On 2 November 2025 (Sunday), I ticked off an amusing item in my Bucket List, to be invited to and participate in a Talk Show. Not just any talk show. This Talk Show is a one-of initiative by Temasek Trust. When invited, I was honoured and immediately accepted. Temasek is an established and respected brand powerhouse in Singapore.
“Come Together: Live At Temasek Shophouse” was a three day talk show and music extravaganza celebrating Singapore’s music and memories. I talked about my life and my rock photography journey.
Nice and extremely proud that my beloved Family came to see their Dad’s “moment in the Sung” (family name pun intended).
At this extravaganza, I caught up with old friends and made new ones. My Special Thanks goes out to Clement “Count On Me Singapore” Chow, Suhaimi Yusof, Sylvia Toh Paik Choo, Larry Lai, Jessica Tam, Irene Ang and Ang Peng Siong.

Me talking to funny and affable Suhaimi Yusof (above image). Talking about hanging out and photographing my music icon buddies, Blondie, during their studio recording of their best selling “Pollinator” album in New York City.
Me talking about hanging out and being “mateys” with music goddess Dame Olivia Newton-John (above image). I spoke about my proud moment to be featured in her best-selling autobiography, “Don’t Stop Believin'”. I love how the stage backdrop resembles a jukebox.
