Tay Ping Hui tells fans he’s just an actor, stop the obsession, stalking & suicide threats, pay more attention to those around you, especially your parents
Actor Tay Ping Hui said that a male fan attempted to see him recently and is probably the same one who, in 2016, wrote a suicide note that had bloodstains on it. The male fan, pretending to be a graduate from the same school as the actor, reached out to Tay’s friends and tried to get a basketball game going.
“Basically he wanted to know when we would play and then appear at the same place,” Tay, 51, told Shin Min Daily News in an article published on May 10 (Tuesday). The actor, who is known to be direct and outspoken, made a direct appeal to the fan, calling his actions a “waste of time.”

Woman left family for guy with criminal record, who’s back in jail, asks advice: ‘How to mend relationship with family without hearing “I told you so”?’
A woman wrote on the NUS Whispers Facebook page on Wednesday (May 11) that her family had been “super against” her relationship with a man with a criminal past, to the point of “kicking me out of the family because they wanted nothing to do with anyone with a criminal record.”
And despite her attempts to explain that he had changed and deserved a second chance, her father would say things like “it’s possible for people to change, but people rarely do” and “it takes a different kind of screw up to make a mistake to land you in jail.” The poster wrote that she made “a big stink” by calling her family names, and finally, left. However, she added that what her father said has come to pass, and the man is now back in jail.
