I was asked to use one word to describe E-Jay by Dr Chee during 1 of the workshops we attended, I came up with “Eloquent E-Jay”.
It is precisely of E-Jay’s eloquence in writing that caught my attention in a popular forum back then in 2006. That was how we both got to know each other.
E-Jay never fails to come to my defense whenever he sees or feels someone is making nasty remarks about me. He is very protective of me like a brother will for a sister..
E-Jay never fails to lend me his listening ear whenever he sense I am feeling down. Once, he even chatted with me till the wee hours of the morning, despite he having a long day later. I am truly very grateful and appreciative of his patience and kind words of support encouragement he has shown me.
Just the other when the F4 met up for a get together lunch, E-Jay presented me with 3 boxes of Belgium chocolates for my birthday knowing that I love chocolates. I was very touched and I realize he’s been giving me chocolates for my birthday since we know each other. As I aged, my birthdays are celebrated with family and friends over lunches and dinners, presents are rare, it is touching to note that E-Jay seem to be the only friend that still buy presents for me.
E-Jay, if you are reading this humble article of mine, I would like you to know that I am glad to have a friend in you and I sincerely thank you for all the patience and support you have given me. Not forgetting your kind and comforting words of encouragement and listening ear.
From the bottom of my heart “Thank you very much E-Jay”.

Yes, friendships are important. Often, good friends are the ones who stand by us in times of trials and tribulation.
You are fortunate to have found such a friend in E Jay.

Hi Jas, Seelan and CSC,
Thank you very much for all your kind words.
Jas and I have known each other for close to 3 years now, and over time she has really gotten to know me inside out, to the extent she scored full marks in the “know E-Jay” quiz on facebook!
I’m just glad to be a listening ear to my friend Jas, it’s the least I could do for an activist mother who is bravely stepping out into the fray to stand up for the rights of Singapore citizens.
Jas, you have so much more life experiences compared to a bookworm like me, so I don’t have that much advice to offer you, but just know I’ll always stand by you whenever you need me.
Our activist group is really made up of great people. I’m so happy to be friends with each and every one of you!

I think E-Jay is more than a friend.
Also a comrade. A buddy.

I came to notice E-Jay and you through Sammyboy coffeeshop forum. Both of you are good debaters. you are very sharp and witty while E-Jay has very sound reasoning power and analytical mind. Even though I seldom visit that forum nowadays (I don’t like the layout after they changed it
, I always visit Sgpolitics and SDP websites to learn a lot of things from you all.
I wish all of you success in your struggle for democracy.
