Sad Story of Goh Kah Keow

Anyone who has read the story about 74 year old Goh Kah Keow must surely have felt a sense of injustice.

$400,000 Done in a Day (Straits Times 29th Jun 2014)

This is a thrifty elderly cleaner, who had her life savings of $400,000 cheated by a group of con man from China.

Even though two of the five con artists were eventually caught and sentenced to a few years of jail, that does not bring any of her money back.

The three fraudsters who were not caught must surely be out there enjoying their ill-gotten gains.

Instead of just feeling a sense of injustice, what if some of us do something to help the unfortunate victim?

If 10,000 people donated just $10 each, she will be able to get back $100,000.

I contacted the journalist who wrote the article and she is helping to consolidate donations for Goh Kah Keow.

Anyone who would like to make a donation can write a cheque payable to Goh Kah Keow and send it to:

Bryna will consolidate the cheques and pass it to Madam Goh next week.
