BREAK FROM SPORT
In April 2022 he announced that he was taking a break from the sport to focus on his studies and completing his national service. "Unfortunately I will be taking a break from full-time training to finish up on my studies at Republic Polytechnic and Singapore Sports School, and to also fulfil my national service duties. [I'm] super grateful to all the athletes, teammates, and coaches that I have met during this period that made my training and racing so much more enjoyable." (Instagram profile, 17 Apr 2022)

HEALTH CONDITIONS
He was born with a club foot, respiratory distress, haemolytic anaemia, and a congenital heart disease. As a child he improved his balance through dancing as well as skating. "I wasn't able to balance well before [because of his club foot] and had to watch out for myself more. I tried to make use of my dance skills to help as much as possible. It had already gotten better before I started ice skating, but ice skating helped improve it further." (straitstimes.com, 02 Jul 2019)
