[steffychun]

The Briton on board the AirAsia flight QZ8501 has been named as Chi Man Choi. He is thought to have been travelling with his daughter, Zoe, on tickets bought on Boxing Day. He is believed to hold a British passport but lives in Singapore with his family. Channel News Asia has more details:

According to a copy of the passenger manifest released to Indonesian media, Mr Choi and Zoe bought their tickets on Friday (Dec 26). According to the manifest, they were seated in the first row, in Seats 1B and 1C.

According to his LinkedIn account, Mr Choi was born at Hull in Yorkshire, England, and graduated from the University of Essex in 1988.

He was Unit Managing Director for Thermal Services at energy firm Alstom Power, a position he held since July this year. Prior to that, he was based in Singapore, where he was a senior executive at Alstom Grid, according to his LinkedIn profile.

Channel NewsAsia understands that Mr Choi’s wife had travelled back to Singapore from Surabaya earlier with Zoe’s older brother.

Hello, obviously this guy's parents were Hong Kongkers migrated to UK.

His name is Chi Man and surname Choi. Chinese in Western countries put their surname last to be in sync with the Western world naming style.

Choi Chi Man in Cantonese is something like a 蔡X文。X (I dunno)

 

[Spock]

Zoe’s older brother

Will he be serving NS when he turns 18?

How many foreigners are there in SG enjoying the security provided by NSmen while not shouldering any obligations?

The idea that father mother don't fly together is good if young children are at home but if all are traveling might as well go together if anything happens then all can go together

Absolutely Agree With These Couple Of Points.

Sinkie turned Brit.

which part of the highlighted part of the article you dun understand to claim Mr Choi was a Singaporean turn British?:oIo:

 

[eatshitndie]

if he were born in kedang kebau, sinkie nurses would have named him chow chee boon. :*:

 

[eErotica69]

the X maybe 智 or 志.

you are right, the way his name pronounce should be Cantonese.

Ditto.

Also to add, if he is Singaporean cantonese, his name would be Choy Chee Mun. The spelling is different from how HKers spell Cantonese names.

 

[eErotica69]

if he were born in kedang kebau, sinkie nurses would have named him chow chee boon. :*:

If spell translating from hokkien is Chua Chee Boon not Chow Chee Boon.

Cantonese 文 is Mun (or HKers spell Man).



Chow (or Chew in hokkien) is 周 and not 蔡。

That's only viable if you believe in the afterlife and somehow a family that dies together will stay together after death.

Many Japanese Buddhists do ritual family suicide for this reason.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinjū

Lovers committing double suicide believed that they would be united again in heaven, a view supported by feudal teaching in Edo period Japan, which taught that the bond between husband and wife is continued into the next world, and by the teaching of Pure Land Buddhism wherein it is believed that through double suicide, one can approach rebirth in the Pure Land

Some of you need to get out more. There are plenty of Asian FTs with Brit citizenship. Some of them are second generation and natural born citizens. Hongkies, Sinkies, Viets, Ah Nehs, those from eastern Europe etc.

Really a frog in a well, making mountain out of molehill.

I wouldn't put it as harsh as you, but I agree that many of us needs more international exposure.

Is not just going overseas for holidays, but get to know the locals.

If not read more or know more people from overseas.

Not about after life, but rather dependency issue. Example if parents die, who look after the kids?

I am not talking from the "afterlife" point of view
