "We were both so young back then, and you are still young now."
