Ah Meng died this morning

Singapore’s beloved primate at the Singapore Zoo past away this morning due to old age. She was approximately 5o years old - equivalent to a centurion in human years.

Rest in peace, Ah Meng. Singapore will never forget you and the contributions you have made to our tourist industry. It is sad that she’s gone, but at least she left behind a huge family with four children and six grandchildren.

RIP, Ah Meng. She may not belong to our species, but she sure deserves a place as one of those who've helped place Singapore on the tourist maps.
