SG Stories - S1E7: Low Kah Meng, former Defence Engineer
Despite being a trained engineer, Low Kah Meng now spends his retirement learning all he can about Singapore’s culture and history. He has spent more than a decade as a docent in museums, he conducts heritage tours in the Kreta Ayer region, and is even learning Cantonese opera from a legendary doyenne! He shares his story with CNA938’s Eugene Loh, beginning with how his father provided for the family by making paper flowers, which eventually led to him studying in France for six years.
