Last week the mass media reported that the Court of Appeal has upheld the death sentence meted to Canny Ong’s murderer after he filed an appeal. It has been three and a half years since the incident and I was still engulfed with sadness.
Canny was my ex-classmate and a good friend of mine. Her murder was a shock to us all. It’s true what they say that the wound has healed but the pain is still there. And I don’t think it will ever go away. We’ll always love and miss you, dear Canny.
So sad to have a close friend die. Even more to have it come from a murder.
Hope you can find peace. Will pray for you.
The Giddy Tiger says: Thanks for keeping me in your prayers. God bless.
Yeah…her death really shocked me due to the way she was murdered. I was in Perth then and it really made me think if I should ever return to this country where I was born…..
The Giddy Tiger says: The news spread like wildfire. So what made you return?
Coz of my PiggyBeng lor! He refused to return to Singapore so I got stuck in Penang now!
