Passing of Xinyao Pioneer

I read with sadness that Xinyao singer, Yan Liming passed away recently. I grew up listening to Xinyao songs, or Singapore Chinese folk songs. She sang many local drama theme songs and many of my favourite Xinyao songs like Happy Trio. If you ask me what are the things that remind me of Singapore, I will say Xinyao as it is part of my childhood and part of Singapore Chinese culture. 

I read that a group of Xinyao singers like Liang Wenfoo will be planning a memorial singing event to remember Yan Liming on 14 Oct at Capitol Piazza. I try to attend because I enjoy listening to Xinyao songs and they reminds me I'm in Singapore. 

Yan Liming is the lady in red.
