I would like to offer my condolences to Mr Freddie Choong and Mdm Elsie for the demise of their beloved son, Khuat Hock. He will be missed by all who have befriend and loved him. I have known Khuat Hock since schooling as both my family and his are from Penang. He was a gentleman and a very humble person. I was indeed shocked to read in the newspaper about this terrible incident and hope that God will punish those who have done so bad to this wonderful person.
ReplyDeleteKhuat Hock, wherever you are, rest in peace.
To the family of Khuat Hock, be strong and god bless.
From your longtime friend,

More than just a man with a brilliant mind and a huge heart, Hock was a dear friend and mentor.
ReplyDeleteI knew him for about ten years and we spent many happy hours together discussing the state of mankind, spirituality, philosophy, history, finance and such a wide variety of topics it’s impossible to list them all. He mentored me in business and my life improved as a result. He was a friend to my wife, a “jolly uncle” to my son and on his last visit at Christmas, delighted in playing with my baby daughter.
Moreover, Hock was more generous than any person I have known. He was fond of befriending travellers and learning about their culture and background. In his personal life, he treated everyone as an equal, always listening to other points of view and never putting himself in a superior position – although many other people with his incisive mind and encyclopaedic memory do that routinely. We often sat down to eat at restaurants with staff and strangers and Hock would always pay, despite polite protestations.
But more than any of this, Hock was a dear friend to me and his death leaves a gaping hole in my life and that of his large circle of friends. Hock, I am sure I will never meet another person who lived as large, yet trod as lightly, as you did. I love you, my brother and I shall never forget you.
