Obituary – Today we mourn the passing of Feed Me To The Fish
A day has passed and no more news from Fish. His blog is filled with condolence messages to Mrs Fish and the family. It is sad that our social media has lost a booming voice in defense of the common Singaporeans. His last stand was in Hong Lim Park on Feb 16. He was not a lone. His family was with him, and the 4000 Singaporeans that turned up to keep him company. It was an opportunity I missed to meet this honourable man.
Fish will be remembered by all the keyboard warriors in cyberspace and all those who read his blog and are touched by his humble sincerity to fight for the average Singaporeans. I can still remember him singing with gusto from his troubled heart,
‘Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of angry men
This is the music of a people
Who would not be slaves again!
When the beating of the heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes’
Fish was very happy that night after the Worker’s Party reclaimed Hougang in a by election. He was joyous as he shared the moment with the people on the streets of Hougang and his video with all in cyberspace.
Bless you Fish. RIP.

I just hope this sad news is not true.
how old was the bloke and what illness did he die from ?
Should be in his early 60s. Have been nursing a heart problem as disclosed in his postings.
Fish had heart trouble for quite a long while. My guess is that his heart failed him. RIP Fish. Hope your family did not really feed you to the fish. God Bless your soul.
maybe this chap had been watching too many xxx-rated videos(japanese kind !) on the internet and got too excited ???

This is bad taste and beyond the pale.
11.19 am u think with his passing its very funny is it. Disclose your true identity if you have balls. Or the last time u check, are your two tiny still with you?
okay now. everyone here tells who they really are and what countries they re from. really ?
Condolences to Mr Fish and his family.
Really will miss his postings.
RIP
yahoo (sg) website doesn't have this story. why ? yahoo(sg) website editors, like everyone in this region, have been reading the you-know-which-one sgnews website all the time to get interesting stories to post.
We have lost a true Singapore son. We have lost a brave soul amongst us. We have lost an influential voice in cyberworld. He has left a legacy for all future Singaporeans to emulate and aspire. Our hero indeed!
My condolences
He was a voice that spoke truthfully and with valor
He will be missed :(
His family has requested anonymity as they mourn his passing, otherwise the turnout at this honorable man's wake could outnumber the turnout at HLP 16-2-2013. RIP Mr Fish. Your incisive writing will remain in our hearts
so, does this mean his obituary will not be appearing in the ST ?
RIP Mr Fish. I am going to miss your postings. My condolence to his family.
Gallantly he fought, against the odds.
Not against enemy, it was for dignity.
Not for himself, it was for others as well.
He did it and we witnessed the good deed.
Now, he rest in eternal peace.

Goodbye to a brave soul. A person with a sense of humour sometimes, when he talks about his impaired heart. Never knew he would be gone so suddenly. He really spoke for what many people had in their minds but do not know how to put into words. Always can be trusted to put forward his thoughts when important issues are touched.
Rest in peace Mr. Fish. Your battle against injustice is now over, but not the spirit of your convictions.
He will be remembered as a very brave & upright man when compared to the old hero. Hope he will invite the old hero to join him sooner!
11.37 no need to be sarcastic lar or u also no balls. Did u check your two tiny still attach or not?
Just pop in again to Fish's blog and am glad that the bloggers are paying respect to Fish like a family of friends. It is good that bloggers could feel this way, the lost of Fish like he is one of us.
Cheers.
My sincere condolences Fish.
I think we can not be certain that fish is gone
Very sad to hear this news, you are the second blogger to announce his demise. Rachel Zeng was the first.
I was hoping that its not true that he will still be around to cheer and enlighten us, singaporeans on for the 2016 GE.
His presence will surely be missed.
RIP and God bless Mr Fish and his family !

If I am not wrong, Fish only had secondary education but he can write so well, his posts are always very interesting, straight forward, easy to understand, sometimes witty with sense of humour but more importantly, he speaks for people (like me) who have a lot to say but do not know how to put it down in writing. I really enjoy reading his articles. I hope his passing is just rumour.... And if this bad news is true, condolences to Fish's family and RIP, Fish, I am sure you have gone to a much better place, you will be missed.
It takes a brave soul to stand up against the Establishment. He cared very much for the wellbeing of his grandchildren and young Singaporeans.
RIP.
I could not refrain from commenting. Well written!
Here is my web site :: best diet plans
goodbye from a reader from johor, m'sia.
People need good jobs not levies from cheap foreign workers, that could depress their pay and that away their jobs?
Those heartless idiots who make fun of one's passing, will also make fun when their own family members pass away.
Be Happy.
Felt so sad. Missed his fish blog. Condolences goes out to his family indeed.
Good bye fish ��
