School holds memorial for teacher found dead in her home
KUALA LUMPUR: A school recently held a memorial service for a teacher who was found dead alone in her home.
In a Facebook post last night, the school said the ceremony held on Monday was filled with sorrow and remembrance for the late teacher, identified as Lo Kwan Fong.
At 7.30am, teachers, students and guests gathered in the school hall for a moment of silent prayer.
"Images of Madam Lo appeared on the screen — her familiar smile and gentle eyes — each frame a cherished memory that warmed our hearts," the post read.
The service featured tributes from the principal, board chairman and representatives of the parent-teacher association.
Photos and videos shared by the school showed students and staff moved to tears as they watched a video commemorating Lo's time and contributions at the school.
The school said Lo's warmth, humility and dedication to education had left a lasting legacy.
"Though she may no longer be with us, her kind teachings, humble example, and tireless dedication to education have left an indelible mark on the hearts of all who had the honour of walking alongside her.
"Farewell, Madam Lo. You will forever remain in our hearts."
In earlier reports, the police are still on the hunt for the victim's next of kin as her body remains unclaimed.

Retiree loses over RM530,000 to Facebook investment scam
JOHOR BAHRU: A private sector retiree lost RM535,766 after allegedly falling victim to an online investment scam promoted via an advertisement on the Facebook application. Seri Alam District Police chief ACP Mohd Sohaimi Ishak said the police received a report from a 57-year-old local man on Tuesday, who claimed losses exceeding RM500,000. He said the victim had come across a share investment advertisement on Facebook on March 13 that promised lucrative returns within a short time, and clicked on the provided link out of interest. 'Subsequently, the victim made 26 payment transactions into five different bank accounts between March 13 and June 5, totalling RM535,766. The victim was also asked to make additional payments to withdraw the so-called 'investment profits', but those requests were never fulfilled,' he said in a statement today. Mohd Sohaimi said the victim only realised he had been duped after repeated attempts to recover the investment funds proved futile. 'Preliminary checks via the CCID's 'Semak Mule' platform found that all five accounts involved had a total of 22 police reports linked to investment scams,' he said. The case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating, and police are also looking into the possible involvement of mule account holders.
