SINGAPORE — The fatal shooting of a British doctor in South Africa has triggered an outpouring of condolences and tributes from the alumni of Raffles Institution and the former Raffles Junior College who knew him when he grew up and studied in Singapore.
His profile on professional networking platform LinkedIn stated that Teoh studied in RI and RJC from 1996 to 2001 before he moved to the United Kingdom, where he obtained a medical degree from the University of Edinburgh and continued to live and work there. Mr Kevin Siew, who said that he had known Teoh for over 28 years, shared how he had “many deep and meaningful conversations” with Teoh as they were growing up, describing Teoh as a good listener who was “always such a joy to be around, and such a steadfast friend through thick and thin”.
“All his teachers loved him. His friends in school all liked him,” Mr Wong wrote, adding that he lost touch with Teoh after they went to different universities but reconnected a few years ago when they lived in the Greater London area.
