MEETING OUR FORMER FIRST LADY

Puan Noor Aishah was our late first president's wife. When I noticed her talking to my aunty, I immediately whipped out my camera and requested for her photo to be taken. She graciously agreed with her demure and inviting smile.

We were on our way to attend a wedding at the Asian Civilisation Museum when my aunt and the first lady were waiting for my cousin to pick them up. I have met the former First Lady before, but never had come this close. It was a golden opportunity not to be missed.

The wedding? A touch of English in a museum setting. Lovely and romantic!

Hi Azizah,

My name is Faris Mokhtar, and this might seem random, but I chanced upon your blog while googling Puan Noor Aishah's name. I am a contributing writer for an online news site InSing.com and was formerly a reporter for Yahoo! News Singapore. You can google my name for verification.

I'm interested to interview our former First Lady and would like to get in contact with her, which is why I'm posting my comment here. Thus, it would be of great help if you can get me in contact with her? I can be reached via email at farismokhtar01@gmail.com. I look forward to your reply, thanks!
